Could be a coincidence/red herring, but after manually logging into my epic account via browser, I was greeted by a new end user license agreement which I accepted. After that restarting the container successfully processed the checkout.

Feel like we should introduce a new config item allowing service to send push notification on errors so they can be dealt with. This 401 simply fails silently.

Yes, it was the same for me. I had the same 401 error and then logged in to Epic Games and went to the store. There, I was also greeted with a new End User License Agreement, and after accepting it, I was able to grab games again. Many thanks for that!

Thank you! This same thing happened to me. 401 error. [2024-12-24 15:43:47.798 -0600] ERROR: Entitlements/cartOffersValidation: Request failed with status code 401

I was already logged in on my browser with cookies. Browsed to epicgames and the EULA popped up. Hit accept and closed the tab. Restarted the container and now it's working again.

I agree would be nice if these errors did not fail silently.
