Hi Gillian
You might want to read this post, which I have raised on the Legacy
Facebook page.

I am just back to my master PC, the other was on my laptop, and still
running at v339. This works with my looking at my fathers hints with no
problem. Looked at my cousins hints, with a hint searched record that
was quite old, probably from 2019. That gets this error the first time,
looking for it from the index
{"statusCode":400,"error":"Bad Request","message":"Invalid cookie
header"}
Switched to the individual view and tried from there, and got the
Loading Hints... display. Looking at the http request, they are both the
same except that the erroring one does not have the last field for _k=

Looked at the hint record and it was old. Checked the Hints processing
monitor and it showed a few waiting requests. Waited for these to clear.
The hints flag disappeared from her record and then reappeared a couple
of minutes later, with a current last searched date. This one does work,
but note that the first field, which I assume is the individual, has
changed.

I assume that the partnerid identifies either me or you.
So, I think that there is a problem with old Hints records which have
not been researched recently and might contain out of date information.

Hi Brian,
I've now tried many Hints following your advice, that is, deleted all cookies
for fmp, and so far everything's going well. Thank you very very much.

Not any kind of expert but that message looks like a problem with the web
browser you are using. It is reporting an error with the findmypast web site or
with the string legacy is sending to the site. Since it is reporting a bad
cookie I would first try deleting all the cookies in your browser pertaining to
findmypast.com. If that does not solve the problem try clearing your internet
cache in your Browser it may be trying to re-use a bad link from your history.

Can some kind person please explain to me why I nearly always get this message
when I try to look at a Hint:
Sometimes, but only very rarely, I do manage to get through to findmypast to
see what the hint is.
Findmypast is the only site I have marked for hints.'
