I am trying to run LibreTranslate on my workstation , however while running the main.py file , It gives me HTTPError 403: Forbidden showing problem in language_translate_fallback function and create_app in main function . I suppose there is problem in API fetch , however I haven’t made any changes in any of the API calls .
