Failed to login to WeChat Sandbox
Revisiting a project that I hadn't opened for a month or so, I found that the sandboxed sandbox account I had previously set up could not be obtained by visiting; http://admin.wechat.com/debug/cgi-bin/sandbox?t=sandbox/login
Lets me log in through. scanning the QR code, but after (apparently) managing to enter it, the error message "Failed to initialize" appears
This worked before, I wonder if there was an insolvent change to the WeChat platform?

So, I was not able to figure out if / why the wechat.com sandbox service stopped working and if I am an isolated case or is this a common problem
I found that the Weixin sandbox service at https://mp.weixin.qq.com/debug/cgi-bin/sandbox allows me to login / access the same test app linked to my WeChat account so for others, having problems, the answer can be used;
