[balrajsandhu007]

no bro

[FancyWaifu]

do sudo nano config/credentials.ini Then type ur info in

[rhuhaan]

@FancyWaifu Can you explain your words clearly ?

[AbraxasMatrix]

@rhuhaan I'm also getting the same error,nano is a text editor,so use it to edit credentials.ini and add your username. I'm gonna try it and see if it works

[AbraxasMatrix]

@bhaskarvilles Ok I got it to work, I went to the home folder,Osintgram folder,config folder and the. Clicked on the credentials.ini file. It opened with vim. To edit on vim you fist have to type the letter E as indicated, you be brought to the file which says username and password. Type in your info. Press ESC to leave edit mode, then type ":wq!" To save and override read only.

@AbraxasMatrix Sorry for bothering you, i'm a dummy, once i open the .ini file with vim where do i type E?

[AbraxasMatrix]

@xoRiddler I saw this video and found it helpful because I had never used vim before lol just don't forget to save with :wq!

@AbraxasMatrix Hi, i see that you used vim to edit the file. However when i opened the file using vim, all i see was a blank file. There isn't any password and username information for us to key in. Do you have the exact commands on what to key in? sorry i am a beginner at this

[Yashhhh25]

This worked like a charm !! Thanks !

[shetfeld]

sudo nano config/credentials.ini

them how do you exit that screen or even save it?

[Yashhhh25]

sudo nano config/credentials.ini

After writing the commands you have to press ctrl+X it will ask you to save it, you should save it as Credentials.ini then you can just follow it along. It is very confusing I agree !

Error: File contains no section headers. file: 'config/credentials.ini', line: 1 yeah exactly same error...anyone help!

[radeonxy]

can someone please tell us how to type our infos in there? like username and password what should we type?

[Mr-White-Devil]

So i actually found what's the problem many people will be coming here seeing video from YouTube or any other sites and would have coded to make directory config if it existed many would have deleted it and made new one and you would have made something like echo "username and all same for password also but the the thing is you don't need to do that and it's what the problem starts after installing or cloning osintgran install python and requirements properly and the go to home - go to osintgram - go to config - you will see credentials.ini go there and fill your dummy insta username and password like Username = blah.blah Password = blah@blah Like this once you filled hit save and start your work on To run the osintgram you need to first Cd osintgram Then - code Python3 main.py "username" Username of the person you wanna stalk without quotation

Thankyou
