panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference

[bartley20]

I've got the Tor expert bundle running, setup my users.json, but when I go to run the script, immediately after I get the 'Login Successful' message, I get this panic message and the script stops. Any ideas whats going on?

What did you do to fix this?

My log looks similar, except it fails to log in also. The json is filled in correctly:

It was my BMP file. I would try using a different image. When I used a different image and https://products.aspose.app/imaging/image-editor/bmp to scale the BMP down to 32x32, the error went away

Sadly that made no difference, but the website will come in handy, thanks 👍 I think the runtime error may have to do with failing to login, but I have no idea how to fix this. I have used the exact same layout as used in users.json.rename
