Login failed {"username": "", "username": ""}

[Obelisx]

Despite using the exact layout as shown in the original users.json.rename file, the build fails to log into my accounts. I use PowerShell on the directory and have Tor 100% bootstrapped. After getting the following errors, my json file is empty showing just [] (after trying terminal, the users.json does not get reset)

Here is the full log:

It crashes because it couldn't login into any accounts

Instead of PowerShell, I now ran it in terminal, and it indeed said:

C:\Users\X>C:\Users\X\OneDrive\Desktop\reddit-placebot-2023-master\redditplacebot.exe -minX=# -minY=#
panic: Please add users to the users.json file

goroutine 1 [running]:
main.readClients(0xa142380, 0xa128b40)
        C:/Users/X/OneDrive/Desktop/reddit-placebot-2023-master/main.go:55 +0xd00
main.main()
        C:/Users/X/OneDrive/Desktop/reddit-placebot-2023-master/main.go:26 +0x365

But it is strange, because the users.json really has 2 accounts in it. I just succesfully logged in with both of them on the website, so they're also not banned

Edit:

I removed the previous build and downloaded the latest zip to make sure.

Before I was using the 'save as' option to maintain the users.json.rename, but I now decided to rename the .rename through terminal. It sadly didn't make any difference as it still says panic: Please add users to the users.json file, despite using the same accounts.

Edit 2:

Made 2 more accounts, on different IP's, with no cookies/trackers on my device. Being very careful not to 'cross contaminate'. Basically, accounts that could not have been (shadow)banned. Still the same issue sadly. Accounts were of course mail activated and had been active for a bit (following subreddits, liking posts)

You're supposed the rename the file to users.json

Cannot reproduce

You're supposed the rename the file to users.json

Which I have.
