Cold init failed

[Tutorialwork]

Hey, when I'm trying to start the binary I get this error.

MAIN    : 2022/07/02 15:30:25 main.go:122: INFO     windscribe-proxy client version v1.0.3 is starting...

and in the docker container I get an endless loop of this error.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Hi!

Likely you have datacenter IP or something like that and you're getting denied by windscribe API. Though, you can run windscribe-proxy on some residential IP (like home IP) and get wndstate.json and then use it with windscribe-proxy in any location.
