"Something went wrong in Telegram's side."

Something went wrong in Telegram's side. This is the full exception:

Cannot cast NoneType to any kind of InputPeer.

I had this problem while importing a whatsapp chat into my saved messages.

Could you, please, attach TLImporter-log.log file?

Are you trying to import the chat into a group/channel? Are you using Secret Mode or normal mode?

[ferferga]

I need to rebase the Telethon version and I was just planning to do it today, so maybe it fixes itself in the new version I republish.

[chromaticsequence]

I'm using normal mode and I wanted to import it to my saved messages. I tried selecting group/channel earlier but I didn't know, that I needed two telegram accounts. (I think it is saying it before but I didn't read.)

[chromaticsequence]

Okay great, I'm gonna try it with your new version.

[ferferga]

Okay great, I'm gonna try it with your new version.

The new version has been uploaded. Let me know how it goes! :) 👍

Closing as there is no more news from @UnlegitApple . Re-open again if you (or somebody else) face this issue again.

Hi ferferga! Trying to upload messages to saved messages in this format

17/01/2019 16:06:02: Giulia: Message

1) Tried 3.0-3.0.2 version no spaces in file path

2) Tried - Exact names (manualy created file) with, without : 17/01/2019 16:07:02: Giulia: Message 17/01/2019 16:08:02: Me: Message

3) Tried - file from examples

Still same error Cannot cast NoneType to any kind of InputPeer.

Any advice for me? Thanks

I've been able to send messages into "saved messages" by using my number as a 2nd contact

[ferferga]

It has been always a requirement to have both contacts added as mutual contacts to have all the features properly working. In fact, I thought it was written in the documentation somewhere but I couldn't find it, my fault (so, you pointed me to another thing I need to improve)

However, something changed and it seems to give problemas as well even for messages sent to yourself (LoL), so, for sure, something changed in Telegram's API to trigger this issue.

Thank you very much for discovering the solution yourself and sorry for all the inconveniencies. I already started cleaning up the code this past weekend just after you posted your issue (there is already a pile of issues I've been neglecting). The code is a total mess, stuff that happens when you start learning a language and you come back after some time, I suppose :D I hope to have finished the clean-up after the end of my exams.

Have a nice day!

Btw, you had to convert the WhatsApp messages timestamps, right? As explained in #2

I would really like to know if WhatsApp regex changes from country to country, because I'm starting to have this impression as well.

[GothLab]

No need to be sorry. I appreciate your work. You ve got a great tool, man, thats for sure. it saved loads of time transporting 30k data lines.

I cant tell about whatsup chat structure, Ive copied "15/02/2018 16:52:04: ferferga: " from examples folder and added it to every line. For some reason writing it manualy didnt worked. =\

I wonder wherever it's possible to choose an group chat id instead of user, but I guess it's a spam tool with that.

_Also liked that if you closed the program after it send without hitting enter - it saves all user data which is convinient.

_flood limitations changed somehow so it triggered arround 1997 value, so it took 14 hours to transfer.
