Can send messages only after restart #142

Closed 00sapo closed 1 year ago

00sapo commented 1 year ago

Messages can be sent only after restarting for me. Is this intended? In this case, it should be added to the "installation" section in the Readme...

Thank you for the report. Does this happen once right after scanning the QR code? Or every time after starting Pidgin?

Only once after the qr code

hoehermann commented 1 year ago

It is not intended. I have noticed it happening, but I do not want to spend much time on fixing it. For most users scanning the QR code is a one-time thing. I want to add it to the read-me, though.

This is happening to other people, too: https://github.com/tulir/whatsmeow/issues/62

Although not a technical solution, this behaviour is documented in the README, which is "good enough" in my book.
