🐛🐛 session does not persist using LocalAuth id 🐛🐛 #2164

Open andresmv94 opened 1 year ago

andresmv94 commented 1 year ago

Is there an existing issue for this?

Describe the bug

I have been using "whatsapp-web.js" in my application for about 6 months, and yesterday the session persistence stopped working, I am using authStrategy: new LocalAuth({ clientId: user._id }), and with this When I want to use the WhatsApp channel again, I can use it without having to scan the QR again, but every time that I want to use the channel and send messages, it is making me to scan the QR and this was not happening until yesterday

Expected behavior

for first time scan the QR once, and be able to continue using whatsapp without having to scan each time I use it

Steps to Reproduce the Bug or Issue

  1. configure the server in linux to work
  2. configure whatsapp web js with authStrategy: new LocalAuth({ clientId: "some-client-id" })
  3. scan the QR and send a message
  4. reuse sending messages with the same "some-client-id"

Relevant Code

function authWhatsapp (user) => {
    console.log("init authentication");
    const client = await new Client({
      authStrategy: new LocalAuth({ clientId: user._id }), // user = {_id: "1234abc", name: "juan"}
      qrMaxRetries: 3,
      authTimeoutMs: 60000,
      puppeteer: {
        executablePath: process.env.CHROME_EXECUTABLE_PATH, // CHROME_EXECUTABLE_PATH=/usr/bin/google-chrome-stable
        args: ["--no-sandbox", "--disable-setuid-sandbox"],
      },
    }); 

    client.on("qr", async (qr) => {
        console.log("scan qr");
        console.log(qr);        

    });

     client.on("ready", async () => {
        console.log("Wapp web connected");
     });

}

function sendWhatsapp (user) => {
    console.log("try send messages");
    client = await new Client({
      authStrategy: new LocalAuth({ clientId: user._id }), // user = {_id: "1234abc", name: "juan"}
      authTimeoutMs: 60000,
      puppeteer: {
        executablePath: process.env.CHROME_EXECUTABLE_PATH,  // CHROME_EXECUTABLE_PATH=/usr/bin/google-chrome-stable
        args: ["--no-sandbox", "--disable-setuid-sandbox"],
      },
    });

     client.on("ready", async () => { // this is never executed 🫤
        console.log("perfect, your are authenticated, Wapp web connected");
        /*
            code to send messages...
        */
     });

     client.on("qr", async (qr) => {

        console.log("The whatsapp is asking for QR you are not authenticated"); 
        console.log(qr);    

    });

}

for authWhatsapp function:

> init authentication
> scan qr
> 2@Zy5JBs9MeMX0GBeDlNd1....RUI9lbeATZGDNBtx52+29CIw=
> Wapp web connected

for sendWhatsapp function: 

> try send messages
> The whatsapp is asking for QR you are not authenticated
> 2@TYQbrQCmYVbCB0KG...dEy8edXIPh32AiME0=

Browser Type

Google Chrome

WhatsApp Account Type

Standard

Does your WhatsApp account have multidevice enabled?

Yes, I am using Multi Device

Environment

OS: Ubuntu 20
Phone OS:  Android, iOS
whatsapp-web.js version [1.19.5]
WhatsApp Web version [2.2317.10]:
Node.js Version [v19.8.1]

Additional context

remember: this was not happening until yesterday, I already tried setting all the permissions to the .wwebjs_auth folder, and to all its content, but it's still the same, I also notice that in windows (no server -> my personal computer) with exactly the same configuration but using CHROME_EXECUTABLE_PATH=C:/Program Files/Google/Chrome /Application/chrome.exe, it is working correctly, any idea why?

maybe the session files are not being saved correctly in the ".wwebjs_auth" folder, but I don't really know how to look at that part

Update: in other computer with Windows is happenig the same issue so is not the OS.

I am experiencing the same problem. I have been using it for a few weeks without a problem and since yesterday it has been disconnecting me often and it does not notify me why it happens. Anyone else with this error?

andresmv94 commented 1 year ago

The whatsapp version that whatsapp-web.js mark like "working with" is = WhatsApp_Web 2.2306.7, and Now the current WhatsApp Web version is 2.2317.10. maybe something with session was changed

Pudiste encontar solucion??

benjachiban commented 1 year ago

At first I found a solution, for now it's working. In the package.json inside node_modules/whatsapp-web... change the version of puppeteer to 18.1.0

My puppeteer is on version 20.3.0 but the error persists.

@pedroslopez Maybe your help?

Davixe7 commented 11 months ago

UP, session persistence is super unconsistent.

longgtruong commented 11 months ago

same problem

daniloavilez commented 11 months ago

I had the same problem with session in another library, it seems this problem is related to some thing that Whatsapp changed. Maybe it's a false impression I've tested different libraries.

leandrosantoss commented 11 months ago

Hi, I resolved it with permission chmod on both .wwebjs_auth and .wwebjs_cache directories

every restart localauth not working , and send new QR, any solution to this?

myanpetra99 commented 6 months ago

Have you tried the solutions mentioned above? Try updating Puppeteer to version 20.3.0 in Node_modules/whatsapp-web.js/package.json and then run 'npm update'. This worked for me.

bryanfok commented 5 months ago

This is how i fix this issue:

1/ make sure .wwebjs_auth is created after login, otherwise likely your code problem 2/ puppeteer is update 3/ make sure .wwebjs_auth is chmod 777

justoverclockl commented 5 months ago

why this is closed if actually not work?

alechkos commented 5 months ago

the solution is to wait a couple minutes after the first qr code scan to let the session be "populated" properly also as mentioned here the session is being saved in .wwebjs_auth, so make sure that folder is created properly

justoverclockl commented 5 months ago

I scan the qrcode, I get the qrcode, authentications is fine…if after 2 hour I restart the server I need to rescan qrcode, so it’s not a problem related to “wait some minutes”

alechkos commented 5 months ago

@justoverclockl

3/ make sure .wwebjs_auth is chmod 777

Good luck

i've managed this and seems to work but i get

@justoverclockl

thx, done

Did you just change to const INTRO_IMG_SELECTOR = '[data-icon="search"]' in your code as mentioned here? If so you are not using the latest library version and you should apply this:

npm i github:pedroslopez/whatsapp-web.js#main

Also provide the code where you are handling the client state changes

justoverclockl commented 5 months ago

i have github:pedroslopez/whatsapp-web.js#main @alechkos 

const authStrategy = new LocalAuth({
  clientId: "adminSession"
});

const client = new Client({
  authStrategy,
  restartOnAuthFail: true,
  takeoverOnConflict: true,
  puppeteer: {
    headless: true,
    args: ["--no-sandbox"],
  }
});

client.initialize();

client.on("ready", () => {
  console.log("Client pronto");
});

client.on("authenticated", () => {
  console.log("Whatsapp ok");
});

client.on("disconnected", (reason) => {
  console.log("Disconnected:", reason);
});

router.get("/whatsapp/auth", async (req, res) => {
  const clientState = await client?.getState();
  console.log('ClientState: ', clientState)
  try {
    if (clientState === "CONNECTED") {
      return res.status(200).json({
        message: "Login ok."
      });
    } else {
      return res.status(200).json({
        message: "Scan qrcode."
      });
    }
  } catch (err) {
    res.status(404).send({
      error: "oops test error."
    });
  }
});

Same error.. Any solution

tuke307 commented 5 months ago

same for me. the library appears to have problems with multiple projects.

I have two projects:

when the client init is in the library project it cant restore the session, even if i directly specify it.

We really need some solution in here...

I'm willing to assist, just give me the details of the potential issue 🙏

Avivbens commented 4 months ago

OK, I've managed to resolve the issue:

TL;DR Set the webVersion to 2.2306.7

NestJS provider

export const WhatsappClientProvider: Provider<Client> = {
    provide: WHATSAPP_CLIENT,
    inject: [ConfigService],
    useFactory: async (configService: ConfigService) => {
        const logger: Logger = new Logger('WHATSAPP_CLIENT')
        const env = configService.get<Envs>(EnvVariables.NODE_ENV, Envs.Production)
        const args = env === Envs.Production ? ['--no-sandbox', '--disable-setuid-sandbox'] : undefined

        const client = new Client({
            authStrategy: new LocalAuth(),
            webVersion: '2.2306.7', // this keeps the Whatsapp Verison with the latest version worked 👍 
            puppeteer: {
                args,
            },
        })

        client.once('qr', (qr) => {
            logger.debug('QR code received, scan please')
            return qrcode.generate(qr)
        })

        client.on('authenticated', () => {
            logger.debug('Authenticated successfully!')
        })

        client.on('disconnected', (reason) => {
            logger.error(`Disconnected, reason: ${reason}`)
        })

        const prm = new Promise<void>((resolve) =>
            client.on('ready', async () => {
                logger.debug('WhatsApp Client is ready!')
                resolve()
            }),
        )

        client.initialize()

        await prm
        return client
    },
}
