Describe the bug

Even configuring LocalAuth() on the client it does not save my session, before it saved normally without any errors. Now it doesn't work, every time I restart the application I need to connect again.

Expected behavior

Save the session

Steps to Reproduce the Bug or Issue

My options:

const options = {
        authStrategy: new WABot.LocalAuth({ dataPath: `${process.cwd()}/src/Utils/.cache/.season` }),
        puppeteer: {
            executablePath,
            args: ['--no-sandbox']
        }
};

Relevant Code

import WABot from 'whatsapp-web.js';
import { glob } from "glob";
import { promisify } from "util";
const globPromise = promisify(glob);

const getChromePath = async () => {
    const chromeExecutablePath = await globPromise(`${process.cwd()}/chrome/*/*/chrome`);
    return chromeExecutablePath;
}

const createOptions = async () => {
    const executablePath = await getChromePath();

    const options = {
        authStrategy: new WABot.LocalAuth({ dataPath: `${process.cwd()}/src/Utils/.cache/.season` }),
        puppeteer: {
            executablePath,
            args: ['--no-sandbox']
        }
    };

    return options;
}

Just checked the functionality:

const client = new Client({
    authStrategy: new LocalAuth(dataPath: './new_path'}),
    restartOnAuthFail: true,
    puppeteer: {
        headless: true,
        args: args,
        ...
    }
});

The session was stored in new_path successfully The issue is likely in your code not in the library
