Closed hsspratt closed 11 months ago

hsspratt commented 11 months ago

I have been receiving this message all after the following error message was produced multiple times before printing "Failed to apply to job! Please submit a bug report with this link".

Here are some of the ones from the last round:

No error is produced for these specific jobs although when it changed to another page (page 3) the following error was produced:

After which it failed to apply successfully for a job so assuming it is related.

voidbydefault commented 11 months ago

Thanks @hsspratt. Is it unable to apply at all? But, let me investigate this.

hsspratt commented 11 months ago

Never starts off with the error with me. It always applies for some jobs successfully before producing the error. Haven't reproduced the exact same error but almost identical today.

The successful prints:

Hi @hsspratt ,

Please use code tags (those < > in editor window) to keep the thread tidy (I have edited your posts to do the same). About your issue:

  1. I am unable to reproduce the error even after setting-up the bot from scratch.

  2. Based on below, I suspect your Internet to be the issue for not loading the webpage (or element in this case) before the bot attempts a search for it.

 job_el = job_tile.find_element(By.CLASS_NAME, 'job-card-list__title')
.../venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/selenium/webdriver/remote/webelement.py", line 416, in find_element
return self._execute(Command.FIND_CHILD_ELEMENT, {"using": by, "value": value})["value"]
... and so on

  1. Although no one has reported the error, I am making a small change of adding a 2-seconds delay to allow loading of all elements so lag-related errors could be prevented. Downside, further slows down the bot.

  2. I will be updating code on Github after 2-second delay testing goes without issues.

  3. My run so far:

  1. With this, I am also supressing that annoying "Failed to upload..." (no longer serves the purpose).
