I tried this in both PyCharm and Visual Studio. Both gave me the same error

Error refers to something on LinkedIn page not being found. However,I am unable to produce the issue, Bot is working fine for me.

Consider using the updated code from my repo and see if it helps your situation. Don't forget to compare your old config.yaml with the new version (I added a some new functionalities). Keep me posted.

Edit: Please use code tags to wrap the logs so the thread looks cleaner. Thanks.

Also, once you run the bot try not to minimize the browser window or use it for anything else. Let it run as is (if you have to use browser for other tasks, use another window). Sometimes minimizing or changing the size of a webpage changes it content dynamically hence a potential for elements not found.

Try both the tips and let me know. Thaniks.
