How old is your account? Do you only like? I set mine bot's configuration to 30 follows, unfollows and likes per day, and it's working fine, my account is over 2 years old. I'm going to increase them gradually, but not up to 100, at least in the following 4 months. I have the bot running since 4 days.

zacharimayer commented 5 years ago

@marcularis04 My account is 4 years old, I've been using previous versions of this bot for over a year now and never had any problems with liking/following at all. I have a raspberry pi with an old version of the bot that I didn't update and it still works there. But when trying to run the latest version on my PC to test it and I automatically get that error message.

Mehranp commented 5 years ago

same ...

marcularis04 commented 5 years ago

Did you run them simultaneously? If you would update the raspberry pi's bot, would you get that error?

zacharimayer commented 5 years ago

No I didnt run them simultaneously, the bot on my raspberry had stopped working days ago so I tested on local machine. I updated the pi's bot and same error occurred so I had to roll back to previous version that had the UI. Would love to sort this out if anyone has any idea what to do!

gabrielecard commented 5 years ago

+1 getting exactly the same error old account

marcularis04 commented 5 years ago

Lol, now I am facing this error too. I've kept the numbers all at about 40, so I don't think this would bother Instagram. It's an error of the bot's algorithm. :(

zacharimayer commented 5 years ago

Yeah let's hope we can get a solution soon on this. Bot is completely off for my account for now.

marcularis04 commented 5 years ago

Yeah, but I think the best sollution to us is to search for another python instagram bot. This one is full of errors, and the support team almost doesn't exist. I am going to search for the best one, and inform you about it. I am also using the Raspberry Pi, and bots are awesome, it gave me a lot of followers since I use it.

zacharimayer commented 5 years ago

I have tried other bots as well with may more features but this one in my opinion is the best. Simple and easy to use, I hope we can get it working again! If you find any other resources please share it!

marcularis04 commented 5 years ago

Lol, today they just officially announced that this project is freezed until they find a good developer team: This project will be frozen until we will find good developers team. We stopped project development. If you want to be in developer team - email me. Use last version on your own risk. So, this bot is shut-down for an undetermined period of time. I will start searching for other bots right now. It doesn't need to be simple to use, I know Linux well and I don't think difficulty is a problem.

marcularis04 commented 5 years ago

Instapy is the answer, now I'm configuring it.

Kobaltauge commented 5 years ago

I tried instapy, but had the same login problems with the authentication and verification. Additionally, instapy need a chrome installed. So it's not feasible for everyone. Don't misunderstand me. I think instapy is a great bot and the developer is a great guy.

soulpawa commented 5 years ago

Instapy

you are going to have the same problem with all other bots, the problem here is not THIS bots, it's all automation bots, phyton bots, chrome bots, software bots... etc etc..

zacharimayer commented 5 years ago

The older version of this bot still works for me, it's the new version that is giving me this error.

matiasromero commented 5 years ago

What's version are you using?

zacharimayer commented 5 years ago

The latest one

Kobaltauge commented 5 years ago

I have now updated. And after a repairing the virtual environment it runs. I have 3 bots up and running with 300 likes per day and run. Nor follow. And a telegram channel connected. They run for 2-3 days and suddenly stop. I restart them and everything is fine. But I have a fourth account, that is still blocked. Same bot, same server, same config but only 200 likes per day run. I can't figure out why they behave differently.

zacharimayer commented 5 years ago

updated to neo-instabot latest version, seems to be working now but dealing with new errors, will open separate issues as this one seems to be resolved.
