InstaPy Like Photo => No Like at Instagram

[FreakyBoy]

Hey I have a problem with the bot... the console output say that I liked a photo

INFO - --> Image Liked!
INFO - --> Not commented
INFO - --> Not following
INFO - [10/10]

But at Instagram (iOS App) I can`t see any Like :S
What do I wrong ?

InstaPy configuration

`
from instapy import InstaPy
insta_username = '_name_'
insta_password = 'password'
session = InstaPy(username=insta_username, password=insta_password, nogui=True)
session.login()

session.like_by_tags(['berlin'], amount=10)

session.end()
`

ok I test the same configuration now on my mac and it`s working o.O
problem with nogui param ?

i have the same issue on aws, when i run it.
in about 50% of the cases it says:
INFO - --> Image Liked!
INFO - --> Commented: "..."
INFO - --> Now following
but did not like. (follow and comment are working well)

can anybody fix this?

Same problem. If I try to like a photo from iOS device I receive an error stating the action was blocked, you can select ok or report the problem. It appears to be a soft ban. Waiting for reply of the report problem selection.

@gitpatrickhub that`s not a 'soft ban' problem. I can like all Photos from the iOS App without a problem.

It could be a "soft ban" based on IP @FreakyBoy How many pictures are you trying to like at a time?

[FreakyBoy]

@RomeoJuliett I try it also on a AWS Instance (with the nogui param) and it doesn't work.

2 Server:
AWS Instanc with Ubuntu
vServer with Debian Stretch
booth with a different IP and nogui param = don't work

1 MacBook with 10.12.5 and without the nogui param = work

I migrated my server to another DigitalOcean region because this was happening and it's still happening so it's clearly not a ban. I have even liked photos from the new IP address using VPN.

Tested and works!
