Which error ?

To prevent errors from stopping your code execution, you can put the code inside a try-except block. For example:

try:
   Like function
   Follow function
   ...
except Exception as e:
   print e

this was the error message i recieved:
ERROR - follow loop error unable to open database fileO - --> Total people followed : 54
Traceback (most recent call last):

whenever i set up the script to like or follow it runs hlaf of the script and returns with werror messages. I am trying to make the script run for a number of hours through out the day and used the correct codes to to achieve this but it just seems to run the whole script only a smal part of it. I figured if i cant fix the error maybe i can set up a code at the start of the script to ignore the errors and hopefully move onto the next part of the script

try:
Like function
Follow function
...
except Exception as e:
print e

i will try adding this to my script and see if it helps

i will update you guys shorlty and thank you for taking the time to help me with my code you are the ony help i have lol
