Instapy: Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno 111] Connection refused',))

[GriffinCrown]

## Expected Behavior

Session runs and likes 500 photos based off the tag.

## Current Behavior

I am receiving a connection refused error. It ran fine the first time I ran it for 10 likes, I then went and changed the tags and set the like amount to 500. It is now giving me the following error:

What can I do to try and solve this? Let me know if there is anything else that you need!

I had the same issue, posted it and got no reply. I solved this issue by destroying my droplet, got another new one and installed a fresh InstaPy. Make sure you read the docs and download any custom quickstart file you made and upload it on the new server. Hope that helps...

Check your template...most likely your session calls are running outside the smart_run(session) call due to indentation.

See solution in #3311 it worked for me, no longer receiving this error
