Instapy: Failure to Load desired amount of Users

Created on 11 Feb 2019  路  5Comments  路  Source: timgrossmann/InstaPy

I have been running follower other users following and have it running to follow 250 accounts. For some reason the program will only grab about 10 users instead of the whole 250 from the accounts.

Also:
I have this same script for two different accounts, but I get the error on only one of the accounts.

This is the error I get when running the script.

Quickstart.py Configuration:

""" Quickstart script for InstaPy usage """

imports

from instapy import InstaPy
from instapy.util import smart_run

login credentials

insta_username = '*'
insta_password = '
***'

get an InstaPy session!

set headless_browser=True to run InstaPy in the background

session = InstaPy(username=insta_username,
password=insta_password,
headless_browser=True,
multi_logs=True)

with smart_run(session):
""" Activity flow """
# general settings
session.set_relationship_bounds(enabled=False, potency_ratio=0)
session.set_skip_users(skip_private=False)
session.follow_user_followers(['***', '****'], amount=250, randomize=True)

Same issue over here. Someone got a solution?

I have the same issue...this happens after the first followed user.

Having the same issue but it's intermittent.
I just changed the user in the session.follow_user_followers and it's running at the moment. Maybe try someone else?

@exporteh yes, it seems to work when it wants to
