Instapy: webdriverdownloader raises RuntimeError

[Alirezamn93]

hi, I've installed InstaPy by pip3
when I run this

import instapy
instapy.InstaPy(username='USERNAME',password='PASSWROD)

I get this error

Error, unable to determine correct filename for Nonebit linux
"/webdriverdownloader.py", line 324, in get_download_url
    raise RuntimeError(info_message)
RuntimeError: Error, unable to determine correct filename for Nonebit linux

what is wrong?

[elvirmuslic]

Your linux is likely not known and you will have to download the mozila webdriver customly and set it up or use it on a machine with ubuntu or similar.

[elvirmuslic]

Nope I was wrong, if you reinstall it gives a similar error on windows too.
RuntimeError: Error, unable to determine correct filename for Nonebit win

I have used instapy gui to be specific

I´m having the same problem like @Alirezamn93, on a Windows 10 build:1903

[t0in4]

sudo vi /usr/local/lib/python3.7/dist-packages/webdriverdownloader-1.1.0.1-py3.7.egg/webdriverdownloader/webdriverdownloader.py

make change in 124 line
download_url = self.get_download_url(version, os_name=os_name, bitness=bitness)
to
download_url = self.get_download_url(version, os_name=os_name, bitness="64")

[t0in4]

if then it will raise such error:
selenium.common.exceptions.SessionNotCreatedException: Message: Unable to find a matching set of capabilities
just install firefox-esr:
sudo apt-get install firefox-esr

sudo vi /usr/local/lib/python3.7/dist-packages/webdriverdownloader-1.1.0.1-py3.7.egg/webdriverdownloader/webdriverdownloader.py

make change in 124 line
download_url = self.get_download_url(version, os_name=os_name, bitness=bitness)
to
download_url = self.get_download_url(version, os_name=os_name, bitness="64")

This fixed it for me on Win10_1909. The line is currently 129 (maybe because slightly other py-version).
After the first start of windows_start.bat one more error came up, but after the second start it worked well (started Firefox and did its thing).

No meu caso tambem resolveu estou win 10

[stefanbschneider]

Isn't this configurable from the quickstart.py somehow? Would be much cleaner than changing source code

[stefanbschneider]

Ok, I fixed it for me by downloading geckodriver manually and specifying the path when creating the InstaPy session inside the quickstart:

session = InstaPy(username=insta_username,
                  password=insta_password,
                  headless_browser=False,
                  geckodriver_path='driver/geckodriver.exe')

I have the same problem

                  headless_browser=False,
                  geckodriver_path='driver/geckodriver.exe')

and for linux how to configure?

sudo vi /usr/local/lib/python3.7/dist-packages/webdriverdownloader-1.1.0.1-py3.7.egg/webdriverdownloader/webdriverdownloader.py

make change in 124 line
download_url = self.get_download_url(version, os_name=os_name, bitness=bitness)
to
download_url = self.get_download_url(version, os_name=os_name, bitness="64")

thanks! this is the solution in both [WIN & LINUX]

[themannuel]

from instapy import InstaPy
from instapy import smart_run

session = InstaPy(username='xxxxxxx', password='xxxxxxx')

with smart_run(session):
session.set_do_follow(enabled = True, percentage = 100)
session.set_do_like(enabled = True, percentage= 100)

session.like_by_tags(['xxxxxxx', 'xxxxxx', 'xxxxxxxxxx'], amount = 150)

comentarios = ['xxxxxxxxx']
session.set_do_comments(enable=True, percentage=95)
session.set_comments(comentarios, media= 'Photo')
session.join_pods()

Could the noble colleagues help me, please ??

[darox]

I'm currently hitting the same issue.Setting the bitness to "64" doesn't help.

Same error on a fresh installation on another machine.

[taffarel55]

I have the same error @darox..

It doesnt appear more: RuntimeError: Error, unable to determine correct filename for Nonebit win

Even setting bitness to 64: RuntimeError: Error, unable to determine correct filename for 64bit linux

I've already:

• [x] Reinstall firefox
• [x] Reinstall webdriverdownloader
• [x] Reinstall instapy
• [x] Use another Linux distro

Hello all, same error also for me : RuntimeError: Error, unable to determine correct filename for 64bit linux
