Hello I’ve tried to login to several accounts but I always got the same error I don’t know why `/home/asteeven/.asdf/installs/python/3.11.0/lib/python3.11/site-packages/requests/init.py:102: RequestsDependencyWarning: urllib3 (1.26.8) or chardet (5.1.0)/charset_normalizer (2.0.11) doesn’t match a supported version! warnings.warn("urllib3 ({}) or chardet ({})/charset_normalizer ({}) doesn’t match a supported " [*] => Error opening file: 433

Hi @shine-jayakumar:

I have managed to solve the problem. You are indeed on the right track when you ask me about the language of my browser (Spanish in my case) and the cookies anouncement. To solve the problem, I have played in two different areas:

insta.py:

def validate_login(self) -> bool:
        """
        Validates login
        """
        wait = WebDriverWait(self.driver, 50)
        user_profile_xpaths = [
            **'//img[contains(@alt, "Foto del perfil ")]', // this line was changed to spanish**
            '//div[@class="_acut"]/div/span/img',
            '//img[@data-testid="user-avatar"]'
        ]

On the other hand, I think the cookie ad was also annoying for some reason, so I’ve added a click to the option that rejects cookies:

def login(self, validate=True) -> bool:
     """
     Initiates login with username and password
     """
     try:
         self.driver.get(self.baseurl).
         **self.wait.until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, '//button[@class="_a9-- _ap36 _a9_1"]')')).click()
         time.sleep(3) // reject cookies ** 
         self.wait.until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, '//input[@name="username"]'))).send_keys(self.username)
         self.wait.until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, '//input[@name="password"]')')).send_keys(self.password)
         self.wait.until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, '//button[@type="submit"]')))).click()
         time.sleep(4)

Hope this can help to all people here. Thanks for your great work!
