Stop! Before you think i didn't informed myself about my problem: I do it and i just didn't fount a solution. AND no this is not a copied question. I know that there are some more questions about the same problem. Ok now I start.
I want to create an Auto-Login for Instagram.com with Python3. (I tried it in VBScript and Failed) I informed myself that iI have to use this to work with websites:
from selenium import webdriver
But on ALL tutorials iI found they didn't had any problems with this, but I got an Errormassegeerror message:
Error Message
I browsed other questions and found this one that should solvedsolve my question totoo, but the Website and the Code they propose didn't solve my problem.
My full code so far:
from selenium import webdriver
from time import sleep
username = "jonasx_yt""username"
class InstaBot:
def __init__(self):
self.driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get("https://instagram.com")
sleep(2)
login_field = driver.find_element_by_xpath('/html/body/div[1]/section/main/article/div[2]/div[1]/div/form/div[2]/div/label/input').send_keys(username)
InstaBot()
How can iI fix this problem?
Edit: I now know that I have to install Selenium first with that code in command prompt:
pip3 install selenium
I did it and watched this Tutorial on YouTube and make it like him, but it just don'tdoesn't work. :(
It prints to Consoleconsole a very long ErrormessageError message:
