Hey @leandromqrs,

We did a quick check and this issue looks very darn similar to

• #1273 - Ability to comment on another users stories?
• #1270 - [BUG] Erro login "Updates to Our Terms and Data Policy"
• #1267 - [BUG] Video upload not working

This could be a coincidence, but if any of these issues solves your problem then I did a good job 😄

If not, the maintainers will get to this issue shortly.

Cheers,

Make sure there is a config path in your running folder.

Yeah but i need to save in other location, all others files from instabot is saving to "data" folder, i put in the base_path for this, only the checkpoint saving in "config" folder, why?? The previous version works correctly

I have the same problem, I pass base_path, but it's replaced when join paths (base_path + CHECKPOINT_PATH). Previously, only the file name was stored in CHECKPOINT_PATH, now there is the full path, this is the problem
