Actual Coding and error

Why doesn't this work?

Maybe I should use the other way to do get file_id instead? But how do I get it?

Try to increase the timeout when uploading files.

bot.send_photo(chat_id=chat_id, photo=open("test.jpg", "rb"), timeout=100)

Are you using a proxy server? It may be the reason behind this problem. Are you trying these codes on your local machine or remote server? If it's remote server, then please try on local machine.

There is nothing wrong in your code.

This error is a temporary error for some users. So, you might want to wait a little..
