I'm trying to log in to Instagram using instapy (0.6.16) using the following code

from instapy import Instapy
InstaPy(username="my_username", password="my_password").login()

The two steps of connection checklist and cookie creation seems to work fine, but I got the following error:

INFO [2023-03-07 14:13:21] [my_username]  - Cookie file not found, creating cookie...

Suggestions?

Same issue. I replaced

    "login_elem_no_such_exception_2": "//div[text()='Log In']",

by

    "login_elem_no_such_exception_2": "//div[text()='Log in']",

in xpath_compile.py and it worked. Seems that the character case changes according to the countries you are executing the script
