'NoneType' object is not iterable when downloading instagram posts from a profile #6595
Closed
Description
This happens from time to time, can't be reproduced reliably. Probably some weird response from the server that wasn't handled properly.
Using python 3.11 and gallery-dl source/master from a few days ago.
code gist:
from gallery_dl import config, exception, job, output
output.initialize_logging(logging.DEBUG)
'''(...some unrelated changes to config...)'''
job = job.DownloadJob("https://www.instagram.com/fruits_zipper/")
job.run()[urllib3.connectionpool][debug] https://instagram.fhkg1-2.fna.fbcdn.net:443 "GET /v/t51.29350-15/306484339_505043044793228_7927676318165451687_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_e35_tt6&efg=eyJ2ZW5jb2RlX3RhZyI6ImltYWdlX3VybGdlbi41MjB4NTIwLnNkci5mMjkzNTAuZGVmYXVsdF9pbWFnZSJ9&_nc_ht=instagram.fhkg1-2.fna.fbcdn.net&_nc_cat=108&_nc_ohc=7SPozbveK6QQ7kNvgGbsyjN&_nc_gid=448c0e003351487f8c5efbdf71f65261&edm=ABmJApABAAAA&ccb=7-5&ig_cache_key=MjkyNzExMDQ1MDc4MTIxODc5Mw%3D%3D.3-ccb7-5&oh=00_AYD5FHRi9WcG7sH56TsJjeKCYdhxM2TY4ugD2xxklmyC1A&oe=6754616B&_nc_sid=b41fef HTTP/1.1" 200 39858
