Live Logs Doesn't Work

[RaihanStark]

Everything is good! except live logs. It's just appear endlessly loading on my server

Linux Ubuntu 18.04

double check the location of the Logs, InstaPy recently changed it.

[RaihanStark]

I think it all good... the path is {instapy root folder}/logs/{myaccountname}/general.log ... If it's incorrect path, why the Statistics is working

[converge]

by instapy root folder I mean the root folder, I can see that you're pointing to a specific log file.

In short, the dashboard will:

1. load your root folder (eg: /home/converge/InstaPy)
2. search log folder inside the root folder to send it back to Live Log
3. load the database in root folder/db/instapy.db

That's why it's important to point the root folder.

Yes... I set root folder correctly. It pointing to my InstaPy folder sir
check my configuration: https://imgur.com/a/wEPDtqo .

p.s: I censored my DigitalOcean IP on the screenshot

The setup is correct, I see that you're running InstaPy as root right? It's better to run it with a normal user.

In short, if you run "npm start" using a normal user, and /root/InstaPy/logs/your_username/general.log has a root owner, instapy-dashboard will try to load the log file that requires root permission.

Same issue here.
Im using it on my VServer and want to access the Page over the Internet.
Can that be the Problem?

How to config the .env file for that case?

[converge]

did the tests pass? npm run test
You just need to add your server IP to allowed hosts list.

[schoppi91]

Thank you for your fast reply.
Yes the test passed and my servers domain and its public IP is under allowed host

.env File

# MacOS: /Users/your_user_name/InstaPy
# you can also check this information when running your quickstart.py,
# the first lines contains
# -> Workspace in use: "/Users/converge/InstaPy"
INSTAPY_FOLDER=/root/InstaPy
# if using only on localhost, keep it:
ALLOWED_HOSTS=http://testdomain.eu:3000 http://localhost:3000 http://93.xxx.xxx.xxx:3000
REACT_APP_API_ENTRY_POINT=http://localhost:3001

# basic setup, ok to keep it ->
# Node port
NODE_PORT=3001
# ReactJS Create APP port
PORT=3000

[converge]

in your case, REACT_APP_API_ENTRY_POINT should be:
REACT_APP_API_ENTRY_POINT=http://93.xxx.xxx.xxx:3001
