I'm getting this error when the login username and password is correct. Tried it across two different accounts and logging in via .env of through the command line

The same for me. I get this even though the pass and username is correct:

Logging in to Twitter...
Re-attempting to input password...
Re-attempting to input password...

There was an error inputting the password.

It may be due to the following:

  • Internet connection is unstable
  • Password is incorrect
  • Twitter is experiencing unusual activity

The same.
I observed that the browser only automates the step of entering the username and does not proceed to enter the password automatically. After that, the program prints an error message.

I found a workaround that worked for me, by changing the browser to chromedriver in the twitterscraper.py code, you avoid the google sign in popup that blocks the scraper. just comment the firefox driver lines of code and uncomment the chrome driver ones.
