error after creating first account

[just-rich]

it creates the first account great. then stops after, like it doesn't loop or something

Getting the same issue as above poster.

More specifically the below error message.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/user/2021/YandexMail-Account-Creator/creator.py", line 218, in <module>
    wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable(
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/selenium/webdriver/support/wait.py", line 80, in until
    raise TimeoutException(message, screen, stacktrace)
selenium.common.exceptions.TimeoutException: Message: 

I'm not familiar with Python so it's difficult to debug. But the first account is created successfully, logged into the terminal, and then the Timeout error occurs.

Yea it won't start on the next account. I'm hoping the developer is still around or if someone can figure out a fix for this, I can't find any other email creators like this anywhere.

Try shooting him a dm on Twitter, he lists his handle in the ReadMe.md. Yeah, I wish I knew python. From what I can see, the scripts are dependent on very specific DOM locations for elements that they take actions on. So if anything changes in the html (which happens often) it would make these scripts obsolete.

I actually did tweet him but he hasnt been active since july

[just-rich]

someone posted a fix and either deleted their message or author did?

i posted a fix and deleted it because it didn't work correctly. you can comment out lines 289-363 and remove appPassword from csvData list, and the script will seemingly create the accounts. but after trying to log in, none of the accounts were actually created. if you have python knowledge, you could play around with this and probably make it work. i no longer need it, so won't be toying with modifications

i think you just need to get it past the "Add picture" html page, which would be the dashboard. once it's at the dashboard, then figure out where the script breaks and just remove that part so it keeps looping

it sometimes broke at the registration page also, when yandex required a phone number. but that was a rare outcome

What was the issue with accounts being created?

I did notice that the accounts this does make, they are auto locked and need to be recovered.

Hello together!
The script did work for a while and it can be fixed easily but all accounts created with this script sadly get flagged by yandex and they will ask you to confirm the account with a phone number. I tried multiple things to prevent this flagging but could not find a solution.

@hendrikbgr Just stumbled over this and tried it out, the account created works fine, however I use residential proxies, so that could be the cause. I'd love to see the script get fixed, if you find the time to get around to do that.

Fixed it myself, replace everything from line 289 to 362 with this:

        appPassword = driver.find_element_by_xpath('/html/body/div[3]/div[1]/div/div/div/div/div[2]/div[1]/div[1]/span').text

        wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable(
            (By.XPATH, '/html/body/div[3]/div[1]/div/div/div/div/div[2]/div[2]/div[2]/button'))).click()

Will look into creating a pull request when I'm done commenting the steps, would also add support for proxies without authentication.

[hendrikbgr]

@UWUplus could you send me a DM on Twitter @hendrik_bgr so we can discuss this further? Just checked your code and it all seems to be working, thanks for that! Are those accounts you creating still working? Mine only got flagged up to 24hrs after creation.

[just-rich]

Thank you for this! Are the accounts still getting locked after creation? They seem to need to be restored or w/e

Anyone know how I can use proxies that don't need username:pass? I tried using proxy:port:: leaving it blank of user/pass but that doesnt seem to work
