Unable to locate element

Hi,

when I execute the script I receive the following error message back:

598 followers 2021-02-15 12:54:29.003589 Traceback (most recent call last): File "followers-scraper.py", line 68, in <module> scr1 = driver.find_element_by_xpath('/html/body/div[5]/div/div/div[2]/ul/div/li[%s]' % i) File "/home/user/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/selenium/webdriver/remote/webdriver.py", line 394, in find_element_by_xpath return self.find_element(by=By.XPATH, value=xpath) File "/home/user/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/selenium/webdriver/remote/webdriver.py", line 976, in find_element return self.execute(Command.FIND_ELEMENT, { File "/home/user/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/selenium/webdriver/remote/webdriver.py", line 321, in execute self.error_handler.check_response(response) File "/home/user/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/selenium/webdriver/remote/errorhandler.py", line 242, in check_response raise exception_class(message, screen, stacktrace) selenium.common.exceptions.NoSuchElementException: Message: no such element: Unable to locate element: {"method":"xpath","selector":"/html/body/div[5]/div/div/div[2]/ul/div/li[1]"} (Session info: chrome=88.0.4324.146)

It seems that there is a wrong path the script is trying to navigate to?
Which Element is the script looking for here?
Can you mayb paste a fix?

Great Job!
Thanks a lot

Any Idea here?

For scrape following you have to change in the for cycle.
From:
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, '/html/body/div[5]/div/div/div[2]/ul/div/li[%s]' % i)
To:
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, '/html/body/div[5]/div/div/div[3]/ul/div/li[%s]' % i)

This will work only for scrape following and not for follower
