Yes, the function has changed. Now it's another.

I think it is now called:
window.Store.getProfilePicFull = window.mR.findModule('getProfilePic')[0].getProfilePic;

Just change this in Injected.js

[hamza-masoud]

I think it is now called: window.Store.getProfilePicFull = window.mR.findModule('getProfilePic')[0].getProfilePic;

Just change this in Injected.js

just comment the line until the error fixed

My fix will work with latest version but will fail with previous versions. In case you want to be sure it won't fail, just comment the line as someone has suggested until we all have the latest whatsapp version...

Man, I would say that most of the problems are not too relevant, however, if you wanna minimize some of them, keep all messages controlled by some third party like RabbitMQ..... If you do that, you will "guarantee" that messages will be delivered once the application is back to work.

Of course that you have to make sure to be notified when your app is down, so what I have done, is send messages to myself for each client, once I don't get any some of them, my status app send a pop-up notification, and send an email as well.

Can you share your whatsapp version. I think i have the latest but still it doesn't work. I commented it out for the time being and it works but still want to know why it didnt work.

I think you can excute npm install whatsapp-web.js, not excute npm install the version in package.json. this is my version that can work.

Correction on your code:
NOT WORKING: window.Store.getProfilePicFull = window.mR.findModule('getProfilePic')[0].getProfilePic;
WORKING: window.Store.getProfilePicFull = window.mR.findModule('getProfilePicFull')[0].getProfilePic;

Yes, for while it has been working. @JohnYepthomi @ItsMisa Thanks

It is working, thank you so much!!!

[lorenzoarellano]

Well we have something in common here, Almost every week the library changes, how many of you guys have this bot in production?

I do.

[AdrianoRobson]

I do too

We certainly have something in common. Whatsapp-web.js and puppter always have a problem in production and I make use of this API. Too much headache.

For this case, I was able to resolve this by following this solution:
WhatsAppNETClient/WhatsAppNETClient2#26 (comment)

I thank the community for the help!

That will not solve the problem. 'getProfilePic' will only avoid the initial error when loading the module in injected.js, but it does not work if u actually try to invoke the client's getProfilePicUrl() function, it will fail to retrieve the image.

Use my PR to solve this issue correctly #1362
