See original GitHub issue

            mylogs.info(f'Getting New IP')
            driver.proxy = get_random_proxy(proxies)
            while True:
                driver.execute_script("window.open('https://api.ipify.org?format=json')")
                driver.switch_to.window(driver.window_handles[-1])
                json_response = json.loads(driver.find_element_by_tag_name('body').text)   
                if json_response == 0:
                    mylogs.error(f'Proxy not working retrying...')
                    driver.close()
                    driver.switch_to.window(driver.window_handles[0])
                    continue
                else:
                    proxy_ip = json_response['ip']

Thanks for asking, but it’s fine - I do it for the love of it 😁

If the response is not returning valid JSON, then json.loads() will raise an exception - it won’t be 0. So try wrapping the json.loads() call in a try/except - for example:

# Get Proxy
mylogs.info(f'Getting New IP')
driver.proxy = get_random_proxy(proxies)
while True:
    driver.execute_script("window.open('https://api.ipify.org?format=json')")
    driver.switch_to.window(driver.window_handles[-1])

    try:
        json_response = json.loads(driver.find_element_by_tag_name('body').text)
    except ValueError:
        mylogs.error(f'Proxy not working retrying...')
        driver.close()
        driver.switch_to.window(driver.window_handles[0])
        continue

    proxy_ip = json_response['ip']
    mylogs.info(f'Your new IP is: {proxy_ip}')
    driver.close()
    driver.switch_to.window(driver.window_handles[0])
    break
