Unable to Send Message — Request Hangs Indefinitely on Localhost
Hi team, I'm running Evolution API locally for the first time using Postman. Everything is working well — I can successfully get open instances and access the API endpoints.
However, when I try to send a message using the /message/sendText/{instance} endpoint, the request does not return any error, but it takes an extremely long time and eventually nothing is sent. It just hangs forever without completing or timing out.
I'm sending a message to a valid number using the correct payload and headers. Is there anything I might be missing? Any help would be appreciated.

The same is happening with my instance. Now, after restarting, the Berlin instance QR code is also not generating
Running in docker I solved by updating this environment variable. CONFIG_SESSION_PHONE_VERSION. Update it to this value: - CONFIG_SESSION_PHONE_VERSION=2.3000.1020885143
I was actually going to suggest exactly that, @mokbhai — updating the CONFIG_SESSION_PHONE_VERSION did help generate the QR code, but unfortunately it didn’t solve the issue with sending messages.
It solved my issue..
Steps I have taken:
Disconnected my WhatsApp.
Updated env CONFIG_SESSION_PHONE_VERSION=2.3000.1020885143
Restarted Container (as I am using Docker)
Connected WhatsApp again..
It started working..
CONFIG_SESSION_PHONE_VERSION=2.3000.1020885143
absolute legend! any hints on how to get this magic number in the future in case this happens again?
