Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues while using the Leetcode Contest Ranking Searcher, consider the following troubleshooting ideas:

• Check that your scripts have the proper permissions to execute. Use chmod +x script.py to grant execution rights on Unix-based systems.
• If data isn’t updating as expected, revisit your GitHub Actions setup. Ensure your scheduled pipeline is correctly configured.
• Double-check your data filtering options and ensure you’re entering valid usernames and country names.
• If all else fails, consult the GitHub documentation for any potential API changes that might affect your crawlers.
