Describe the bug

After upgrading WAHA to version 4.3, the WhatsApp linked device keeps logging out automatically and the WAHA session becomes failed.

When this happens, the session cannot recover by itself. I need to log out, delete/restart the session, and scan the QR code again to reconnect WhatsApp.

However, after reconnecting, the same issue happens again. The linked device logs out, the WAHA session fails, and I have to repeat the QR scan process multiple times.

Before upgrading, the WhatsApp linked device/session stayed connected normally.

Expected behavior

The WhatsApp linked device should remain connected and the WAHA session should stay active after upgrading.

The session should not keep failing or require repeated logout and QR scanning.

Actual behavior

After upgrading to WAHA 4.3:

  • WhatsApp linked device keeps logging out.
  • WAHA session status becomes failed.
  • I need to log out and scan the QR code again.
  • The issue repeats continuously after reconnecting.

Additional context

This issue started after upgrading to WAHA version 4.3. Before the upgrade, the session was working normally and did not repeatedly log out.
