whatsapp Periodic logout

It seems like periodically, Whatsapp bridge will log me out.

I will get an {"error":"wa-not-logged-in","message":"You're not logged into WhatsApp. Relogin to continue using the bridge." ... error in the logs and all sent messages will fail with bot replying ⚠️ Your message was not bridged: You're not logged in.

!wa relogin command fixes the issue but it will come back eventually.

Any idea what could cause this and how to fix it? Are there any more info I can give?

The phone was not offline for 2 weeks and I did not receive any warnings about phone connection, so I'm not sure it's that.

Hi, I think I know what the Problem is:

After I changed my Phone Number and therefore the Number connected with my WhatsApp Account I needed to delete and add a new Login, to the bridge. I had the same message when trying to send messages but only in the old Rooms. I then left the Rooms and created new ones with the "start-chat" command and it worked again.
