Put your config into a yaml validator.

[32Red]

sorry, but how do i do that?

[KarlOfDuty]

[32Red]

[KarlOfDuty]

[KarlOfDuty]

I am not even sure where you got that from, that's not the config, thats not even yaml.

[32Red]

lol it was in the support boi file

[32Red]

could you send the original file if possible?

[KarlOfDuty]

Just delete it and run the bot again

[32Red]

alright

[32Red]

i re-installed it and

[32Red]

same issue 😭

[KarlOfDuty]

I am very confused on what you are doing, just use the config the bot generates for you, stop putting code in it.

[32Red]

so i write it in myself?

[KarlOfDuty]

I don't really know what you mean by that, you have to put in things like the bot token and command permissions yes

[32Red]

can i use the Defualt config as a template?

[KarlOfDuty]

It is the thing you should edit, yes

hmm

[KarlOfDuty]

Just start from the default config and add one thing at a time, then you know what the issue is.

[32Red]

i did that. i went threw it VERY carefully and i found nothing... and it gave me the same message error

[KarlOfDuty]

and what did you add to the config to make this happen? I recommend you just keep the default config and add your bot token for now.

[KarlOfDuty]

I'm not really sure how you are having so many issues with this, there are a lot of users of this bot and I don't think I have ever had anyone with this many issues before.

[32Red]

hmm do you have a default of just the emc supportboi? i can use that for now

[KarlOfDuty]

I can't just give out our passwords and auth tokens...

[32Red]

oh

right

[KarlOfDuty]

Just add one thing, start the bot and see if it complains, then you know there is something wrong with the thing you added and you can tell me what that one thing is.

[32Red]

ok

[KarlOfDuty]

I recommend starting with your bot token and then do database credentials as those are checked first.

[32Red]

do i edit the log channel and stuff?

[KarlOfDuty]

no, just start with the token

[32Red]

ok

[KarlOfDuty]

then do one thing at a time until it breaks

[32Red]

ok good plan

[KarlOfDuty]

And what did you do?

[KarlOfDuty]

ah token

[32Red]

ye

[32Red]

there was nothing else i edited

[KarlOfDuty]

does it even work for you if you dont edit anything?

[32Red]

i just put the token in lol everything else is default but it didnt work

[KarlOfDuty]

like just delete everything from the bot folder except the application and start it again twice

[32Red]

wait i didnt get it

[KarlOfDuty]

I will have to go now so you will have to keep trying on your own, good luck

[32Red]

okay ill try cya

[KarlOfDuty]

if you start it once it creates the config and if you start it again it would try to read that config is what I mean, might be some issue with reading the config at all maybe

[KarlOfDuty]

but yeah cya and good luck

[32Red]

ty

[32Red]
