Bot Error - Node App Instance 0 loop [SOLVED]

[god-father-xuez]

I cant seem to pass this error - Codebase, wallet and dependencies installed but still cant seem to get the bot to work. These errors are found within the pm2 monit section

Seems like Yimp|NPM is causing this issue?

solved in discord DM, suggested adding new folder name logs to ignore watch list

[telostia]

where to put logs folder? in root? I tried that, didnt help solve it

[MSFTserver]

@telostia doesnt matter just has to coincide with whats inside ecosystem.config.js so pm2 knows where to write the logs to

[telostia]

whats odd is that. even with the right ecosystem.config.js configs. its stil giving the error... nodejs updated, tried on both windows and linux , updated pm2. there is something really wrong here. Heres the details to the file: module.exports = { apps: [ { name: 'tipbot', script: './bot/bot.js', cwd: './botfolder', instance_id_env: '0', watch: true, ignore_watch : ['node_modules', 'logs', 'Downloads', '.git'], error_file: './tipbot-err.log', out_file: './tipbot-out.log', env: { NODE_ENV: 'development' }, env_production: { NODE_ENV: 'production' } } ] };

and heres whats in the default.json : "moderation":{ "pm2Name": "tipbot", "perms": ["Admin","Moderator","Community Leader","Bots", "bots"], "botDev": "bots", "logchannel": "ommited", "botspamchannels": ["ommited"] }

Heres the screenshot of it constantly restarting pm2:

Heres the error from the log:

Those are just pretty much default values. Am I doing something wrong there?

[MSFTserver]

did you rename the config file...says it cant see one

[telostia]

ecosystem.config.js? yes. those are the first things i do. If I haven't then there wouldnt be any log files generated right?

[telostia]

ok I found the problem. cwd: './botfolder', should be pointing to ./ since I only renamed the ecosystem.js and its looking for the file in botfolder folder.

[telostia]

hm.. that leads to another error:

WARNING: NODE_APP_INSTANCE value of '0' did not match any instance config file names. WARNING: See https://github.com/lorenwest/node-config/wiki/Strict-Mode TypeError: bot.user.setActivity is not a function

Don't know why its not finding app instance 0. It is in ecosystem.config.js name: 'tipbot', script: './bot/bot.js', cwd: './', instance_id_env: '0', I haven't made any changes to the bot.js yet also.

[MSFTserver]

thats a normal issue with, the config package conflicts with node.js config it looks for so they sorta clash but nothing to worry about the other issue is completely different, probably has to do with setting up the bot properly with discord

[telostia]

ok I just had to remove the yarn.lock and yarn install again. works :D thanks @MSFTserver !
