Bot not responding to commands

[jakem72360]

Hi,

I recently installed your bot and added it to my Discord server. To test the bot, I sent a message containing the !autoclean list command and the bot replied telling me that I needed to give it the Manage Server permission. I then created a role with said permission, assigned that role to the bot and restarted the bot.

Now, the bot doesn't respond to any messages sent using the ! prefix despite that being the configured prefix and the bot being listed as online in the server. I can't get the bot to respond to any command given to it regardless of the channel in which the command was issued.

I am running the bot on Java 8 and have confirmed that it has a working connection to the MySQL database (the bot has created tables in the database).

If it helps, the bot is being run on my server box under Arch Linux. I've attached the log files containing the bot's output (I have however removed the channel ID's in question). There are a couple suspicious exceptions occuring at runtime which I am not sure if they are related to the problem (such as the Got permission_override exception).

Can you please try the latest version, link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/zwp10dbdfbcwqj0/AutoCleanBot.zip?dl=0 This was due to Discord adding categories.

Thankyou very much! That solved my problem.

I had a suspicion something like that might be the case as the channel ID reported in the logs was the "Text Channels" category on my server. I was nearly considering recompiling with a new version of JDA as I had thought my version to be the latest :/
