There seems to be an issues with finding the engine. I was thinking about adding and extention to it but since its Unix thats not a thing

[AttackingOrDefending]

If lichess-bot is in /Users/josebravosango/code/chess/lichess-bot/venv/lichess-bot/lichess-bot.py then the engine should be in /Users/josebravosango/code/chess/lichess-bot/venv/lichess-bot/engines/stockfish-android-armv8.

Some other notes:

• Why is lichess-bot installed inside venv? I would have assumed the path would be /Users/josebravosango/code/chess/lichess-bot/lichess-bot.py and not /Users/josebravosango/code/chess/lichess-bot/venv/lichess-bot/lichess-bot.py.
• Are you using android? We haven't tested lichess-bot on android, so we might have to look further into it.
• If you are getting an ssl error, that might be fixed with #969, since requests==2.32.2 can't run on a python version without ssl.

[realBravo]

it is there but it like this: /Users/josebravosango/code/chess/lichess-bot/venv/lichess-bot/engines/stockfish/stockfish-android-armv8

[realBravo]

in the config file should i have it like ./engines/stockfish/ and the name as stockfish-android-armv8

[AttackingOrDefending]

in the config file should i have it like ./engines/stockfish/ and the name as stockfish-android-armv8

Yes.

[realBravo]

Then why is it saying the file doesn't exist

[AttackingOrDefending]

Can you upload the logs from /Users/josebravosango/code/chess/lichess-bot/venv/lichess-bot/lichess_bot_auto_logs\recent.log, so we can look into it further?

Hello?

[MarkZH]

Are you sure you want to use the ARM version of stockfish (which is for android) and not the one for MacOS? The directories in your log postings look like you're running a Mac.

[realBravo]

i changed to the macos version how do i change my account to a bot

[MarkZH]

Make sure you have a token with the correct permissions:

https://github.com/lichess-bot-devs/lichess-bot/wiki/How-to-create-a-Lichess-OAuth-token

Convert the account into a bot account:

https://github.com/lichess-bot-devs/lichess-bot/wiki/Upgrade-to-a-BOT-account

[realBravo]

i got everything setup but no games are being played

[MarkZH]

You can set enable_matchmaking to true so that your bot will challenge other bots. Otherwise, your bot will wait for another player to challenge it.
