Chat categories are not compatible with the bot

[BladeofRagna]

This has only happened recently, but the bot is failing to respond. Lux notification isn't going off, and the bot can pull medal data. I'm sure this happened before, but I can't remember the solution to fix it.

Here's what happens when I attempt to use the bot. https://gyazo.com/78ef8715e323c58a295209ed0bfa0bd4

Confirm that you are using the latest version 1.4.4 and the bot token you are using is valid.

[BladeofRagna]

I can confirm I am using the latest version and the bot token is valid.

[xlash123]

Have you restarted the bot? If so, do a few actions and copy the entire log.

[BladeofRagna]

Yeah I've restarted countless times now. https://gyazo.com/22ef0bf7f04d004daf85d70b04418f4e

This is all I can see that seems to be wrong

[xlash123]

Link a pastebin of the entire log. I can't see why the issue is happening without the context.

[BladeofRagna]

Ehh not entirely sure how to do that.. lol From what I can see without everything freaking out, the bot is connecting to the server, yet it says it isn't connected... it's so weird.

[xlash123]

In the bot's console window: Ctrl+A, Ctrl+C Go to pastebin.com Ctrl+V and create new paste Link it here

[BladeofRagna]

No idea why, but Ctrl+A doesn't do anything and Ctrl+C kills the bot entirely.

[xlash123]

Oh right. Ctrl+C kills processes in cmd. Right-click on the title bar of command prompt, select Edit->Select All, then right click again, select Edit->Copy, then do the pastebin thing. I assume you are using Windows 10?

[BladeofRagna]

Using windows 7 actually. lol

Alright. Looking at this, alot of stuff gets cut off >.< So I don't know if anything here helps

[xlash123]

Make a copy of your config folder, rename it, and delete the original. Put in the bot token when the bot asks for it, and see if that fixes the issue. This is unlike any error I've seen and I think it may have to do with corrupted config.

[BladeofRagna]

Alright, did that and it didn't fix it. I even redownloaded the bot entirely as a fail-safe and that still didn't fix it. I'm gonna wait till tomorrow morning and see if the problem persists. And if it does, I'll let you know.

Try updating your Java version. Or you can use my host: https://www.reddit.com/r/KingdomHearts/comments/6q7ic8/khux_discord_bot_update_multiserver_support/?st=J7ZO5LFS&sh=f9bb2d06

[BladeofRagna]

Restarted my computer, uninstalled, and reinstalled Java, and yet despite all that the problem is still persisting. I'll just have to use your host for now.

The one thing I have noticed which has happened consistently, is the whole "JSONObject["Type"] not a string" part. Maybe that has to do with the new discord update that added the chat categories.

[xlash123]

Possibly. The issue could likely be fixed when the Discord API library I’m using gets updated.

[BladeofRagna]

Gotcha. And I did just try to use your host. That's not working either LOL! So I guess the issue is discords new update

[daltowon]

Odd. I haven't had any bot issues in the latest Discord update, and I'm using the hosted version.

[BladeofRagna]

Very odd. I'm gonna try and delete the channal cats. and see if that does anything.

[xlash123]

Yeah. The issue seems to be with something between the Discord API and your server. The bot functions properly except for your server. I’ll still keep looking for a solution to this.

[BladeofRagna]

OK! I can confirm now that the chat categories in the new discord update stops the bot from responding properly. Deleting them did the trick.

[xlash123]

Thanks. I will update the description and let you know when it gets fixed.

[BladeofRagna]

Cool!

[xlash123]

Library update did the trick. Worked fine on testing server when I created a category.

Resolved in 1.4.5.
