Bot will not .editReply() it's message.

Greetings, I am running discord.js v14.14.1 and npm v 9.8.1. I have two bots with the exact same code, however one is for the main server in which it's deployed and the second bot is on my test server so I can test out new features to add. My test bot is able to edit the message just fine while the actual bot refuses to edit the messages from the deferedReply and crashes after 15 minutes. I see no signs of Rate Limiting by discord so I'm shocked. Attached is proof that the embed data is coming through the console side. Code:

   if (targetUser) {
        interaction.deferReply(); // Deferring the reply here
        let userNickname = targetUser.nickname;
        embedUserNickname = userNickname.replace(/\[[^\]]*\]\s*/, "");
        userNickname = userNickname.replace(/\[[^\]]*\]\s*/, "").trim().toLowerCase();
        const lowercaseUserNickname = userNickname.toLowerCase();

   if (targetUser) {
        interaction.deferReply(); // Deferring the reply here
        let userNickname = targetUser.nickname;
        embedUserNickname = userNickname.replace(/\[[^\]]*\]\s*/, "");
        userNickname = userNickname.replace(/\[[^\]]*\]\s*/, "").trim().toLowerCase();
        const lowercaseUserNickname = userNickname.toLowerCase();

//Just grabbed the code where deferReply is called

const embed = new EmbedBuilder()
            .setColor("White")
            .setTitle(`**${embedUserNickname}**`)
            .setThumbnail(img)
            .addFields(
          { name: "**Rank:**", value: role_name },
          { name: "**Awards:**", value: awardsList},
          { name: "**Tabs:**", value: tabsList},
          { name: "**Ribbons:**", value: ribbonList}
        )
            .setFooter({
          text: `${interaction.client.user.tag} is managed by Zer0_Access`,
          iconURL: `${interaction.client.user.avatarURL()}`,
        });
        console.log(embed);
    
      interaction.followUp({ embeds: [embed] , ephemeral: false});

const embed = new EmbedBuilder()
            .setColor("White")
            .setTitle(`**${embedUserNickname}**`)
            .setThumbnail(img)
            .addFields(
          { name: "**Rank:**", value: role_name },
          { name: "**Awards:**", value: awardsList},
          { name: "**Tabs:**", value: tabsList},
          { name: "**Ribbons:**", value: ribbonList}
        )
            .setFooter({
          text: `${interaction.client.user.tag} is managed by Zer0_Access`,
          iconURL: `${interaction.client.user.avatarURL()}`,
        });
        console.log(embed);
    
      interaction.followUp({ embeds: [embed] , ephemeral: false});

It just gets stuck on the bot is thinking message. Any help would be appreciated. The code works on the test bot but not the actual bot. Note: it doesn't error until after 15 minutes in which it says Invalid Webhook Token.

I will add that the bot has admin perms on both servers.

saoy•12mo ago

Does one of your bots not have the intents enabled? Or message intents through the discord developer portal?

Zer0OP•12mo ago

Both bots have intents enabled, shockingly enough this just happened overnight. Originally I made an interaction.reply then .editReply() and it was working for 2 weeks then all of the sudden poof.

saoy•12mo ago

Hmm, weird. I don't see in your code where it says .editReply though? Am I just blind?

Zer0OP•12mo ago

I changed it from .editReply to deferReply

saoy•12mo ago

Oh I see now

Zer0OP•12mo ago

To see if that would fix it but sadly not.

saoy•12mo ago

Could you try going back to .editReply?

Zer0OP•12mo ago

This code that I have currently works on the test bot I have and it's the exact same code I have deployed on the main bot but the main bot won't edit it. Even in my test server the main bot won't edit it. But the test bot works and it's the same exact code.

saoy•12mo ago

huh, weird... Are all the files the same? index.js, handlers, etc?

Zer0OP•12mo ago

Yeah I'm stumped, this problem happened overnight It was working fine before then it just broke on me

saoy•12mo ago

I've seen people get the Invaild Webhook Token error, let me see if I can see where they fixed it at.

Zer0OP•12mo ago

It's because the deferred reply expires after 15 minutes So the bot isn't following up with the reply so after 15 minutes the token expires

saoy•12mo ago

try using deferUpdate are you attempting to use an interaction's token >15 minutes after the initial response?

Zer0OP•12mo ago

Nope

saoy•12mo ago

weird, try asking in #djs-help-v14 It's more open and easier to get help

Zer0OP•12mo ago

Oddly enough is says deferUpdate isn't a function?

saoy•12mo ago

hmm

Zer0OP•12mo ago

Maybe because deferUpdate is only used for components? or no?

saoy•12mo ago

probably

treble/luna•12mo ago

deferReply returns a promise, resolve it

Zer0OP•12mo ago

Resolved and still won't edit the message

Zer0OP•12mo ago

treble/luna•12mo ago

show full code

Zer0OP•12mo ago

It's like 650 lines, I can try to snip it where the interaction gets called One second

d.js docs•12mo ago

To share long code snippets, use a service like gist, sourcebin, starbin, or similar instead of posting them as large code blocks or files.

treble/luna•12mo ago

and around which lines

Zer0OP•12mo ago

Line 96 is where deferReply is Line 678 is where the reply is sent No console errors occur, and the code works on my test bot but not my main bot. (Same exact code)

d.js docs•12mo ago

If you aren't getting any errors, try to place console.log checkpoints throughout your code to find out where execution stops. - Once you do, log relevant values and if-conditions - More sophisticated debugging methods are breakpoints and runtime inspections: learn more

treble/luna•12mo ago

do that and see where it stops

Zer0OP•12mo ago

It executes the full code, line 676 is the embed in which it gets printed to the console successfully

treble/luna•12mo ago

await the edit and make sure your code is saved

Zer0OP•12mo ago

Code is saved, this is output:

treble/luna•12mo ago

you arent silently ignoring errors somewhere i hope

Zer0OP•12mo ago

Negative, the odd thing is this code literally works on my test bot Just not the main bot

treble/luna•12mo ago

replace the embed with text and try then

Zer0OP•12mo ago

Alrighty

Zer0OP•12mo ago

Still same thing

Zer0OP•12mo ago

I'll go back to using interaction.reply then editReply And see if anything changes there

Zer0OP•12mo ago

@wolvinny 🌈 Won't even edit if I use text

Zer0OP•12mo ago

I just have the console.log(embed) still in to see if it will go through

const pendingResults = new EmbedBuilder()
        .setColor("Red")
        .setTitle(`**Status:**`)
        .setThumbnail(img)
        .setDescription("Grabing user data...")
        .setFooter({
            text: `${interaction.client.user.tag} is managed by Zer0_Access`,
            iconURL: `${interaction.client.user.avatarURL()}`,
          }); 

        interaction.reply({embeds: [pendingResults], ephemeral: false});

const pendingResults = new EmbedBuilder()
        .setColor("Red")
        .setTitle(`**Status:**`)
        .setThumbnail(img)
        .setDescription("Grabing user data...")
        .setFooter({
            text: `${interaction.client.user.tag} is managed by Zer0_Access`,
            iconURL: `${interaction.client.user.avatarURL()}`,
          }); 

        interaction.reply({embeds: [pendingResults], ephemeral: false});

interaction.editReply({ content: "Checking if this actually can edit." , ephemeral: false});

interaction.editReply({ content: "Checking if this actually can edit." , ephemeral: false});

treble/luna•12mo ago

did you await the initial reply and the editreply

Zer0OP•12mo ago

Yep The odd thing is I literally didn't change any code and the bot stopped editing responses over night

Bot has admin Also as a heads up @gwapes it can pull all the data successfully from everywhere else there isn't anywhere that the code is stopping This code worked about 2 days ago and I haven't changed it in the slighest the bot just stopped editting over night

Zer0OP•12mo ago

Keep in mind some didn't deploy simply because they didn't have certain ribbons / badges in this case and what the bot is used for

Is nothing supposed to pop up?

Zer0OP•12mo ago

I'm kinda at a loss of words the same exact code works on my test bot

Unknown User•12mo ago

Zer0OP•12mo ago

Test bot I boot up locally, main bot is stored on a 24/7 server and yes the code is saved I can 100% try hosting the bot locally to confirm your theory @gwapes Worked when hosted locally
