Interaction has already been acknowledged

Hi, I am making a Discord bot which utilizes interactions and message ids. Basically, whenever a message id is supplied into a command, it should currently reply back with the name of the channel which the command was run in. However, if the id is invalid, it should reply back with an error message. Unfortunately so, the bot does reply with the channel name everytime the command is ran (regardless of the validity of the message id), and if the message id was invalid it just throws an error into the console, which goes as follows: 
      throw new DiscordAPIError(data, "code" in data ? data.code : data.error, status, method, url, requestData);
            ^

DiscordAPIError[40060]: Interaction has already been acknowledged.
      throw new DiscordAPIError(data, "code" in data ? data.code : data.error, status, method, url, requestData);
            ^

DiscordAPIError[40060]: Interaction has already been acknowledged.
Command code below: 
client.on("interactionCreate", (interaction) => {
    if (!interaction.isCommand()) return;

    const { commandName, options } = interaction;
    if (commandName === "rolereactors") {
        const arg = options.getString("messageid");

        interaction.channel.messages.fetch(arg).catch(error => {
            interaction.reply("Message not found..\n Make sure you are in the same channel as the message")
            return;
        });
        
        interaction.reply(interaction.channel.toString()); // TODO: Get all reactors on the message
    }
});
client.on("interactionCreate", (interaction) => {
    if (!interaction.isCommand()) return;

    const { commandName, options } = interaction;
    if (commandName === "rolereactors") {
        const arg = options.getString("messageid");

        interaction.channel.messages.fetch(arg).catch(error => {
            interaction.reply("Message not found..\n Make sure you are in the same channel as the message")
            return;
        });
        
        interaction.reply(interaction.channel.toString()); // TODO: Get all reactors on the message
    }
});
Thank you in advance for any tips and/or suggestions for improvements to the code :cronchycat:

your return in your catch isnt doing anything it is just returning its value so your code will still progress

oh? how would i proceed with stopping the code at that point then?

use await or store the result and do an instanceof check later

Could also do a .then()

unfortunately when I do that it the discord api just throws back this and the bot crashes

:mdn: Using promises A Promise is an object representing the eventual completion or failure of an asynchronous operation. Since most people are consumers of already-created promises, this guide will explain consumption of returned promises before explaining how to create them.

@treble/luna not sure if im doing it quite right, but i followed the docs you sent and made this up 
client.on("interactionCreate", (interaction) => {
    if (!interaction.isCommand()) return;

    const { commandName, options } = interaction;
    if (commandName === "rolereactors") {
        const arg = options.getString("messageid");

        const message = interaction.channel.messages.fetch(arg);
        interaction.channel.messages.fetch(arg).then(() => {
            interaction.reply(interaction.channel.toString()); // TODO: Get all reactors on a message
        })
        .catch(error => {
            interaction.reply("Message not found..\n Make sure you are in the same channel as the message");
        });
    }
});
client.on("interactionCreate", (interaction) => {
    if (!interaction.isCommand()) return;

    const { commandName, options } = interaction;
    if (commandName === "rolereactors") {
        const arg = options.getString("messageid");

        const message = interaction.channel.messages.fetch(arg);
        interaction.channel.messages.fetch(arg).then(() => {
            interaction.reply(interaction.channel.toString()); // TODO: Get all reactors on a message
        })
        .catch(error => {
            interaction.reply("Message not found..\n Make sure you are in the same channel as the message");
        });
    }
});
now it throws DiscordAPIError[10008]: Unknown Message

Thank you very much! I was gonna use the message variable to complete the to-do - get all the users which reacted to that specific message i didnt even notice i put that in there twice, oops Also it was just a quick bot project, not something that I was wishing upon expanding/maintaining so I just skipped past the command handler thingy
