Discord bot troubleshooting

A practical checklist for bots that crash, stay offline, or fail after an upload.

Help Center / Discord Bot Hosting

Bot shows offline

  1. 1Open the server console and confirm the server is running.
  2. 2Read the most recent application error.
  3. 3Confirm the bot token is current and belongs to the right application.
  4. 4Confirm the main file and startup setting match the uploaded files.
  5. 5Confirm required packages are installed or declared in the dependency file used by your selected runtime.
  6. 6Restart the server after correcting the issue.

Server is running but commands do not work

  • Check that the bot invited to the Discord server is the same application whose token you are using.
  • Check required Discord intents and application settings in the Discord Developer Portal.
  • Check command registration or sync logic in your bot code.
  • Check permissions for the bot role and the channel where you are testing.

Resource errors

If the console clearly shows an out-of-memory condition, CPU pressure, or disk exhaustion, use the X Systems dashboard to add the relevant resource upgrade. Do not buy more resources for a syntax error, bad token, or missing file; resources will not fix those problems.

Send useful support details

When contacting support, include your server name, selected runtime, what you changed, and the exact non-secret error text. Remove tokens, API keys, passwords, cookies, and private database URLs.
