Discord Bot problems

Ok so i have started using discord and made this bot a while ago, and it worked fine but now when i try to run it it gives me an error with the first line being about client.run() im very confused.

These are the errors ive been getting. Please run the bot yourself to see the full list.

I have a chat filter built in so if you are not comfortable with seeing explicit words please dont look.

I dont think its the wrong token because i have gone in and regenerated the token and re-pasted it and it still give me the same error.

can you like copy and paste the entire contents

OHHH I GOT IT NOW!!

.env is not python!! It is CASE SENSITIVE and cannot have quotation marks because it is a shell file.


TOKEN=abcdeg

correct


TOKEN = abcdeg

incorrect

I think my answer seems to work check it out below or above idk. But I think it has to do with the mirror package of discord.py. Delete or remove the discord package from your packages on the side and install discord.py. Install it using pip if it doesn't install from the sidebar thing (pip install discord.py). Also import discord.py like import discord

i have the env working but am still getting the same errors

Alright, for future people, https://docs.repl.it/repls/secret-keys

basically, create a .env file (exactly that, cannot be token.env, anything.env only .env):


KEY=VALUE
# No spaces

Hi,
It's wrong token!

Hope this helps.

Delete the token.env and create a new file just named .env with the token in it like you did before.

If its not .env I don't know if os.getenv will pick it up, but also repl will show your token to everyone if its not just .env.

Also try deleting the package discord (mirror) and downloading the package discord.py instead. If it doesn't install press ctrl+shift+s to open a shell and install it using pip. pip install discord.py

I will try to add that functionality once the bot is up and running!

Anyways, the thing is, we will never be able to see your error because repl.it will not show the .env file for us, thus breaking the bot (no .env file, no token)
