Common Errors

This is a list of common errors you might come across when using Dashactyl.

Arch Error:

This error sometimes appears when you try and install the NPM packages. A workaround is to do npm i -f instead.

MongoClient error

If you are getting the error: MongoClient must be connected, a simple workaround is by using the non srv connection uri which you can get by choosing an older driver version like 2.2.12 on MongoDB Atlas, or just converting it yourself.

Thank you to Acktar#6724 on discord for the above 2 answers.

Invalid oauth2 redirect_uri

The reason you are getting invalid oauth2 redirect_uri is because you haven't set the application_url key in the settings collection in the database, or it is not set correctly. It MUST be set like the following below. Make sure there is not a trailing / at the end!
