@Domas-Vileikis hmm... well other than nodebb being very confused with the formatting that looks okay.
can you run the bot as follows and post the results to me via chat? This command will be very verbose with debugging information and may contain sensitive information so please do not post the results publically.
DEBUG=* sockbot config.ymlthat command should provide me with additional information to figure out what's happening so we can sort you out.

@jiangcaiyang said in [sockbot] I wanted a robot, So I made one:
I want to know if people use it for malicious perpose?
yes, that's possible.
@jiangcaiyang said in [sockbot] I wanted a robot, So I made one:
For instance, some could run a script that frequently post ADs to our forum, thus cause our forum unable to run normally?
yes, but sockbot is incapable of that, it needs a manually registered account so would be far too quickly banned. there are other bots that run the spam.
@jiangcaiyang said in [sockbot] I wanted a robot, So I made one:
Is it possible to use it without administrative permission?
yes, but i hereby formally declare that anyone doing so with sockbot is a total poopy pants.
sockbot is meant for fun, not malice.

@Domas-Vileikis okay..... that's strange as heck.....
that's not where i expected that failure to occur.
however i do know what the cause is. and i can help you fix it.
the error occurs trying to load the configuration settings for the forum in order to get the CSRF token to log in. this is done by loading
/api/configon your forum.so, for example, if you were running a bot for this forum the value you would have put in core.forum would be
https://community.nodebb.organd so the configuration would be at https://community.nodebb.org/api/configcan you check to make sure that when you visit the URL in your configuration for
core.forumyou arrive at your forum's home page and that when loading/api/configrelative to that URL in the manner i described above your browser loads a JSON document.if one or both of these manual checks fail then the value you put in the configuration for
core.forumis incorrect and needs to be updated. if both checks pass when tried in a browser then it is most likely your forum has some sort of security in place that is preventing sockbot's user agent access to the REST API of the forum. you will need to update the firewall rules in this case to allow sockbot access, or if you are not the administrator of the webserver your forum runs on you will need to ask your server admin to update the firewall rules for you.hoping this gets you off and running with sockbot,

@TheWorms
Assuming you're absolutely 100% certain the login credentials are correct in the configuration file, the only two things that come to mind are:- Check the username. It is case sensitive for logging in via the bot. I keep meaning to fix that but........ yeah havent gotten around to it yet.
- Check the
forumkey. are you sure you've set it correctly. If you havent set it it will default tohttps://what.thedailywtf.comwhich is almost certainly not what you want.

huh. connection refused, that's a new one, and not something I can help with. You'll have to contact the one running the forum you're connecting to and find out from them why your bot is being refused connection.
Sorry, but that error really isn't something i can sort out on my end. it's on the server side.
