🐛
Code Error
There's a syntax error in your bot code.
What happened
Your bot's Python code has a syntax error — something like a missing colon, wrong indentation, or an unclosed bracket. Python couldn't run the code, so the bot failed to start.
How to fix it
1
Go to your bot in the BotNinja Dashboard
Open the BotNinja Dashboard and select the bot that had the error.
2
Ask BotNinja AI to fix it
The fastest way to fix this is to ask the AI. Send a message like:
- "My bot won't start because of a code error. Can you fix it?"
- "I got an error when starting my bot. Can you help?"
- "My bot won't start because of a code error. Can you fix it?"
- "I got an error when starting my bot. Can you help?"
