Hello,
I try connecting the BigBlueBot to the Chat.

This is the error message that i get

This is the code I tried

const bigbluebot = require('bigbluebot');

const options = {
    host: '',
    secret: '',
    version: '2.3',
    room: 'random-5840966',
    password:{
        moderator:'',
        attendee: ''
    }
};

const action = async page => {
    await bigbluebot.chat.send(page);
};


 bigbluebot.run(action, options);

Thanks in advance

Regards
Mark

Hi @MKorost

I couldn't reproduce this issue. Could you give some extra details on the version of the bot you are using along with some more details on your bigbluebutton instance? Something like version, if there is any sort of custom configuration...

[mkorostovskiy]

@pedrobmarin,

I'm using the latest version for the bot, v2.1.0.
The BBB-Server's currently running on version 2.4-alpha-2.
As far as I know there are no custom configurations made.

[pedrobmarin]

Hmmm, thanks for the feedback @MKorost . I did not test it on 2.4. I'll take a closer look.

[pedrobmarin]

Yeah, I got it.

v2.4 removed some of the aria-labels we used to build the selectors for the bots... I'll have to dig deeper on that.

So, as the result, the bot joins, closes the audio modal and can't recognize that the user-list is already opened because it does not find that aria-label. So, following it's regular procedure, it clicks the user-list toggle and closes it.

[mkorostovskiy]

Thank you for the fast reply,

is there anything I can do right now to fix this myself or is there any workaround ?

[pedrobmarin]

You can try a quick fix changing

bigbluebot/config/label/main.js

Line 3 in a53b0dc

name: 'app.userList.label',

the app.userList.label label with app.chat.titlePublic.

Thank you very much,

the bot is now joining and sending messages into the chat.
