const existing = channel.messages.cache.get(data.id);

Hey, check out this stackoverflow post:
node.js - Cache message discord.js - Stack Overflow
I think it may have something to do with not loading anything so discord.js doesn’t have anything to cache.
could you check my code and tell me what’s wrong with it please ? cause 'm really lost
not sure what you mean by check your code what are your thoughts on what the error is? What specific help do you need?
I cannot help you make your entire project
it’s not an entire project sir , it’s a simple code with welcome message on my channel that’s what it require and sometimes it works fine and sometimes i got the error on the pictures up : here is my code link * : here
okay well it doesn’t even seem like you tried looking at my suggestion
so try my suggestion first
Did you try adding
client.on('ready', async () => {
await client.guilds.fetch('guild-id-here');
await guild.channels.cache.get('channel-id-here');
await channel.messages.fetch('message-id-here');
});
Don’t forget to replace guild-id-here with the guild you are trying to load etc.
I don’t understand why sometimes it works perfectly and then all my repls got the same error …
oops my bad
client.on('ready', async () => {
const guild = await client.guilds.fetch('guild-id-here');
const channel = await guild.channels.cache.get('channel-id-here');
const message = await channel.messages.fetch('message-id-here');
});

i still got the same error
hmm maybe you should put this inside guildMemberAdd like
await client.guilds.fetch(member.guild.id);
// ...
// const channel = member.guild.channels.cache. ...
also I noticed in your intents that you don’t have GUILDS and GUILD_MEMBERS so try those as well
