Question:
So I have recently restarted my discord.py bot, and I am trying to fix all of the errors that keep popping up. One of them was that youtube_dl was simply not downloading the Youtube video to be played in the vc. I switched to yt-dlp, which I was told is a good alternative for yt-dl. That had its own problems. It requires opus to play the music, which I tried using
discord.opus.load_opus("opus")
It gave an error: Command raised an exception: OSError: opus: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I looked it up, it meant that I had to download opus in replit. I found a replit topic (https://replit.com/talk/learn/OPUS-SUPPORT-FOR-DISCORD-MUSIC-BOTS/37015?order=new) which mentioned to use PHP. I typed PHP in the shell, which prompted me to select a version of PHP to run:
~/Discord-Bot-Again$ php
php: command not installed. Multiple versions of this command were found in Nix.
Select one to run (or press Ctrl-C to cancel):
>
php74.out
apacheHttpdPackages.php.out
Selecting either one of those results in the same output:
Adding apacheHttpdPackages.php to replit.nix
success

error: php74 has been dropped due to the lack of maintanence from upstream for future releases
(use '--show-trace' to show detailed location information)
(Sorry about the wall of text, replit doesn’t allow me to share more than one media file)
I pressed Ctrl-C in the middle because it wouldn’t go past the line above, and pressing that gave the rest of the output.
Now, this error keeps repeatedly printing in the console, and does not stop no matter what I do.
(See the scroll bar on the bottom right)
I cannot start my bot because of this.
I have typed exit 1 in the shell, restarted the website, pressed Ctrl-C everywhere, cleared the console.
TL;DR:
- How do you download opus in replit?
- PHP install failed, and error output keeps printing repeatedly in the console, causing me to not be able to run my discord bot.
- Console keeps showing loading Nix environment, but doesn’t do anything or stop showing this line.
