Add the crash log bot to your Discord

Someone posts a crash log in your support channel. Instead of reading a few thousand lines of stack trace, run /crashlog on it. The bot names the cause in plain English, lists the fixes and links the full guide. It runs the same rules as our free crash log analyzer.

Updated  ·  Forge, NeoForge, Fabric, Quilt  ·  Free

The bot is almost ready: the install buttons will appear here when it opens. Until then, the web analyzer reads the same logs.

It asks for one permission, applications.commands, which lets it add its commands and nothing else. No bot user joins your server and it can’t read your channels.

How to use it

  1. Attach the file. /crashlog file: and pick the crash report (the newest .txt in crash-reports) or logs/latest.log. Files up to 10 MB.
  2. Or give a link. /crashlog link: with an mclo.gs link. The bot reads the raw log through mclo.gs’s API.
  3. Or paste. /crashlog text: with the error lines, or run /crashlog on its own to get a paste box (up to 4,000 characters).
  4. On someone else’s message. Right-click the message (long-press on mobile), then Apps → Analyze crash log. It reads the message’s .log or .txt attachment, its mclo.gs link, or the error text in it.

Add private: True to /crashlog and only you see the answer. Otherwise it’s posted in the channel, so the person who asked sees it too.

What the answer looks like

The answer never quotes your log. When the rules don’t recognise a crash, the bot says where to look and points to the web analyzer for a deeper read.

What it recognizes

Each answer links the full guide for the crash it found:

Common questions

Is it free?

Yes. No account, no sign-up and no premium tier. It’s the same engine as the free web analyzer, which we built for our own modded servers.

Does it work if the server isn’t hosted with DSN?

Yes. It only needs the log, so it works for any Forge, NeoForge, Fabric or Quilt server, wherever it runs, and for crashes of the game on a PC.

Can I use it in a server that hasn’t added it?

Choose Add to my account and you can use it in any server you’re in. If a server has turned off external apps, the answer is shown only to you.

Can moderators limit who uses it?

Yes. In Server Settings → Integrations, pick the app to choose which roles and channels can use its commands.

It said “No known crash pattern found”. What now?

Find the first line that starts with Caused by: and look for a mod name in the lines under it. That mod, or one it depends on, is usually the problem. Our web analyzer can also take a deeper look.

It didn’t answer, or the file was too big.

The bot reads files up to 10 MB. A crash report is much smaller than latest.log, so upload that if there is one. If it still doesn’t answer, try again in a minute, or email the log to hello@dsnservers.com.

Who makes itDSN Servers is a one-person modded Minecraft hosting company in Bastrop, Texas. We wrote these rules from the crashes we kept seeing, and the guides go into more depth than a Discord answer can.

Modded hosting is relaunching.

We're moving DSN Servers to new hardware, and ordering is closed until then. At the prices we plan to relaunch with, Standard is 4 GB for $16 a month, Premium 8 GB for $30 and Heavy 12 GB for $42. Join the launch list and we'll email you when servers open.
