I was hosting a Reserved VM deployment for my bot, and then I cancelled the deployment.
Somehow, my bot still works and you still can interact with it, even after a week. The link doesn’t work anymore, and the billings actually cancelled so I kind of just have a free deployment currently.
Is there any way to actually kill the bot? My deployment is already cancelled.
Thanks!
This is definitely a unique situation @LiquidPixel101 and I haven’t heard of that before, however, with tech anything is possible.
If you haven’t already, I would suggest putting in a support ticket with Replit so engineers can take a look to see if there is still a ghost process running out there.
I will put a support ticket in.
Thank you!
UPDATE: Support turned about to be just an AI
. At least the AI is going to connect me to “a teammate”, which hopefully is a real person.
Sadly it’s been a week and I have no reply :(
anyone can help me here?
Is it worth trying to deploy it again to the same domain name? This might trigger the Replit system to replace the old one. And then once the new one is running (add a small change so you can see which version it is), you could re-delete that deployment.
I tried, it didn’t work.
When I redeployed and interacted with my bot, it replied the exact message 2 times, indicating that there were 2 instances of my bot running.
When I did the version, my new deployment crashed because of a “too much requests” error (it’s site caused, the site I’m running my bot on), so the version is still the “old” version.
sorry, I’m out of ideas. Real shame Replit’s support have gone AWOL.
Sorry to hear you haven’t heard back @LiquidPixel101 - @pirroh posted today they are boosting support. In my experience, they will get back to you. It sounds like based on Michele’s post on X that they are working on reducing time to resolution: https://x.com/pirroh/status/1952444125636436087
That is good news @pirroh. I believe as the world goes AI-first, the thing that will differentiate the winners is human connection. When things break, or we need assistance with our AI tools (not just dev, but across every sector of life), we will all want real people at the end of the line to guide us.
