mautrix-discord cannot relay messages

[Elara6331]

Background information

• Dendrite version or git SHA: 0.13.6+e9deb52
• SQLite3 or Postgres?: Postgres
• Running in Docker?: Yes
• go version: N/A
• Client used (if applicable): Element

Description

• What is the problem: The mautrix-discord bridge fails to relay messages from discord to my matrix homeserver. Dendrite is returning HTTP 500.
• Who is affected: Users of the bridge on my homeserver
• How is this bug manifesting: Dendrite returns Internal Server Error. The following error message appears in mautrix-discord logs:

  ERR Failed to send part of message to Matrix error="failed to ensure joined: failed to POST /_matrix/client/v3/rooms/!Sk5rRcx0XrZ87BkT:genzedong.xyz/join: HTTP 500" action="discord message create" attachment_id= author_id=<redacted> channel_id=<redacted> channel_receiver= message_id=<redacted> message_type=0 part_index=0 room_id=!Sk5rRcx0XrZ87BkT:genzedong.xyz
  

  Dendrite doesn't log any errors, it only logs the following message:

  level=info msg="User requested to room join" room_id="!Sk5rRcx0XrZ87BkT:genzedong.xyz" servers="[]" user_id="@discord_<redacted>:genzedong.xyz"
  

• When did this first appear: After setting up the bridge

Steps to reproduce

• Set up mautrix-discord bridge
• Try sending message on the Discord side

I believe the internal server error is coming from here:

dendrite/clientapi/routing/joinroom.go

Lines 121 to 125 in 67d6876

	default:
	response = util.JSONResponse{
	Code: http.StatusInternalServerError,
	JSON: spec.InternalServerError{},
	}

Actually, looking closer, it looks like there is an error message from dendrite, it was just written to stderr instead of stdout:

level=error msg="Failed to join room" error="M_FORBIDDEN: You are not joined to any matching rooms." room_id="!Sk5rRcx0XrZ87BkT:genzedong.xyz" servers="[]" user_id="@discord_<redacted>:genzedong.xyz"

Just noticed this issue, stumbled onto this myself on a fresh e9deb52 instance. Works on Synapse so might be worth looking into since there seems to be different behavior between the two.

For me, direct messages seemingly bridged fine while guilds failed.

Are you sure this isn't an issue with the bridge?

[regalialong]

Not sure but my install of Synapse handles it fine, so I don't believe the bridge is outright broken.

Having same issue and I noticed that DMs work aswell but not guilds. Freshly made Dendrite instance.

It works if I manually invite the bridged users into the room.

Gonna echo this above seeing the same thing on dendrite, gonna try to set up synapse instead and see if that works better.
