Unable to communicate with bot

[alistair23]

On the latest 0.5.1 release of Dendrite or the latest master branch commit my WhatsApp bridge is unresponsive.

I am able to add the bot to a room, where I get the "Hello, I'm a WhatsApp bridge bot" message, but then any commands that I send don't generate a response. Also the WhatsApp messages aren't being sycned.

This is on a setup that previously worked, but not just seems to be unresponsive.

This is the log that I see:

Did you try to use an encrypted room without enabling encryption in the bridge?

[alistair23]

Encryption is disabled in the bridge, but the room is not encrypted

I saw this log as well, if that's helpful:

level=info msg="Producing to topic 'DendriteOutputRoomEvent'" func="WriteOutputEvents\n\t" file=" [input.go:130]" adds_state=1 content_value=join event_id="$fZzWGWR7_QGoAQlKHmUCOmU56d15kOpmeNqgiCSKaiE" event_type=m.room.member removes_state=1 room_id="!zg6EvnSOYLOsLUfD:alistair23.me" send_as_server=*** sender="@whatsappbot2:***" state_key="@whatsappbot2:***" type=new_room_event

Just want to report that mautrix-whatsapp works well with my dendrite on current master, I had initially the problem that the WhatsAppBot would not join the room, but after a few restarts of both dendrite and the bridge, things are working fine now on this installation.
