That message usually means Telegram is reaching OpenClaw, but the Gateway/agent crashed or rejected the request after receiving it.

First, please run:

openclaw --version
openclaw status --all
openclaw channels status --probe
openclaw logs --follow

Don’t paste your bot token. status --all should redact secrets.

For Telegram, the config should look like this:

#

{
  channels: {
    telegram: {
      enabled: true,
      botToken: "123:abc",
      dmPolicy: "pairing"
    }
  }
}

Then restart the gateway and approve the first DM if pairing is enabled:

openclaw gateway restart

#

openclaw pairing list telegram
openclaw pairing approve telegram <CODE>

If you’re using env instead: TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN only applies to the default Telegram account, and config values win over env.

06:44:11+00:00 error gateway connect failed: GatewayClientRequestError: scope upgrade pending approval (requestId: 04db6913-57b8-43c0-851f-07e87c809038)
OpenClaw 2026.4.24 (cbcfdf6)

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 6:44 AM

#

That log is the key: this is not a Telegram token problem yet. Your Gateway client/device is already paired, but it’s asking for a scope upgrade and OpenClaw is waiting for approval.

Run:

openclaw devices list

Review the pending request, then approve the exact request id:

openclaw devices approve 04db6913-57b8-43c0-851f-07e87c809038

If it says the request was superseded/expired, run openclaw devices list again and approve the newest current requestId.

After that, try Telegram again. If Telegram DM pairing appears next, then do:

#

openclaw pairing list telegram
openclaw pairing approve telegram <CODE>

Docs: https://docs.openclaw.ai/cli/devices and https://docs.openclaw.ai/channels/telegram

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 6:48 AM

this is the result

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 6:49 AM

Nice, that approval worked ✅

Now reconnect/restart so the client uses the upgraded scope:

openclaw gateway restart
openclaw status
openclaw channels status --probe

Then try messaging the Telegram bot again, ideally with /new.

If Telegram now shows a pairing request, approve it separately:

openclaw pairing list telegram

#

openclaw pairing approve telegram <CODE>

If it still says scope upgrade pending approval with the same requestId after restart, run:

openclaw devices list
openclaw doctor

and paste the output without tokens/secrets. Docs: https://docs.openclaw.ai/channels/telegram

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 6:53 AM

#

already chat telegram /new but no feedback messages,

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 6:53 AM

#

Okay — scope approval is fixed, so now we need to see whether Telegram messages are reaching the Gateway at all.

Please run this, then send /new to the Telegram bot while logs are open:

openclaw gateway restart
openclaw channels status --probe
openclaw pairing list telegram
openclaw logs --follow

What to look for:

No new log line when you send /new → Telegram transport isn’t connected. Usually wrong token/config not loaded, gateway not restarted, or another process is using the same bot token.
pairing request / pending code → approve it:

#

  openclaw pairing approve telegram <CODE>

blocked / allowlist → your Telegram user ID is not allowed; set channels.telegram.allowFrom or use pairing.
model/provider error → Telegram is connected, but the assistant run is failing.

Paste the channels status --probe result + the log lines after sending /new — but remove any bot token/secrets. Docs: https://docs.openclaw.ai/channels/telegram

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 6:58 AM

i do channels status
Gateway reachable.Telegram default: enabled, configured, running, disconnected, mode:polling, bot:@Ryan_11_bot, token:config, works

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 7:00 AM

#

works means the bot token is valid (@Ryan_11_bot is reachable).
But disconnected means OpenClaw’s Telegram polling connection is not actually healthy yet, so /new may not reach OpenClaw.

Run this and watch the log while sending /new again in Telegram:

openclaw logs --follow

Look for lines containing telegram, especially:

getUpdates conflict / 409 → another OpenClaw/script is using the same bot token. Stop the duplicate poller or rotate the bot token.

pairing request → run:

openclaw pairing list telegram
openclaw pairing approve telegram <CODE>

#

blocked / allowlist → Telegram user ID isn’t allowed.
polling stall / timeout → network issue reaching Telegram API.

Also wait ~60 seconds and rerun:

openclaw channels status --probe

If it still says running, disconnected, works, paste the Telegram-related log lines after restart/send /new — no token/secrets.

Bind: loopback

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 7:02 AM

#

Now the problem changed: the Gateway is down/unreachable, so Telegram can’t reply yet.

Run these:

openclaw gateway status
openclaw gateway start
openclaw gateway status
openclaw status --all

If gateway start fails, get the logs:

openclaw logs --follow

#

If logs can’t connect either:

tail -f "$(ls -t /tmp/openclaw/openclaw-*.log | head -1)"

One important thing: your config path is /root/.openclaw/openclaw.json. If you accidentally used sudo, you may be running OpenClaw as root. Don’t mix root and normal-user installs. Either always run as root, or preferably run without sudo from your normal user.

Paste the output of openclaw gateway status + the first error from logs, no tokens/secrets. Docs: https://docs.openclaw.ai/gateway/troubleshooting

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 7:12 AM

#

That means the Gateway process is either stuck starting or hung. Telegram won’t work until this is healthy.

Please run these in order:

openclaw gateway status --deep
openclaw gateway restart
openclaw gateway status --deep

Then check the raw file logs, because normal health checks are timing out:

tail -n 120 "$(ls -t /tmp/openclaw/openclaw-*.log | head -1)"

Also check if something is listening on the gateway port:

#

lsof -nP -iTCP:18789 -sTCP:LISTEN

Important: it’s using /root/.openclaw/openclaw.json, so make sure you’re consistently running as root. If you configured as root but start OpenClaw as a normal user, it’ll use a different config.

Paste:

openclaw gateway status --deep
the last ~120 log lines
lsof result

No tokens/secrets.

Good — Gateway is healthy now ✅
bind=loopback is fine for Telegram polling, and root looks consistent.

Now check Telegram specifically:

openclaw channels status --probe
openclaw pairing list telegram
openclaw logs --follow

While logs --follow is running, send /new to @Ryan_11_bot.

Then:

If pairing list telegram shows a code, approve it:

#

  openclaw pairing approve telegram <CODE>

If logs show getUpdates conflict / 409, another process is using the same bot token — stop it or rotate the token.
If logs show blocked / allowlist, add your numeric Telegram user ID to channels.telegram.allowFrom.
If no Telegram log appears at all, paste openclaw channels status --probe again.

so weird, after i run /new in telegram, the gateway get timeout
Gateway not reachable. Is it running and accessible?
Gateway target: ws://127.0.0.1:18789
Source: local loopback
Config: /root/.openclaw/openclaw.json
Bind: loopback

always like that

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 7:21 AM

#

Yeah, that’s weird — but it narrows it down: Telegram receives /new, then OpenClaw’s Gateway hangs/crashes while processing that inbound message. Token/config is probably no longer the main issue.

Please capture the exact crash/hang log:

tail -f /tmp/openclaw/openclaw-2026-04-27.log

Then send /new in Telegram and paste the new log lines.

If the log doesn’t show enough, run Gateway in foreground debug mode:

openclaw gateway stop
OPENCLAW_LOG_LEVEL=debug openclaw gateway --port 18789 --verbose --ws-log compact

#

Then send /new again and copy the last error/stack trace. To restore service after testing:

openclaw gateway start

Also run once:

openclaw doctor

Don’t paste bot tokens/secrets. If the logs show an internal crash on 2026.4.24, that may need a GitHub issue with the stack trace: https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues

should i just reset the config, im just get onboarding i think its fine? take to long to troubleshoot this

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 7:23 AM

#

Yes — if this is a fresh onboarding, I’d reset instead of spending more time debugging. Do it as a backup/move, not delete:

openclaw gateway stop

ts=$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S)
mv ~/.openclaw ~/.openclaw.bak-$ts

openclaw onboard --install-daemon
openclaw gateway start
openclaw status

Important: your current setup is running as root, so run those commands from the same root shell/user. Don’t mix root + normal user configs.

After onboarding, add Telegram again, restart, then check:

#

openclaw gateway restart
openclaw channels status --probe

If it works, great. If the same /new → Gateway timeout happens on a fresh config, that’s likely a 2026.4.24 bug and worth filing with the log: https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues

Docs: https://docs.openclaw.ai/cli/onboard

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 7:23 AM

#

i want to reset all and delete exisint config

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 7:23 AM

#

Yes. Since you’re fresh, do a clean reset like this as the same user/root shell you used before:

openclaw gateway stop
openclaw gateway uninstall

ts=$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S)
mv ~/.openclaw ~/.openclaw.deleted-$ts

openclaw onboard --install-daemon
openclaw gateway start
openclaw status

That removes the active config/state by moving it aside. Safer than permanent delete because you can recover tokens/logs if needed.

After onboarding, re-add Telegram token, then:

#

openclaw gateway restart
openclaw channels status --probe

If everything works, you can later delete the backup folder manually.

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 7:26 AM

#

apakah itu sama saja dengan ini? openclaw reset --scope full --yes --non-interactive

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 7:26 AM

#

Iya, itu command yang tepat — hampir sama, dan lebih rapi daripada manual mv ~/.openclaw.

Pakai:

openclaw gateway stop
openclaw reset --scope full --yes --non-interactive
openclaw onboard --install-daemon

--scope full akan reset config/state termasuk workspace, tapi tetap menyisakan CLI OpenClaw terinstall.

Kalau mau aman dulu:

openclaw backup create

#

lalu reset. Docs: https://docs.openclaw.ai/cli/reset

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 7:36 AM

#

ketika udah selesai setup ada muncul bagian shell completion

tapi ini hasilnya Failed to generate completion cache. Run openclaw completion --install later.

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 7:36 AM

#

Itu tidak fatal — cuma autocomplete shell gagal dibuat. OpenClaw/Gateway tetap bisa jalan.

Bisa skip dulu, atau jalankan nanti:

openclaw completion --install

Kalau masih gagal, coba hanya generate cache:

openclaw completion --write-state

Setelah itu lanjut cek setup utama:

#

openclaw status
openclaw gateway status
openclaw channels status --probe

Kalau status oke, lanjut test Telegram lagi. Docs: https://docs.openclaw.ai/cli/completion

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 7:40 AM

#

Ini bukan Telegram token lagi — Telegram OK itu cuma config valid. Masalahnya Gateway service “running” tapi port 18789 belum listen / koneksi ditolak, jadi Gateway crash/stuck saat start.

Jangan reset lagi dulu. Ambil log-nya:

openclaw gateway restart
sleep 10
openclaw gateway status --deep
tail -n 180 /tmp/openclaw/openclaw-2026-04-27.log
journalctl --user -u openclaw-gateway -n 120 --no-pager

Kalau masih unclear, test foreground:

openclaw gateway stop

#

OPENCLAW_LOG_LEVEL=debug openclaw gateway --port 18789 --verbose --ws-log compact

Paste error/stack trace terakhirnya, tanpa token.

Kalau ini fresh reset + masih terjadi di 2026.4.24, kemungkinan bug/regression startup. Jangan buang waktu reset berulang; kita butuh log crash-nya, lalu kalau memang internal bug → file GitHub issue: https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues

That bonjour line is probably not the main error — Bonjour is just LAN discovery. The real issue is: Gateway starts, registers /pair, then never reaches “listening on 127.0.0.1:18789”.

Try this quick isolation:

openclaw gateway stop

OPENCLAW_DISABLE_BONJOUR=1 \
OPENCLAW_TELEGRAM_DISABLE_AUTO_SELECT_FAMILY=1 \
OPENCLAW_LOG_LEVEL=debug \
openclaw gateway --port 18789 --verbose --ws-log compact

If that works, persist the likely fixes:

#

openclaw plugins disable bonjour
openclaw config set --batch-json '[{"path":"channels.telegram.network.autoSelectFamily","value":false}]'
openclaw gateway restart

If it still hangs after /pair, test whether Telegram is blocking startup:

openclaw config set --batch-json '[{"path":"channels.telegram.enabled","value":false}]'
openclaw gateway restart
openclaw gateway status --deep

If Gateway works with Telegram disabled → Telegram startup/network is the blocker.
If Gateway still fails even with Telegram disabled → likely 2026.4.24 startup bug; file issue with logs: https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues

#

Don’t paste the bot token.

#

Yes — now we found the real blocker. This is Bonjour/mDNS crashing the Gateway, not Telegram:

Unhandled promise rejection: CIAO PROBING CANCELLED

Disable Bonjour:

openclaw gateway stop
openclaw plugins disable bonjour
openclaw gateway start
sleep 10
openclaw gateway status --deep

If plugins disable bonjour fails, use config directly:

#

openclaw config set --batch-json '[{"path":"plugins.entries.bonjour.enabled","value":false}]'
openclaw gateway restart

Then check Telegram again:

openclaw channels status --probe

If Gateway stays reachable after this, send /new in Telegram again. The stability bundle path is useful if you file an issue later, but first disable Bonjour — this should unblock you.

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 7:48 AM

apa kegunaan plugin bonjour?

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 7:48 AM

#

Bonjour plugin itu untuk LAN auto-discovery: bikin device/app di jaringan lokal bisa menemukan Gateway OpenClaw otomatis via mDNS/Bonjour.

Contoh kegunaannya:

iOS/Android/macOS node/app bisa auto-detect Gateway
perangkat di LAN bisa menemukan openclaw.local / service _openclaw-gw._tcp
mempermudah pairing node tanpa input host manual

Untuk setup kamu sekarang:

Telegram tidak butuh Bonjour
Gateway loopback/local juga tidak wajib Bonjour
Kalau Bonjour bikin crash CIAO PROBING CANCELLED, aman untuk disable:

openclaw plugins disable bonjour
openclaw gateway restart

#

Nanti kalau butuh auto-discovery LAN, bisa enable lagi.

Port 18789 already in use di sini bukan masalah port konflik — itu Gateway sendiri (pid 77528). Masalahnya: prosesnya listen tapi tidak merespons WS probe → kemungkinan hung.

Jangan ganti port dulu. Coba hard restart bersih:

openclaw gateway stop

Kalau masih ada pid 77528, stop proses itu:

openclaw gateway restart

Kalau setelah itu masih timeout, paste log terbaru:

Masih sama: proses Gateway hidup dan listen, tapi event loop/RPC-nya tidak merespons. Jadi bukan port conflict.

Sekarang isolate penyebabnya. Jalankan ini persis:

openclaw gateway stop
sleep 5

openclaw plugins disable bonjour
openclaw config set --batch-json '[{"path":"channels.telegram.enabled","value":false}]'

openclaw gateway start
sleep 20
openclaw gateway status --deep

Kalau setelah Telegram disabled Gateway jadi Connectivity probe: ok, berarti penyebabnya channel Telegram/network polling. Nanti enable lagi dengan:

#

openclaw config set --batch-json '[{"path":"channels.telegram.enabled","value":true},{"path":"channels.telegram.network.autoSelectFamily","value":false}]'
openclaw gateway restart

Kalau masih timeout walau Bonjour + Telegram disabled, paste log terbaru:

tail -n 200 /tmp/openclaw/openclaw-2026-04-27.log

Kita sudah melewati tahap “token salah”; ini sekarang murni Gateway hang saat startup/sidecar.

Status itu masih cuma bilang Gateway hang. Kita perlu cek apakah config disable benar-benar sudah masuk.

Jalankan ini:

openclaw config get plugins.entries.bonjour.enabled
openclaw config get channels.telegram.enabled

Expected:

plugins.entries.bonjour.enabled = false
channels.telegram.enabled = false untuk test isolasi

Lalu test Gateway tanpa channels dulu:

#

openclaw gateway stop
sleep 5
lsof -nP -iTCP:18789 -sTCP:LISTEN

OPENCLAW_DISABLE_BONJOUR=1 \
OPENCLAW_SKIP_CHANNELS=1 \
OPENCLAW_LOG_LEVEL=debug \
openclaw gateway --port 18789 --verbose --ws-log compact

Kalau foreground ini berhasil sampai gateway ready dan tidak timeout, berarti penyebabnya channel/sidecar startup.

Kalau masih hang bahkan dengan OPENCLAW_SKIP_CHANNELS=1, itu bukan Telegram lagi — kemungkinan bug startup/core di 2026.4.24. Paste log terakhir dari foreground itu.

Ada 2 hal di sini:

Jangan jalankan OpenClaw pakai sh, bash, atau source
Error ini:

/usr/bin/openclaw: import: command not found

berarti file OpenClaw sedang dibaca sebagai shell script. Jalankan langsung:

openclaw gateway stop

bukan:

sh /usr/bin/openclaw
bash /usr/bin/openclaw
source /usr/bin/openclaw

#

Gateway lama masih hidup/hung di pid 80126. Stop paksa dulu:

openclaw gateway stop
sleep 5
kill 80126
sleep 3
lsof -nP -iTCP:18789 -sTCP:LISTEN

Kalau lsof sudah kosong, start test foreground:

OPENCLAW_DISABLE_BONJOUR=1 \
OPENCLAW_SKIP_CHANNELS=1 \
OPENCLAW_LOG_LEVEL=debug \

#

openclaw gateway --port 18789 --verbose --ws-log compact

Kalau masih muncul “gateway already running”, berarti service auto-start lagi. Stop pakai:

systemctl --user stop openclaw-gateway.service
kill 80126

Lalu ulangi test foreground.

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 8:03 AM

#

apa tes foreground?

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 8:03 AM

#

“Tes foreground” = menjalankan Gateway langsung di terminal, bukan lewat service/systemd di background.

Tujuannya: kalau Gateway crash/hang, error-nya langsung terlihat di terminal.

Langkahnya:

openclaw gateway stop
sleep 5
lsof -nP -iTCP:18789 -sTCP:LISTEN

Kalau masih ada PID, kill dulu:

kill <PID>

#

Lalu jalankan foreground:

OPENCLAW_DISABLE_BONJOUR=1 \
OPENCLAW_SKIP_CHANNELS=1 \
OPENCLAW_LOG_LEVEL=debug \
openclaw gateway --port 18789 --verbose --ws-log compact

Terminal itu akan “diam/terkunci” karena Gateway sedang berjalan. Itu normal.
Biarkan terbuka, lalu buka terminal lain untuk cek:

openclaw gateway status --deep

Stop foreground dengan Ctrl+C.

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 8:04 AM

#

Ini berarti foreground Gateway kamu memang sedang jalan di pid 82321 dan pegang port, tapi probe masih timeout. Jadi prosesnya hidup tapi tidak melayani WebSocket.

Di terminal foreground, lihat apakah ada log setelah gateway ready. Kalau ada, paste bagian terakhirnya.

Sekarang coba cek HTTP health endpoint dari terminal lain:

curl -v --max-time 5 http://127.0.0.1:18789/healthz
curl -v --max-time 5 http://127.0.0.1:18789/readyz

Kalau curl juga timeout, Gateway HTTP server benar-benar hang.

Lalu stop foreground dengan Ctrl+C, dan coba mode yang lebih minimal lagi:

#

OPENCLAW_DISABLE_BONJOUR=1 \
OPENCLAW_SKIP_CHANNELS=1 \
OPENCLAW_SKIP_CRON=1 \
OPENCLAW_LOG_LEVEL=debug \
openclaw gateway --port 18789 --allow-unconfigured --verbose --ws-log compact

Kalau masih timeout di mode minimal, ini sangat kuat mengarah ke bug/regression 2026.4.24 di startup/runtime. At that point: attach /root/.openclaw/logs/stability/...unhandled_rejection.json dan log foreground ke GitHub issue.

#

Bagus — ini berarti HTTP Gateway hidup:

/healthz -> 200 OK
/readyz -> 200 OK

Jadi prosesnya bukan mati total. Yang gagal sekarang adalah WebSocket/RPC probe yang dipakai openclaw gateway status.

Coba test RPC langsung dengan timeout lebih panjang:

openclaw gateway status --timeout 30000 --require-rpc
openclaw health --verbose
openclaw channels status --probe

#

Kalau:

healthz/readyz OK
tapi gateway status --require-rpc tetap timeout

maka ini kemungkinan bug di WS/RPC layer, bukan Telegram token.

Karena kamu sudah dapat crash sebelumnya:

Unhandled promise rejection: CIAO PROBING CANCELLED

pastikan Bonjour benar-benar disabled:

openclaw config get plugins.entries.bonjour.enabled

#

Harus false.

Kalau masih timeout, ini sudah layak dibuat GitHub issue dengan:

OpenClaw 2026.4.24
Node 22.22.2
log CIAO PROBING CANCELLED

Yeah, fair 😅 Stop debugging this one — it’s gone past normal setup troubleshooting.

Fast path:

openclaw gateway stop
openclaw plugins disable bonjour
openclaw gateway restart

If it still hangs after that, don’t keep fighting it. File a GitHub issue with the key error:

OpenClaw 2026.4.24
Node 22.22.2
Unhandled promise rejection: CIAO PROBING CANCELLED

#

HTTP /healthz and /readyz return 200, but gateway WS/RPC probe times out

Issue link: https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues

For now, Telegram token is probably fine — the Gateway/Bonjour crash is the blocker.

Oh good — this is progress. Gateway is responding now. This log is back to device scope approval, not crash.

Approve this new request:

openclaw devices approve ce817729-60ac-4e8c-8216-547f4d9e4abf

Then:

openclaw gateway status --deep
openclaw channels status --probe

If it says superseded/expired:

#

openclaw devices list
openclaw devices approve <latest-requestId>

After that, try Telegram /new again.

This happened because after reset/restart the CLI/device is asking to upgrade from:

operator.read

to full operator scopes. That approval is expected.

Good, Gateway is finally healthy ✅

Now it’s only Telegram routing/pairing. Run:

openclaw channels status --probe
openclaw pairing list telegram

If pairing shows a code:

openclaw pairing approve telegram <CODE>

Then send a normal message to the bot, not only /new, for example:

#

hi

If still no reply, watch logs while sending hi:

openclaw logs --follow

Meaning:

no log after sending Telegram message → polling not receiving updates / another poller / Telegram privacy/network issue
pairing request → approve pairing
blocked / allowlist → your Telegram user ID isn’t allowed
model error → Telegram is connected, but model/provider failed

Paste channels status --probe + log lines after sending hi.

sudah di approve tapi kenapa saya kirim pesan gada balasan ya

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 8:31 AM

#

Approval itu berarti Telegram sender sudah authorized ✅
Kalau setelah itu tidak ada balasan, kemungkinan tinggal 2 hal: polling Telegram tidak menerima pesan, atau agent/model gagal proses.

Coba ini:

openclaw channels status --probe
openclaw logs --follow

Saat logs terbuka, kirim pesan biasa ke bot Telegram:

hi

Bukan /new dulu.

#

Lihat hasil log:

Kalau ada inbound / pesan Telegram masuk tapi tidak ada reply → cek model:
```
openclaw models status
openclaw status --all
```
Kalau tidak ada log sama sekali saat kirim hi → Telegram polling belum menerima update / ada poller lain pakai token yang sama.
Kalau ada error model/Ollama → itu penyebab balasan tidak muncul.

Paste bagian log setelah kamu kirim hi — jangan paste token.

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 8:33 AM

#

ketika saya ketik HIi kenapa tidak ada masuk ke logs ya? aneh sekali

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 8:33 AM

#

Kemungkinan besar Telegram channel masih disabled dari test isolasi tadi.

Cek dulu:

openclaw config get channels.telegram.enabled
openclaw channels status --probe

Kalau hasilnya false, enable lagi:

openclaw config set --batch-json '[{"path":"channels.telegram.enabled","value":true},{"path":"channels.telegram.network.autoSelectFamily","value":false}]'
openclaw gateway restart
sleep 15
openclaw channels status --probe

#

Expected status Telegram harus kira-kira: enabled, configured, running, connected atau minimal tidak stopped.

Lalu buka logs:

openclaw logs --follow

Kirim hi ke bot yang benar (@Ryan_11_bot). Kalau masih tidak muncul log sama sekali, berarti polling Telegram belum aktif / token dipakai poller lain.

Yep, that matches what we found — thanks Adina.

For this setup, use the CLI-safe version:

openclaw plugins disable bonjour

or direct config:

openclaw config set plugins.entries.bonjour.enabled false
openclaw gateway restart

Then re-enable Telegram if we disabled it during testing:

#

openclaw config set channels.telegram.enabled true
openclaw gateway restart
openclaw channels status --probe

Bonjour isn’t needed for Telegram, so keeping it disabled on a VM is fine.

Good: log ini menunjukkan Bonjour sudah tidak muncul, dan Telegram provider mulai:

[default] starting provider (@Ryan_11_bot)

Sekarang tunggu 30–60 detik lalu cek:

openclaw gateway status --deep
openclaw channels status --probe

Kalau masih timeout dan log berhenti persis setelah:

#

[default] starting provider (@Ryan_11_bot)

berarti sekarang yang bikin startup hang adalah Telegram polling/network, bukan Bonjour.

Test cepat:

openclaw config set channels.telegram.network.autoSelectFamily false
openclaw gateway restart
sleep 30
openclaw channels status --probe

Kalau masih hang, matikan Telegram sementara untuk konfirmasi:

#

openclaw config set channels.telegram.enabled false
openclaw gateway restart
sleep 20
openclaw gateway status --deep

Jika Gateway OK saat Telegram disabled, maka problemnya Telegram network/polling ke api.telegram.org dari VM itu.

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 8:51 AM

#

sudah tidak timeput saya cek gateway status

apakah lanjut test cepat?
openclaw config set channels.telegram.network.autoSelectFamily false
openclaw gateway restart
sleep 30
openclaw channels status --probe

atau say hi aja?

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 8:51 AM

#

Kalau gateway sudah tidak timeout, jangan ubah config lagi dulu 👍

Lanjut test paling sederhana:

Buka logs:
```
openclaw logs --follow
```
Kirim pesan biasa ke Telegram bot:
```
hi
```
Kalau ada pairing/blocked/model error, logs akan kelihatan.

Kalau hi masuk ke logs tapi tidak ada reply, baru cek model/status.

#

Kalau hi tidak muncul di logs, baru kita lanjut ubah autoSelectFamily false / cek Telegram polling.

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 8:52 AM

#

setelah say hi logs tidak jalan ahahaha
lanjut apa?

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 8:53 AM

#

Haha oke, berarti Gateway sehat tapi Telegram polling belum menerima update.

Lanjut langkah ini:

openclaw channels status --probe

Lihat apakah Telegram connected atau masih disconnected.

Lalu paksa IPv4 mode untuk Telegram:

openclaw config set channels.telegram.network.autoSelectFamily false
openclaw gateway restart
sleep 30

#

openclaw channels status --probe

Setelah itu buka logs lagi:

openclaw logs --follow

Kirim hi ke bot.

Kalau masih tidak muncul, kemungkinan besar:

token bot dipakai poller lain, atau
Telegram update offset/webhook nyangkut.

Cek webhook/poller state:

#

curl "https://api.telegram.org/bot<YOUR_BOT_TOKEN>/getWebhookInfo"

Jangan paste tokennya. Paste hasil getWebhookInfo aja.

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 8:54 AM

hmmm ini saya masih jalankan ini
openclaw channels status --probe

ada balasan dari telgram

Hey! I just came online — fresh workspace, no memory yet. Who am I? Who are you?

Let's figure this out together. What should I call you, and what do you want to call me?

bingung jg saya jadinya

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 8:54 AM

#

Itu justru berhasil 🎉

Pesan itu bukan dari channels status; itu bot Telegram kamu akhirnya memproses pesan sebelumnya dan membalas. Karena kamu reset full, workspace/memory masih kosong, jadi agent bertanya “Who am I? Who are you?”

Sekarang jawab di Telegram saja, misalnya:

You are my OpenClaw assistant. Call me wiwir.

Atau kalau mau singkat:

Call me wiwir. You are Ryan.

Setelah itu test normal:

#

hi

Kalau dia balas, setup Telegram sudah jalan.
Dan jangan lupa: biarkan Bonjour disabled di VM.

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 8:58 AM

#

oke biarkan sy explore sebentar, sy akan konfirm ke kamu jika ada yg aneh

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 8:58 AM

#

Siap — explore dulu 👍

Ringkasnya yang penting:

Telegram sudah jalan.
Bonjour tetap disabled di VM.
Kalau ada error lagi, kirim openclaw logs --follow bagian terbaru + openclaw channels status --probe.

Happy testing! 🦐

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 9:22 AM

#

kenapa logs saya terakhir itu 08:53 ya, padahal saya lagi chatan di telegram di jam 09:22

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 9:23 AM

#

Itu bisa normal. File log Gateway bukan chat transcript lengkap — kalau tidak ada warning/error/status event baru, log bisa berhenti di 08:53 walaupun Telegram chat masih jalan.

Cek 2 hal ini:

openclaw gateway status --deep

Pastikan File logs: masih file yang sama.

Lalu:

openclaw channels status --probe

Kalau Telegram ada in: ... / out: ... atau status connected, berarti pesan tetap diproses.

#

Kalau mau lihat live event saat kirim pesan:

openclaw logs --follow

Lalu kirim pesan baru di Telegram. Kalau chat tetap dibalas tapi logs tidak nambah, berarti cuma logging normal mode tidak mencatat tiap pesan — tidak masalah.

saya mau buka dashboard http://127.0.0.1:18789/
unauthorized: device token mismatch (rotate/reissue device token)

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 9:27 AM

#

Itu dashboard/browser device token lama tidak cocok setelah reset/rotate. Telegram tidak masalah.

Paling gampang: buka dashboard lewat CLI supaya token terbaru ikut kebawa:

openclaw dashboard

Kalau tetap error:

Di browser buka http://127.0.0.1:18789/
Clear site data untuk 127.0.0.1:18789 / logout dashboard
Masukkan Gateway Token terbaru di Overview → Gateway Access

Ambil token terbaru dari host:

#

openclaw config get gateway.auth.token

Kalau masih mismatch, rotate/remove device token:

openclaw devices list
openclaw devices rotate --device <deviceId> --role operator

Atau paling bersih untuk browser lama:

openclaw devices remove <deviceId>

#

lalu refresh dashboard dan approve pairing baru jika diminta. Docs: https://docs.openclaw.ai/web/dashboard#if-you-see-unauthorized-1008

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 9:27 AM

#

gimana cara dapat deviceid

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 9:28 AM

#

Pakai:

openclaw devices list

Di output itu akan ada daftar paired devices + pending requests. Cari entry yang kira-kira browser/dashboard kamu, lalu ambil nilai Device ID.

Kalau mau format lebih jelas:

openclaw devices list --json

Biasanya field-nya bernama deviceId.

Untuk kasus dashboard browser lama, opsi paling simpel:

#

Clear site data browser untuk 127.0.0.1:18789
Buka ulang dashboard
Approve pairing baru kalau muncul:

openclaw devices list
openclaw devices approve <requestId>

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 10:13 AM

#

saya mau remove semua device sekaligus tiak 1 per 1 bosa?

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 10:13 AM

#

Bisa. Untuk hapus semua paired devices:

openclaw devices clear --yes

Kalau mau hapus pending request juga:

openclaw devices clear --yes --pending

Setelah itu buka dashboard lagi / connect ulang, nanti pairing baru akan muncul:

openclaw devices list

#

openclaw devices approve <requestId>

Hati-hati: semua browser/node/device yang pernah paired harus pairing ulang.

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 10:14 AM

#

sebenarnya bingung jg ini paired device ini apakah channel?

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 10:14 AM

#

Bukan — paired device itu bukan channel.

Bedanya:

Channel = tempat chat masuk/keluar
Contoh: Telegram, Discord, WhatsApp, Signal.
Paired device = client/operator yang boleh connect ke Gateway
Contoh: browser dashboard, CLI lokal, mobile app/node, Control UI.

Jadi Telegram bot kamu = channel.
Browser dashboard kamu = paired device.

Kalau kamu openclaw devices clear --yes, itu tidak menghapus Telegram channel/token, tapi dashboard/browser/CLI mungkin perlu approve pairing lagi.

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 10:14 AM

#

jadi kalo telegram yg connect ke gateway itu tidak device? soalnya tadi ada approve device di kendala kita tadi

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 10:15 AM

#

Benar: Telegram bot tidak connect sebagai “device”.

Yang terjadi tadi ada 2 approval berbeda:

Device approval
Itu untuk CLI/browser/dashboard yang connect ke Gateway WebSocket.
Contoh error tadi:
```
scope upgrade pending approval
```
Itu CLI/device kamu minta izin lebih tinggi ke Gateway.
Telegram pairing approval
Itu untuk mengizinkan sender Telegram kamu (6881327231) chat ke bot.
Contoh:

#

   Approved telegram sender 6881327231

Jadi:

Telegram provider berjalan di dalam Gateway
User Telegram perlu pairing/allow approval
Browser/CLI perlu device approval

Nama “pairing” memang bikin bingung karena dipakai di dua konteks 😅

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 10:15 AM

#

oke jadi ini bagusnya bagaimana

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 10:15 AM

#

Bagusnya begini — jangan clear semua device kalau tidak perlu.

Rekomendasi setup kamu:

Biarkan Telegram channel seperti sekarang
Sudah jalan, sender Telegram sudah approved.

Bonjour tetap disabled di VM:

openclaw config get plugins.entries.bonjour.enabled

Pastikan false.

Untuk dashboard error device token mismatch, pilih cara paling simpel:
- Clear site data browser untuk http://127.0.0.1:18789
- Buka lagi dashboard
- Approve pairing baru:

#

     openclaw devices list
     openclaw devices approve <requestId>
     ```

4. Kalau device list sudah kacau banget, baru:
   ```bash
   openclaw devices clear --yes --pending

lalu pairing ulang dashboard/CLI jika diminta.

Jadi: jangan reset OpenClaw lagi. Cukup repair dashboard device pairing.

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 10:16 AM

#

sudah clear tapi muncul ini ketika buka web
unauthorized: gateway token missing (open the dashboard URL and paste the token in Control UI settings)

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 10:16 AM

#

Itu normal setelah clear device/site data: browser belum punya Gateway Token.

Cara paling gampang:

openclaw dashboard

Command itu biasanya print/open URL dashboard dengan token.

Kalau mau manual, ambil token:

openclaw config get gateway.auth.token

Lalu di web dashboard:

#

Buka http://127.0.0.1:18789/
Masuk ke Overview → Gateway Access
Paste token ke field Gateway Token
Klik Connect

Kalau setelah connect muncul pairing request:

openclaw devices list
openclaw devices approve <requestId>

Jangan paste token di Discord.

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 10:17 AM

#

gateway token saya ini
OPENCLAW_REDACTED

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 10:17 AM

#

Jangan paste gateway token di Discord ya — itu rahasia/admin access. Untung sudah redacted.

Sekarang pakai token itu hanya di dashboard:

Buka http://127.0.0.1:18789/
Overview → Gateway Access
Paste ke field Gateway Token
Klik Connect

Kalau kamu sudah pernah paste token asli di tempat publik, rotate token:

openclaw config set gateway.auth.token "$(openssl rand -hex 32)"
openclaw gateway restart

Lalu pakai token baru di dashboard.

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 10:18 AM

#

apa artinya redacted

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 10:18 AM

#

redacted artinya disensor/disembunyikan otomatis.

Jadi token asli kamu tidak tampil di Discord; sistem menggantinya dengan:

__OPENCLAW_REDACTED__

Itu bagus, karena gateway token adalah rahasia. Tetap jangan sengaja kirim token asli ke chat publik.

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 10:19 AM

#

tapi itu hasil dari terminal saya ketika saya run ini openclaw config get gateway.auth.token

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 10:19 AM

#

Ah, paham. Kalau terminal juga menampilkan:

__OPENCLAW_REDACTED__

berarti itu bukan token asli yang bisa dipakai, tapi output disensor.

Paling gampang coba dulu:

openclaw dashboard

Kalau dashboard tetap minta token, buat token baru yang kamu tahu:

#

TOKEN=$(openssl rand -hex 32)
openclaw config set gateway.auth.token "$TOKEN"
openclaw gateway restart
echo "$TOKEN"

Copy hasil echo "$TOKEN" dari terminal, lalu paste di Dashboard → Overview → Gateway Access → Gateway Token → Connect.

Jangan paste token itu ke Discord.

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 10:27 AM

#

oke sudah bisa

saya cek file soul.md dan lainnya kok gak keupdate ya? padahal sy sudah lakukan introduce

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 10:27 AM

#

Itu normal. Introduce/chat biasa tidak otomatis mengubah SOUL.md, USER.md, dll. Biasanya itu hanya masuk ke konteks/session chat, kecuali kamu eksplisit minta agent untuk menyimpan ke file.

File yang relevan:

SOUL.md = personality/behavior assistant
IDENTITY.md = nama/identitas assistant
USER.md = info tentang kamu
MEMORY.md / memory/*.md = durable memories

Karena kamu reset full tadi, workspace baru ada di:

/root/.openclaw/workspace/

Cek:

#

ls -la /root/.openclaw/workspace
cat /root/.openclaw/workspace/USER.md
cat /root/.openclaw/workspace/IDENTITY.md

Kalau mau agent update, bilang di Telegram secara eksplisit, contoh:

Please save this to your workspace files:
- My name is wiwir
- Call yourself Ryan
- Update USER.md and IDENTITY.md accordingly

Atau edit manual file-nya. Docs: https://docs.openclaw.ai/concepts/agent-workspace

bagaimana cara aktivasi browsing, saya host di VPS? apakah pakai headless chromium?

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 10:37 AM

#

Iya, di VPS biasanya pakai headless Chromium/Chrome.

Rekomendasi paling aman di Ubuntu VPS: pakai Google Chrome .deb, bukan snap Chromium.

wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb
sudo apt --fix-broken install -y

Karena kamu jalan sebagai root/VPS headless, set:

openclaw config set --batch-json '[
  {"path":"browser.enabled","value":true},
  {"path":"browser.executablePath","value":"/usr/bin/google-chrome-stable"},

#

  {"path":"browser.headless","value":true},
  {"path":"browser.noSandbox","value":true}
]'
openclaw gateway restart

Test:

openclaw browser --browser-profile openclaw doctor --deep
openclaw browser --browser-profile openclaw start
openclaw browser --browser-profile openclaw open https://example.com
openclaw browser --browser-profile openclaw snapshot

Kalau agent bilang browser tool unavailable, cek tool allowlist. Kalau kamu pakai tools.profile: "coding", tambahkan browser ke allowlist.

#

Catatan: VPS/headless bisa kena anti-bot di beberapa situs. Untuk situs login/anti-bot, lebih bagus Gateway tetap di VPS tapi browser dijalankan di laptop/PC via node host.

Catatan: VPS/headless bisa kena anti-bot di beberapa situs. Untuk situs login/anti-bot, lebih bagus Gateway tetap di VPS tapi browser dijalankan di laptop/PC via node host.

jika saya sewa VPS, tapi mau pakai nodehost seperti yg kamu bilang, emang bisa?

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 10:40 AM

#

Bisa. Polanya:

VPS = Gateway utama
Laptop/PC kamu = node host yang connect ke Gateway VPS.

Jadi agent tetap kamu chat lewat Telegram ke VPS, tapi kalau butuh browser lokal, Gateway bisa pakai browser proxy dari node host di laptop/PC.

Skema:

Telegram → Gateway di VPS → node host di laptop/PC → Chrome lokal

Basic flow:

Di VPS, Gateway harus bisa diakses dari laptop/PC:
- paling aman pakai Tailscale, atau

#

SSH tunnel / wss reverse proxy.

Di laptop/PC install OpenClaw juga, lalu jalankan node host:

openclaw node run --host <gateway-host> --port 18789

Kalau pakai non-TLS private network/Tailscale ws://, mungkin perlu:

OPENCLAW_ALLOW_INSECURE_PRIVATE_WS=1 openclaw node run --host <gateway-tailnet-ip-or-name> --port 18789

Di VPS approve node pairing:

#

openclaw devices list
openclaw devices approve <requestId>

Setelah node connected, browser proxy biasanya auto-advertise kalau browser enabled di node.

(Did you mean --help?)

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 10:42 AM

#

Looks like your installed 2026.4.24 doesn’t support browser doctor --deep yet / flag differs. Use plain doctor:

openclaw browser --browser-profile openclaw doctor
openclaw browser --browser-profile openclaw start --headless
openclaw browser --browser-profile openclaw open https://example.com/
openclaw browser --browser-profile openclaw snapshot

If start --headless also says unknown option, just:

openclaw browser --browser-profile openclaw start

because you already set:

#

browser.headless = true

Also useful:

openclaw browser --help
openclaw browser doctor --help

Docs may be slightly ahead of your installed version here.

◇
GatewayClientRequestError: Playwright is not available in this gateway build; 'ai snapshot' is unsupported.

Itu berarti browser dasar bisa start/open, tapi fitur snapshot butuh dependency playwright-core yang belum ke-install di bundled browser plugin.

Jalankan:

openclaw doctor --fix
openclaw gateway restart

Lalu test ulang:

openclaw browser --browser-profile openclaw snapshot

Kalau doctor --fix gagal karena install global/root-owned, pakai stage dir writable:

#

mkdir -p /var/lib/openclaw/plugin-runtime-deps
OPENCLAW_PLUGIN_STAGE_DIR=/var/lib/openclaw/plugin-runtime-deps openclaw doctor --fix

Karena kamu di VPS headless dan sudah install Chrome .deb, biasanya tidak perlu install Chromium Playwright terpisah — error ini spesifik playwright-core missing.

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 3:27 PM

#

Itu cuma saran optimasi startup, bukan error.

Artinya:

NODE_COMPILE_CACHE belum diset → CLI OpenClaw bisa lebih lambat saat sering dipanggil di VPS kecil.
OPENCLAW_NO_RESPAWN=1 belum diset → ada sedikit overhead startup tambahan.

Boleh diabaikan. Kalau mau pakai untuk terminal saat ini:

mkdir -p /var/tmp/openclaw-compile-cache
export NODE_COMPILE_CACHE=/var/tmp/openclaw-compile-cache
export OPENCLAW_NO_RESPAWN=1

Tapi ini hanya berlaku di shell itu. Tidak ada hubungannya langsung dengan error Playwright.

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 3:28 PM

#

jujur ketika pakai command openclaw entah kenapa seperti lambat ketika proses datanya

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 3:28 PM

#

Iya, di VPS kecil itu bisa terasa lambat. Coba aktifkan cache startup tadi secara permanen untuk shell kamu.

Kalau pakai bash/root:

mkdir -p /var/tmp/openclaw-compile-cache

cat >> ~/.bashrc <<'EOF'
export NODE_COMPILE_CACHE=/var/tmp/openclaw-compile-cache
export OPENCLAW_NO_RESPAWN=1
EOF

source ~/.bashrc

Lalu test:

#

time openclaw --version
time openclaw status

Kalau service Gateway juga mau pakai env itu, perlu masuk ke systemd user service/drop-in. Tapi untuk command CLI yang kamu jalankan manual, .bashrc cukup.

Tambahan: command seperti status --all, doctor --fix, dan channels status --probe memang lebih lambat karena cek gateway, plugin, channel, dan logs. For quick check pakai:

openclaw gateway status
openclaw status

#

bagaimana cara close semua tab browser? apakah akan otomatis atau manual? karena browser chrome makan RAM kan?

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 3:31 PM

#

Bisa manual dan ada auto-cleanup.

Manual paling gampang: stop browser profile:

openclaw browser --browser-profile openclaw stop

Itu menutup browser managed OpenClaw, jadi RAM Chrome lepas.

Kalau cuma mau lihat/close tab satu-satu:

openclaw browser --browser-profile openclaw tabs
openclaw browser --browser-profile openclaw close t1
openclaw browser --browser-profile openclaw close t2

#

Auto-cleanup juga ada via config browser.tabCleanup, defaultnya aktif. Untuk VPS kecil, kamu bisa set lebih agresif:

openclaw config set --batch-json '[
  {"path":"browser.tabCleanup.enabled","value":true},
  {"path":"browser.tabCleanup.idleMinutes","value":30},
  {"path":"browser.tabCleanup.maxTabsPerSession","value":3},
  {"path":"browser.tabCleanup.sweepMinutes","value":5}
]'

Kalau RAM sangat kecil, pakai browser stop setelah selesai browsing.

Itu masih cuma warning optimasi, bukan hasil repair Playwright.

Lanjutkan saja sampai command selesai, lalu paste bagian setelah box itu — biasanya ada hasil doctor --fix.

Kalau mau hilangkan warning dan bikin CLI lebih cepat:

mkdir -p /var/tmp/openclaw-compile-cache
export NODE_COMPILE_CACHE=/var/tmp/openclaw-compile-cache
export OPENCLAW_NO_RESPAWN=1

Lalu ulangi command repair:

OPENCLAW_PLUGIN_STAGE_DIR=/var/lib/openclaw/plugin-runtime-deps openclaw doctor --fix

#

Yang saya perlu lihat adalah apakah doctor bilang berhasil install/repair runtime dependencies atau ada error npm/install.

Itu masih ringkasan umum doctor — belum kelihatan bagian repair dependency.

Coba cari apakah playwright-core sudah ada di stage dir:

find /var/lib/openclaw/plugin-runtime-deps -maxdepth 5 -type d -name playwright-core

Kalau hasilnya kosong, coba paksa enable/repair browser plugin dependency:

openclaw config set browser.enabled true
OPENCLAW_PLUGIN_STAGE_DIR=/var/lib/openclaw/plugin-runtime-deps openclaw doctor --fix

Lalu cek lagi:

#

find /var/lib/openclaw/plugin-runtime-deps -maxdepth 5 -type d -name playwright-core

Kalau sudah ada, restart:

openclaw gateway restart
openclaw browser --browser-profile openclaw snapshot

Kalau masih kosong, paste bagian akhir doctor --fix setelah Plugins — mungkin ada warning dependency repair yang kelewat.

#

Doctor sekarang bilang Gateway timeout lagi. Kita jangan lanjut snapshot sampai Gateway sehat.

Kemungkinan service stuck lagi. Karena sebelumnya penyebabnya Bonjour/Telegram startup. Jalankan:

openclaw config get plugins.entries.bonjour.enabled
openclaw gateway stop
sleep 5
kill 158818
sleep 3
openclaw gateway start
sleep 20
openclaw gateway status --deep

Kalau masih timeout, cek log terakhir:

#

tail -n 120 /tmp/openclaw/openclaw-2026-04-27.log

Untuk Playwright, nanti setelah Gateway sehat baru lanjut. Shell completion warning bisa diabaikan.

#

Ini sekarang bukan Playwright dulu — Gateway-nya mati setelah doctor restart.

Jangan loop doctor --fix lagi dulu. Cek kenapa service exit:

openclaw gateway start
sleep 10
openclaw gateway status --deep
tail -n 150 /tmp/openclaw/openclaw-2026-04-27.log
tail -n 80 /root/.openclaw/logs/gateway-restart.log

Karena ada folder:

openclaw-unknown-...

#

ini mirip masalah plugin runtime deps di 2026.4.24. Untuk balikin Telegram stabil dulu, disable browser sementara:

openclaw config set plugins.entries.browser.enabled false
openclaw gateway restart
sleep 15
openclaw gateway status --deep

Kalau Gateway sehat lagi, berarti problemnya browser/plugin deps. Nanti baru repair browser setelah OpenClaw stabil.

stage dir: /var/lib/openclaw/plugin-runtime-deps/openclaw-2026.4.24-4eca5026e977/node_modules/playwright-core

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 3:40 PM

#

Great — playwright-core is installed in the stage dir. Now Gateway just needs to start with that stage dir env.

Make sure systemd has it:

mkdir -p ~/.config/systemd/user/openclaw-gateway.service.d

cat > ~/.config/systemd/user/openclaw-gateway.service.d/override.conf <<'EOF'
[Service]
Environment=OPENCLAW_PLUGIN_STAGE_DIR=/var/lib/openclaw/plugin-runtime-deps
Environment=OPENCLAW_DISABLE_BONJOUR=1
EOF

systemctl --user daemon-reload
openclaw gateway restart
sleep 20

#

openclaw gateway status --deep

If Gateway is OK:

openclaw browser --browser-profile openclaw snapshot

If Gateway not running, paste:

tail -n 150 /tmp/openclaw/openclaw-2026-04-27.log
tail -n 80 /root/.openclaw/logs/gateway-restart.log

aneh sekali telegram saya jadi balas ini
No further note from me.

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 3:44 PM

#

Itu kemungkinan bukan error Gateway — itu jawaban agent/model yang lagi “bingung konteks” atau merespons task yang selesai/empty.

Coba kirim pesan jelas di Telegram:

Please reply with exactly: test ok

Kalau dia balas test ok, Telegram normal.

Kalau masih jawab aneh, mulai fresh session:

/new

lalu:

#

Hi, please introduce yourself briefly.

Kalau masih aneh setelah /new, cek model yang dipakai:

openclaw status
openclaw models status

Tadi terlihat model kamu ollama/minimax-m2.5; kalau model lokal/kurang cocok, respons bisa agak random.

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 3:45 PM

#

/new ketika new lambat sekali cuy

#

belum ada respon

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 3:45 PM

#

Kemungkinan Gateway lagi restart / model run stuck setelah perubahan browser tadi.

Cek cepat:

openclaw gateway status --deep
openclaw channels status --probe
openclaw logs --follow

Saat logs --follow terbuka, kirim lagi di Telegram:

test ok

Kalau logs menunjukkan pesan masuk tapi tidak ada final reply, cek model:

#

openclaw models status
openclaw status --all

Kalau Gateway timeout/not running, sementara disable browser dulu supaya Telegram stabil:

openclaw config set plugins.entries.browser.enabled false
openclaw gateway restart
sleep 20
openclaw gateway status --deep

oke sudah bisa, tadikyknya lg proses instalasi tapi gak respon, sy hidupin mode thinking ke medium, thinking apakah makan token?

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 3:48 PM

#

Iya, thinking makan token — biasanya cukup signifikan, tergantung model/provider.

Rule of thumb:

thinking off/low: hemat, cukup untuk chat ringan / command sederhana
medium: bagus untuk troubleshooting, coding, planning
high: pakai kalau task kompleks; bisa lebih lambat dan mahal

Untuk pemakaian Telegram harian, saran saya:

/think low

atau off kalau cuma ngobrol ringan.

Naikkan ke medium saat:

/think medium

kalau minta dia debug/setup/coding.

ketika saya buat openclaw dashboard, kenapa di terminal tidak memberikan token dan ssh tunnel?
hasilnya masa gini aja
Dashboard URL: http://127.0.0.1:18789/
Token auto-auth included in browser/clipboard URL.
Copy to clipboard unavailable.
Opened in your browser. Keep that tab to control OpenClaw.

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 3:51 PM

#

Itu normal.

openclaw dashboard sengaja tidak print token mentah ke terminal supaya tidak bocor. Pesan:

Token auto-auth included in browser/clipboard URL.

artinya token disisipkan ke URL/fragment untuk browser yang dibuka, tapi tidak ditampilkan.

Kenapa tidak kasih SSH tunnel? Karena dari sudut pandang VPS, dashboard URL adalah lokal:

http://127.0.0.1:18789/

Kalau kamu akses dari laptop ke VPS, pakai tunnel manual:

#

ssh -N -L 18789:127.0.0.1:18789 root@IP_VPS

Lalu di laptop buka:

http://127.0.0.1:18789/

Kalau butuh token manual, lebih aman generate sendiri seperti tadi atau pakai Dashboard Gateway Access. Jangan share token di Discord.

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 3:52 PM

#

Itu warning SSH penting: laptop kamu pernah connect ke IP/host itu dengan host key lama, sekarang key-nya beda.

Kalau VPS baru/reinstall/reset provider, ini normal. Kalau bukan, hati-hati.

Fix setelah kamu yakin IP/host benar:

ssh-keygen -R <IP_VPS>

Kalau kamu connect pakai hostname:

ssh-keygen -R <hostname>

Lalu connect ulang:

#

ssh -N -L 18789:127.0.0.1:18789 root@<IP_VPS>

Saat ditanya accept fingerprint, pastikan itu memang VPS kamu, lalu ketik yes.

Kalau pakai port custom SSH:

ssh-keygen -R '[<IP_VPS>]:<PORT>'
ssh -p <PORT> -N -L 18789:127.0.0.1:18789 root@<IP_VPS>

cara cek token

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 3:53 PM

#

Untuk Gateway token, coba:

openclaw config get gateway.auth.token

Kalau hasilnya __OPENCLAW_REDACTED__, berarti disensor. Cara praktis: buat token baru yang kamu tahu:

TOKEN=$(openssl rand -hex 32)
openclaw config set gateway.auth.token "$TOKEN"
openclaw gateway restart
echo "$TOKEN"

Copy hasil echo "$TOKEN" ke dashboard Gateway Token. Jangan kirim ke Discord.

#

Kalau maksudnya Telegram bot token, jangan cek/share di Discord. Bisa lihat status aman:

openclaw channels status --probe

Itu hanya menampilkan token redacted.

modest pagoda Apr 27, 2026, 3:57 PM

#

entah kenapa asal buat command openclaw di terminal lambat ya ada cara suoaya ceoat>

zenith saffronBOT Apr 27, 2026, 3:58 PM

#

Bisa dipercepat sedikit, terutama di VPS kecil.

Jalankan:

mkdir -p /var/tmp/openclaw-compile-cache

cat >> ~/.bashrc <<'EOF'
export NODE_COMPILE_CACHE=/var/tmp/openclaw-compile-cache
export OPENCLAW_NO_RESPAWN=1
EOF

source ~/.bashrc

Lalu test:

#

time openclaw --version
time openclaw gateway status

Untuk command cepat, pakai:

openclaw gateway status
openclaw status

Hindari kalau tidak perlu:

openclaw status --all
openclaw doctor --fix
openclaw channels status --probe

#

karena itu memang lebih berat: cek plugin, channel, logs, health, dll.
