MEVCORE
runtime.telegram_conflict

The Telegram bot is running somewhere else too

A mevcore app hosting error at the “start / health check” stage.

What it means

Telegram gives updates to one getUpdates poller only.

The build passed, but the app did not start or did not answer the health check.

Typical causes

  • The app does not listen on 0.0.0.0 and the port from the PORT variable
  • An environment variable is missing, or the database or Redis is not connected
  • The start command is wrong or the process exits right away

How to fix it on mevcore

Stop the other copy of the bot (on your computer, another hosting, a second instance) or, if a webhook is set, remove it (deleteWebhook) or switch the bot to webhooks. After that restart the application.

  1. 1 Open the app in the mevcore panel: the Problems card on the overview shows this error and the log line it was found in.
  2. 2 After the fix, deploy again. If it fails again, the log ends with [mevcore] lines naming the new error code.
  3. 3 The "Ask AI" button next to the error prepares a request for ChatGPT or Claude: the error code, the end of the log without secrets and the app settings.

For an AI assistant

The same in English: paste it together with the log into the AI chat.
