尝试启动Discord机器人时出现“错误：无法验证第一个证书”

Question

I've encountered an error when setting up a discord bot using Visual Studio Code & Node.
This is the code that makes the bot go online:

const Discord = require('discord.js');
const bot = new Discord.Client();
bot.login('[the token i recieved for my bot]');

The error I get from running this is:

(node:7064) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: unable to verify the first certificate    warning.js:18
 at TLSSocket.onConnectSecure (_tls_wrap.js:1049:34)
 at TLSSocket.emit (events.js:182:13)
 at TLSSocket._finishInit (_tls_wrap.js:631:8)
(node:7064) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Unhandled promise rejection. This error originated either 
 by throwing inside of an async function without a catch block, or by rejecting a promise which was not
 handled with .catch(). (rejection id: 2)    warning.js:18
(node:7064) [DEP0018] DeprecationWarning: Unhandled promise rejections are deprecated. In the future,
 promise rejections that are not handled will terminate the Node.js process with a non-zero exit code.    warning.js:18

Can anyone help me debug this or not get this error?

Answer 1

I was not able to reproduce your error, using the exact same setup.

discord.js: v11.4.2 and Visual Studio Code: v1.28.2

If you still experience this issue, maybe this can help you .
