Hello, Ever since updating to 0.66.3, we’ve had a weird issue where the Slack bridge stops working both ways on private channels once the service is restarted. Once the service restarts, the bridge only works from Slack → Rocket. Public channels work fine regardless of restarts. If we create a new room private room it’ll work two way until a restart, and then that room will only start working one way as well. I have the logs posted on the GitHub issue: > > > \### Description: > > We upgraded to version 0.66.3 yesterday. Now, private channe…ls are only bridging one way (from Slack to Rocket, but not from Rocket to Slack). If I create a new private channel it'll work fine (2 way) until I restart the service again, at which point that channel will also have the same issue. > Public channels work fine (2 way); issue only occurs with private channels. > > \### Steps to reproduce: > > Create new private channel. > Test 2 way. > Restart service. > Test 2 way. > > \### Server Setup Information: > > \- Version of Rocket.Chat Server: 0.66.3 > \- Operating System: Linux > \- Deployment Method: Manual > \- Number of Running Instances: 1 > \- DB Replicaset Oplog: Enabled > \- NodeJS Version: 8.11.3 > \- MongoDB Version: 3.0.15 > > \### Additional context > > Issue only started after latest upgrade. > > \### Relevant logs: > > When the bridge is working 2 way: > \`\`\`\[34mI20180717-16:49:59.868(0) \[34mMeteor ➔ method stream-notify-room -\> userId: p3zCZunKWSKej27qB , arguments: { '0': 'Z7tZQmR9ZicuZLa8Q/typing', '1': 'NeuralMiner', '2': false } > \[34mI20180717-16:49:59.872(0) \[34mMeteor ➔ method sendMessage -\> userId: p3zCZunKWSKej27qB , arguments: { '0': { \_id: 'masf7XT9ESTCScsL9', rid: 'Z7tZQmR9ZicuZLa8Q', msg: '4' } } > \[34mI20180717-16:49:59.874(0) \[34mMeteor ➔ method canAccessRoom -\> userId: p3zCZunKWSKej27qB , arguments: { '0': 'Z7tZQmR9ZicuZLa8Q', '1': 'p3zCZunKWSKej27qB' } > \[34mI20180717-16:49:59.912(0) \[34mIntegrations ➔ Outgoing WebHook.debug Execute Trigger: sendMessage > \[34mI20180717-16:49:59.913(0) \[34mIntegrations ➔ Outgoing WebHook.debug Got the event arguments for the event: sendMessage { event: 'sendMessage', message: { \_id: 'masf7XT9ESTCScsL9', rid: 'Z7tZQmR9ZicuZLa8Q', msg: '4', ts: 2018-07-17T16:49:59.873Z, u: { \_id: 'p3zCZunKWSKej27qB', username: 'NeuralMiner', name: 'NeuralMiner' }, \_updatedAt: 2018-07-17T16:49:59.881Z, editedBy: undefined, editedAt: undefined, emoji: undefined, avatar: undefined, alias: undefined, customFields: undefined, attachments: undefined, mentions: \[\], channels: \[\], sandstormSessionId: null }, room: { \_id: 'Z7tZQmR9ZicuZLa8Q', name: 'testing', fname: 'testing', t: 'p', msgs: 22, u: { \_id: 'p3zCZunKWSKej27qB', username: 'NeuralMiner' }, ts: 2018-07-17T16:06:56.571Z, ro: false, sysMes: true, \_updatedAt: 2018-07-17T16:48:32.249Z, importIds: \['GBRTWAHQB' \], lm: 2018-07-17T16:48:32.230Z, meta: { revision: 17, created: 1531844959441, version: 0, updated: 1531846112253 }, '$loki': 130, usernames: \['NeuralMiner', 'rocketbot' \], username: 'NeuralMiner' } } > \[34mI20180717-16:49:59.914(0) \[34mIntegrations ➔ Outgoing WebHook.debug Starting search for triggers for the room: Z7tZQmR9ZicuZLa8Q > \[34mI20180717-16:49:59.914(0) \[34mIntegrations ➔ Outgoing WebHook.debug Found 0 to iterate over and see if the match the event. > > After the restart (only working 1 way): > > \[34mI20180717-16:56:09.274(0) \[34mMeteor ➔ method sendMessage -\> userId: p3zCZunKWSKej27qB , arguments: { '0': { \_id: 'iKDsLcfFT2u9nXrcr', rid: 'Z7tZQmR9ZicuZLa8Q', msg: '888' } } > \[34mI20180717-16:56:09.276(0) \[34mMeteor ➔ method canAccessRoom -\> userId: p3zCZunKWSKej27qB , arguments: { '0': 'Z7tZQmR9ZicuZLa8Q', '1': 'p3zCZunKWSKej27qB' } > \[34mI20180717-16:56:09.314(0) \[34mIntegrations ➔ Outgoing WebHook.debug Execute Trigger: sendMessage > \[34mI20180717-16:56:09.316(0) \[34mIntegrations ➔ Outgoing WebHook.debug Got the event arguments for the event: sendMessage { event: 'sendMessage', message: { \_id: 'iKDsLcfFT2u9nXrcr', rid: 'Z7tZQmR9ZicuZLa8Q', msg: '888', ts: 2018-07-17T16:56:09.275Z, u: { \_id: 'p3zCZunKWSKej27qB', username: 'NeuralMiner', name: 'NeuralMiner' }, \_updatedAt: 2018-07-17T16:56:09.283Z, editedBy: undefined, editedAt: undefined, emoji: undefined, avatar: undefined, alias: undefined, customFields: undefined, attachments: undefined, mentions: \[\], channels: \[\], sandstormSessionId: null }, room: { \_id: 'Z7tZQmR9ZicuZLa8Q', name: 'testing', fname: 'testing', t: 'p', msgs: 24, u: { \_id: 'p3zCZunKWSKej27qB', username: 'NeuralMiner' }, ts: 2018-07-17T16:06:56.571Z, ro: false, sysMes: true, \_updatedAt: 2018-07-17T16:54:29.767Z, importIds: \['GBRTWAHQB' \], lm: 2018-07-17T16:54:29.733Z, meta: { revision: 1, created: 1531846229127, version: 0, updated: 1531846469770 }, '$loki': 130, usernames: \['NeuralMiner', 'rocketbot' \], username: 'NeuralMiner' } } > \[34mI20180717-16:56:09.317(0) \[34mIntegrations ➔ Outgoing WebHook.debug Starting search for triggers for the room: Z7tZQmR9ZicuZLa8Q > \[34mI20180717-16:56:09.318(0) \[34mIntegrations ➔ Outgoing WebHook.debug Found 0 to iterate over and see if the match the event. The only difference I could find is that the bridge doesn’t seem to trigger on private channels AFTER a restart.
