## Troubleshooting

### Bot doesn't respond to commands
- Make sure MESSAGE CONTENT INTENT is enabled in the Discord Developer Portal
- Check that the bot has the correct permissions in the server

### PDF parsing fails
- Ensure the PDF is text-based (not scanned images)
- Check the PDF file is not corrupted
- Verify pdfplumber is installed correctly

### Database errors
- Delete the `grocery_receipts.db` file to reset the database
- The database will be recreated automatically on next run

### Bot can't connect to Discord
- Verify your bot token is correct
- Check your internet connection
- Ensure the bot has been added to your server with correct permissions

## Expected Output

When a PDF receipt is successfully processed, you should see:
- A confirmation message in Discord: "Receipt 'filename.pdf' processed! Found X items."
- A new entry in the `receipts/` folder
- New entries in the database (visible via `!receipts` command)

## Next Steps

Once the basic functionality is working:
- Try uploading different receipt formats
- Test with various store names and product combinations
- Experiment with the price comparison features
