So I have an application that would run a discord bot in Heroku, however, the files do not execute. I note that a proc file must be created. I do know it is just proc and not proc.txt, I do know it must be on the git repo on the root for, I just don't know what magical contents go inside. Help?

As stated in Hosting a Discord.js bot for free using Heroku, if your app is based on Node.js, it looks like you need to put only one line of code there.

For Node:

worker: node name_of_bot_file.js

If your're using Python, the line is quite similar (more sophisticated answer available at Stack Overflow: How do I host my discord.py bot on heroku?):

worker: python name_of_bot_file.py

how to do that for Java? I can start my bot manually using: sh target/bin/frdiscordbot

my Procfile is: worker: sh target/bin/frdiscordbot

but I can't enable the dyno... the button is disabled and I can't enable it.

edit: to enable the button you need to click the pencil icon... very good site.
