package require tdom

Hi, I succesfull installed an eggdrop-bot on an ubuntu server.

I'm trying to install a tcl-script, but it gives me the error:

Code: Select all

[08:26:46] can't find package tdom
    while executing
"package require tdom"
    (file "scripts/omertaPrices.tcl" line 42)
    invoked from within
"source scripts/omertaPrices.tcl"
    (file "eggdrop.conf" line 1422)

I installed tdom package (as root) :

Code: Select all

apt-get install tdom
make 
make install
make tcldomsh
make install

Now I got the same error, did I do something wrong?

Thanks for the advice!

nobody?

As a regular user (not as root, and hopefully you haven't installed the eggdrop as one) get on the shell and enter tclsh then run package require tdom and see if that works. if it doesn't then the library didn't install correctly or it's library path isn't known/recognized.

have you tried to install the library with apt-get install tdom (or with aptitude)?

when I run tclsh as a regular user, I get: command not found

when i run that command with root: I get : 0.8.3

I installed tdom library with apt-get install tdom (as root)

How can I give my regular user access to that command and library?
P.s.: eggdrop is installed as regular user

I find that very interesting that command not found on a tclsh command, not to mention the reply when you do it as root.

What linux distribution are you using?

I'm using ubuntu (on a vhost).

Just for fun:

There is some command to list what you have installed. (I can't remember it/them, I'd have to google it).
Find out what version(s) of TCL are actually installed. Perhaps one is found by one kind of user, and another is not.

And once you know the version(s) numbers, try:
tclsh8.5
or tclsh_8.5
something like that, that corresponds.
I've had shells where tclsh returned 'command not found', but tclsh8.5 brought it right up.

Perhaps some of this will gain you some more clues as to what is going on.

You meant dpkg -l tcl* ?

That certainly looks familiar.

dpkg -l tcl* (as root) gives me:

I think there might be a permissions problem on my system, because all the commands I do as default user gives me: command not found.

I'm not a linux-goeroe, so I'm not sure...

I see the tclsh on the list, so I don't get it why isn't working. Is this your server or a shell your purchased an account on?

In terminal type: lsb_release -a

its a VPS I rent.

I installed a webserver and host a few small websites on it.

In my controll-panel (ispconfig) I created a user with ssh-permissions and thats the one I use for my eggdrop.

You got some misconfiguration or some other glitch I can't put my finger on, so contact support about this issue cos you paid for this service, no?

falco · Post by **falco** » Wed May 15, 2013 2:49 pm

I pay for the VPS yes, but I need it for my websites, so thats not a problem.

Thanks for the input, I will try to figure things out and I will join the IRC-channel if I need further assistance.

Thanks!

Do you use a local Tcl installation? Then installing stuff is not that easy.
