so no one has a clue ?

[caesar]

The error is straight forward, and you don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure out what it's wrong in this line:

Code: Select all

set alice_url $alice_url

Replace the $alice_url with something that actually exists (if it's a variable) or with some actual url.

I did mate, here is the part of my alice.tcl

## Which server should I use for the alice engine?
# 0 = www.alicebot.org (Alice)
# 1 = www.agentruby.com (Ruby)
# 2 = www.tfxsoft.com (A Program-E Server)
# 3 = jaczone.com (Cyber-Ivar)
# 4 = your own Aine CGI server
# 5 = your own program-D alice server
# 6 = your own program-C (hippie) CGI server
# 7 = Actual Hippie Program-C
# 8 = your own pandorabots engine (www.pandorabots.com)
# 9 = A runabot.com AOL Instant Messenger bot (www.runabot.com)
set alice_engine -8

# If using your own alice server (Aine CGI, program-D, program-C CGI, pandorabots, runabot) enter the url here:
http://www.pandorabots.com/pandora/talk ... 24ee346d4f
# or if you notice one of the pre-programmed engines url's have changed, you may enter it here and see
# if it might help.

[GouroB]

it still shows that error

[caesar]

try with:

Code: Select all

set alice_url "http://www.pandorabots.com/pandora/talk?botid=9b3e4e24ee346d4f"

i checked that url and says "No published bot with id=9b3e4e24ee346d4f." so better check this out too.

[GouroB]

[GouroB]

## Which server should I use for the alice engine?
# 0 = www.alicebot.org (Alice)
# 1 = www.agentruby.com (Ruby)
# 2 = www.tfxsoft.com (A Program-E Server)
# 3 = jaczone.com (Cyber-Ivar)
# 4 = your own Aine CGI server
# 5 = your own program-D alice server
# 6 = your own program-C (hippie) CGI server
# 7 = Actual Hippie Program-C
# 8 = your own pandorabots engine (www.pandorabots.com)
# 9 = A runabot.com AOL Instant Messenger bot (www.runabot.com)
set alice_engine -8
set alice_url "http://www.pandorabots.com/pandora/talk ... 24ee346d4f"

# If using your own alice server (Aine CGI, program-D, program-C CGI, pandorabots, runabot) enter the url here:
# or if you notice one of the pre-programmed engines url's have changed, you may enter it here and see
# if it might help.

[caesar]

Try with:

Code: Select all

set alice_engine 8

What TCL version do you have?

[GouroB]

this one lets the bot run now but its still not responding :/ no error is showing at all

[GouroB]

any advice mate ?

[willyw]

I have looked at the way your pandorabot page appears and reacts, compared to the one I use.

Mine is different.

Then I remembered fiddling with this same problem, with somebody else, some time ago.


Something for you to try:


First, go here:
http://www.pandorabots.com/pandora/pics/pubhtml.html
and read.
Especially "Tracking Conversations" and the following "Full Example".

Next, log into your account here:
http://www.pandorabots.com/botmaster/en/home
and click on the "My Pandorabots" button.
See the direction, "To configure a pandorabot, click on its name in the table below."
Do that.

See button "Custom HTML".
Click it.

Create a custom html file. I use the text found in the earlier mentioned "Full Example".

Vaguely, I seem to remember that it didn't like it when I simply copy-n-pasted it. Not sure. But if it doesn't work the first time you do it, try again. If you have to, do it by hand, character by character.

Save it.

Go back to your pandora bot's page and test it.
http://www.pandorabots.com/pandora/talk ... 24ee346d4f
It should look different now.

Before you made these changes, it looked like this:

Code: Select all

Human: test
Shundori: I have no answer for that.

Human: blah
Shundori: I have no answer for that.

Human: test
Shundori: I have no answer for that. 

Afterwards:

Code: Select all

Welcome to my bot
Hi there!
say: Hello

and will not show all lines. Will show only the last entry.


Please answer caesar's question, too.


I hope this helps.
