Cant get quote script to work :( (Windrop)

[danjuls]

ive downloaded sqlquote_release and put it in the windrop/scripts dir. I then downloaded fbsql.dll and libmysql.dll and put them in root dir of windrop.

Ive added the line load fbsql.dll to the script and
added the line source scripts/sqlquote_release.tcl to my eggdrop.conf. when i start the bot i get an error message

Code: Select all

"couldn´t load fbsql.dll: this library or a dependent library could not be found in library path.
wile executing
"load fbsql.dll"
<file "scripts/sqlquote_release.tcl line 21>
invoked from within
"source scripts/sqlquote_release.tcl"
<file "eggdrop.conf" line 1309>

What am i doing wrong?

i know its a lot o text i wrote but can someone plz help me?

Thanks

looks like it wont work with the tcl library. Not much you can do. Must be an old script

[danjuls]

ok thanks for the fast reply

I DID manage to get a mysql-implementation going on a windrop some time ago, tried yesterday, but didn't make it

I'll dive into it today, but i suspect the version of TCL to be at fault.

What version are you runnung, danjuls?

I think, FastBase only supports or runs with version 8.3 of TCL, meaning you'd have to use and older version of WinDrop!

[caesar]

You can try also to get the latest version of Windrop and see if you get the same error..

[Weirdo]

doesnt work on windrop 1.6.12, works on 1.6.11 tho, but no one wants to have that version

[danjuls]

Im using the Windrop 1.6.12 the latest i suppose...guess ill have to try to run an older version and see if it makes any differens....

Just hope someone someday will make one that works with newer TCL versions

[Weirdo]

try 1.6.10, that uses the older tcl lib iirc

And you could make it your project to update the code to the new standards. Use an old TCL reference and compaire it to the new ones. You resubmit it, and you know you made a difference

I am actually looking for a working quote script for my other windrop

This is infact path conversion bug.

I don't think the load command looks in the current directory, only directories specified, or in the seach path (usualy the Tcl directory (not the scripts directory)).

If you have the DDL in the same dir as eggdrop, using ./ before the DLL filename should sure this.

[danjuls]

damn ill try with my limited programing skillz
Regarding quote script i found another on that works without mysql.

Quote Script by Steinsky. Version: 1.2.1 is the name and it works with a .txt file instead. but i refuse to not getting mysql connection to work, and ill try find a way to make it work

[danjuls]

noo that didnt help either ;(

it complains the same thing again....only now it changed it to ./fbsql.dll instead of only fbsql.dll.

Here is the tcl script im trying to make work http://www.ruptbot.com/download.php?sid=9
Can anyone look at it and tell me if i missed something?
I changed the line

Code: Select all

load /home/httpd/fbsql.so

to

Code: Select all

 load fbsql.dll 

Should i move fbsql.dll to somewhere else than my root dir of windrop?

[ppslim]

After reading into this a little more, it seems it may be due to the fact, it either can't find the Tcl DLL, or it's lot locating libmysql.dll

[danjuls]

oki i have had both files in the sam place all the time....do i need to load that libmysql.dll in some way to or do i just have to give up or get me an old version of the bot?

[stdragon]

Try putting it in c:\windows or c:\winnt or whatever you have. Also the system and system32 subdirs.

[danjuls]

OK i think i made it or i didnt do much just downloaded the fbsql.dll.utf and used that instead...

Now i got a connection to my mysql database and will post here if i made it all the way
