Tcl error [sl_ctcp]

[Alchera]

Hi,

I just jumped a bot to another DALnet server and got the following message whilst in DCC....

[12:41] <Natale> [10:41] Tcl error [sl_ctcp]: expected boolean value but got "5:30"
[12:41] <Natale> [10:41] CTCP VERSION: from acoolScan (VerScan@DALnet)

Edited:

The above error was generated by the sentinel.tcl component of netbots

Probably an error in your settings. First find out if some smarty pants tried a ".set sl_ccflood 5:30" or the like, which will mess things up because the script won't get a chance to process the setting.

If you can rule that one out, paste the sentinel.tcl settings section from your netset.tcl and we'll see if the error stems from there.

set sl_bfnotice "Channel locked temporarily due to full ban list, sorry for any inconvenience this may cause "
set sl_lockcmds 2
set sl_lockflags "o"
set sl_bxsimul 1

Hope this helps

It would appear to rule out the settings as the cause and bounce us back to the other possibility I suggested

Can you reproduce the error at will or does it only occur with some CTCPs?

Hi,

I am the only person with dcc access to any bot on the botnet and I didn't pop in any uneeded setting (well, I hope not). I only jump bots individually via DCC if DALnet is playing up otherwise I simply jump them all via your netbots script.

It's interesting that it coincided with the version scan from acoolScan (VerScan@DALnet), which is new to DALnet. They have never had bots versioning anyone that I am aware of until now.

I have jumped the same bot twice onto the same server without any error and apparently no version scanning. Weird! LOL

[Sir_Fz]

well this scan is only on the acool server, and I think its temporarly.

[Alchera]

That scan sort of got me by surprise although I have 4 bots on PhaZeNet where there has always been version scanning and there's no apparent error being generated because of it on those bots.
