Trying to upgrade to 1.6.16

Post by DrTongue »

Tried to upgrade from 1.6.15 to 1.6.16, Used the 'quick method' as described here on slennox's site. I get through the initial tar command, then the cd eggdrop command, then the ./configure, then I get the prompt for the 'make config' command and after entering that I get "permission denied" in response. I have used this method to upgrade before with no problems. Is this a shell issue?

Thank you.

Was looking through previous posts and someone had this same issue and someone commented that login off the shell and re-login in solved this problem for him. I tried that and it did not work. I still get

"make: Permission denied"
