Force eggdrop to look at a certain .conf

Post by MtM »

I have been messing with this thing for hours. I installed some FreeBSD 'Ports' version of eggdrop. It said that it uses all these custom paths for scripts, binarys, mods, etc... but my shell crashed, so I can't find those locations anymore.

I can type 'eggdrop' from anywhere, and it will try to start the eggdrop. I always get:


Eggdrop v1.6.15 (C) 1997 Robey Pointer (C) 2003 Eggheads
[16:12] --- Loading eggdrop v1.6.15 (Fri Aug 6 2004)
[16:12] * CONFIG FILE NOT LOADED (NOT FOUND, OR ERROR)

I can't figure out where it's looking for the config at! I've tired to force it by using './eggdrop -m eggdrop.conf' but it still won't work. I put the 'die' command in my config so I know if it finds it, it will say it was killed. But my error is it can't find it at all.

Anyone have any ideas?

provide an absolute path to the conf.
Have you ever read "The Manual"?
