Invite does not work when chan set to +i

Post by audial »

I got a bot in the chan and the chan is set to Invite-Only. With this mode, the bot will not invite anyone.

Example:

<audial> .invite audial #chan
<Invite> [19:42] #audial# (#chan) invite audial
<Invite> Inviting audial to #chan.
It says in the log it invites, but it doesnt...

<audial> .tcl putserv "INVITE audial #chan"
<Invite> [19:58] tcl: builtin dcc call: *dcc:tcl audial 8 putserv "INVITE audial #chan"
<Invite> [19:58] tcl: evaluate (.tcl): putserv "INVITE audial #chan"
<Invite> Tcl:
Again no invite...


So I make no changes to the bot whatsoever. I set the channel to -i. Then I try inviting again...

<audial> .tcl putserv "INVITE audial #chan"
<Invite> [19:59] tcl: builtin dcc call: *dcc:tcl audial 8 putserv "INVITE audial #chan"
<Invite> [19:59] tcl: evaluate (.tcl): putserv "INVITE audial #chan"
<Invite> Tcl:
* Invite (~Invite@invite.bot.net) invites you to join #pre
This last line is the invite...

<audial> .invite audial #chan
<Invite> [19:37] #audial# (#chan) invite audial
<Invite> Inviting audial to #chan.
* Invite (~Invite@invite.bot.net) invites you to join #chan
Works this way too...

I have a TCL script that behaves the same way. What is stopping the bot from inviting when the chan is +i??

INVITE should work in either case, regardless of +i or -i chanmode

what ircd type are you on?

PleXusIRCd-2.0 with Egg 1.6.17

I have just recompiled the bot, redid the .conf again and the same issue is there.... =/

never heard of it; could well be buggy

if you can, use only servers/networks which run well-known and established ircd software - hybrid/ratbox, ircu, irc2.10 (Unreal is bloated)

Well sonofabitch im embarrassed. I got it to work

FYI if you run across it again, the bot needs OPs to invite on +i...i had the bot halfop'd.

Thanks for your quick response desmond

does 1.6.17 work correctly if half-opped only? I mean, does it do all the stuff it would be doing if it had full ops? (inviting excluded hehe, it's obviously a questionable ircd limitation); a while ago I wanted to use 1.6.15 half-opped, and I ran into problems

Yes 1.6.17 works perfectly fine. Yea it is an IRCd issue not allowing halfops to invite on +i, just never occured to me someone would design the ircd that way.

Everything else with the egg works perfect from what I can tell. Thanks demond
