Make sure you have the correct permissions to write to your shell.

Try creating the userfile yourself.

Code: Select all

pico userfilename.user
Save the file and try your bot again.

Make sure that your usefile name doesn't contain special chars like are | \ / etc because it won't work then (at leats it didn't work here).

any valid unix file name should be useable, just dont forget to escape characters reservered for tcl operations :).
