make eggdrop is not correct, please refer to Setting Up Your Eggdrop for exact directions

If compiling a Windrop (using cygwin) then "make eggdrop" is correct.

yeah I finaly used an already compiled windrop. But I dropped the project because it wouldn't run any scripts.

You gave up that easy?? It's not even hard to add a script in to the script folder, read header, put the script name in eggdrop.conf and restart.

if he already has cygwin set up there should be no script for eggdrop that doesnt run on windows (unless its a sys stats script or similar).

yeah I did all that. when I start the windrop it says ssome scripts require http2.4 when its 2.5 that I have... some stuff like that.

Got the same error like the thread starter and i don`t want to give up so fast. Used this page for instructions http://windrop.sourceforge.net/compile16.html

I guess i am not alone with this bug:
http://www.eggheads.org/pipermail/bugs/ ... 00902.html

Do someone know where the answer to this report can be found?

use the compiled version...

This is not a solution for my problem. I want to compile it myself this shouln`t be impossible. The forums purpose is to help each other and to solve problems, isn`t it.

As near as I can tell it may be the new release of cygwin that is the culprit. The instructions you have followed are indeed correct.

Note also that I am quite certain I have seen the error (BarkerJr) posted (recently) by a Debian user.

I have never had problems compiling Windrop with version Cygwin DLL 1.5.12.

Ok, i want to try Cygwin DLL 1.5.12.

I just need to install 'Latest Cygwin DLL release version is 1.5.19-4' from http://cygwin.com/ and exchange the dll to your version?

Or do i need to install the hole old version?

Where can i get the old version. I found only the new version more then enugh times.

I'd have to search my DVD's/CD's; I may have a copy of the original. I wouldn't hold my breathe ... De Kus could still have that older installer.

I believe the problem is that you installed Tcl. It's critical that you follow the instructions to the word. Don't ask me why, but the current versions of Cygwin aren't easy use with Eggdrop as they were last year.

http://windrop.sourceforge.net/compile16.html

You do have to install Make, too.

Normally i don`t act like i was born yesterday. Maybe stupid question:

Download and install Cygwin, with the default base packages and the following additional packages:
-autoconf
-automake
-binutils
-GCC

I download the cygwin setup exe and start it. I click
unlock 'Hide obsolte and administative packages'
All --> install
lock 'Install thease packages to meet dependencies (RECOMMENDED)
-->
As long i know this will install all packages; about 1GB but i have a big harddisk and don`t really care much about; the wanted packages should be included then?

'Make sure the default Tcl version include with Cygwin isn't installed.'
Yes, I have
actice tcl 8.4.12.0 and
tcl dev kit 3.2
installed.
-->
System controll --> software --> uninstall --> i remove it there and delete the tcl dir from my harddisk? = uninstalled?
Or is it enugh if i have tcl not started since last reboot? I thoght standard tcl won`t load start any dll`s as long it`s not started.
