Bot never connects to server or creates a user file... can someone help me here? I have checked with network admins and the eggdrop wasent banned, it simply never connected.

Here are my server settings

And don't forget to see the .log file from your eggdrop...

Code: Select all

logfile mco * "eggdrop.log"
Don't forget to read eggdrop.conf for the option .log coz it very help you to analyze what happen to your bot later :wink:

It only works with ./eggdrop -ntm int.conf, the other way wont work... ./eggdrop -m int.conf or ./eggdrop m int.conf seems busted ;(

I'd concur with nml

ask your admin to provide you with a non-threaded version of the Tcl library; or compile one yourself, using --disable-threads switch of Tcl's configure script
connection, sharing, dcc problems? click <here>
before asking for scripting help, read <this>
use

I have the same problem as mentioned above.

I tryied to compile the Tcl library using --disable-threads, but still I get the same error, it only works with ./eggdrop -ntm file.conf.

Add the following to the conf:
checkmodule blowfish

Eggdrop requires an encryption module to be loaded, read the documentation.
The only way, I know of, to get around this is to edit the source before compiling.

i forgot to remove the # before the line

# Specify here the filename Eggdrop will save its pid to. If no pidfile is
# specified, pid.(botnet-nick) will be used.
set pidfile "pid._M_"

You shouldn't use a pipe (the | character) in any filename.
