[prassel]

my script:

Code: Select all

proc lion_run {nick host hand chan text} 
{
 putserv "privmsg $chan :run!"
}

eggdrop.conf:

i log on to my shell using putty
after 'cd eggdrop' i do:

Code: Select all

./eggdrop eggdrop.conf

and get a little message:

Code: Select all

You have to do EXACTLY as it told you in order to successfully run it.

ok, i got my egg to my channel and the scripts are loading.
but still it wont even greet me with the greet script i dled from the archive :/

i've tried rehashing and reloading the config file but no luck

someone got a clue what im doing wrong?

Check the .binds command from inside the dcc console and see if your script is really being loaded.. Most people put "putlog "Scriptname LOADED" or something at the end of the scripts so they can tell they did get loaded.. Next step would also be reading the various faqs and helpfiles around the forum about how to debug things.

the script got putlog at the end and i can see it in putty when i load eggbot.conf

heres what i got from .bind

Code: Select all

12:46:16 ‹kiwibot› join -|- * 1 holm-join_greet
12:46:16 ‹kiwibot› pub -|- bufu? 0 bufu
12:46:16 ‹kiwibot› pub -|- lion 0 run

[Sir_Fz]

If you write lion on your channel then your bot will respond with run!. As for your greet script, we can't help you since we can't see its source-code.

problem is that is doesnt reply at all.....

thank u all for pointing me in the right direction
