mysqlnews1.0 + Windrop

[bleh1234]

I have installed SQL server on WindowsXP system.
Downloaded en configured libMySQLTCL (http://www.xdobry.de/mysqltcl)
* files placed in c:\eggdrop\lib\mysqltcl\
Downloaded en configured mysqlnews1.0 from script archive
* files placed in c:\eggdrop\scripts\mysqlnews\

But there is 1 thing i'm not sure about what to fill in mysqlnews.1.0.tcl
Problem is in RED

# MySQL hostname
set db(host) "localhost"

# MySQL user
set db(id) "USER"

# MySQL password
set db(pass) "PASS"

# MySQL database
set db(dbase) "DATABASE"

# load the mysqltcl interface
load PATH/TO/libmysqltcl.so

I have placed in eggdrop.conf the following statements

Code: Select all

#needed for libMySQLTCL
loadmodule mysqltcl 

#.tcl from libMySQLTCL
source lib/mysqltcl/pkgIndex.tcl
(dunno if this is correct?)

source script /scripts/mysqlnews/mysqlnews.1.0.tcl

Before i rehash bot i would like to know if it's correct because i'm sure when i load it now it will crash!

Detect where the libmysqltcl.so file exists and replace 'path/to/libmysqltcl.so' with its full path (as it says). And the following line will cause an error:

source script /scripts/mysqlnews/mysqlnews.1.0.tcl

Instead, use:

Code: Select all

source scripts/mysqlnews/mysqlnews.1.0.tcl

(Assuming mysqlnews.1.0.tcl is in c:\eggdrop\scripts\mysqlnews\)

Thx for quick reply but libmysqltcl.xso isn't on system, i'm using WinXp maybe it's a unix file?

I tryed to replace .so with the dll found in libMySQLTCL package but that only gave error's same as other files

Code: Select all

No solution for this problem?

Or is it because i use windrop instead of eggdrop?

Maybe some here has a better solution for e news system script working on windrop?

Using absolute paths with wineggs is quite often troublesome (as it uses parts of teh cygwin environment to simulate an *nix environment. Unfortunately, this means drive-letters cause some problems).

I'd try "load lib/mysqltcl/libmysqltcl.dll" instead. Also, you really don't have to run the pkgIndex.tcl, as this only creates a function used for the "package"-mechanism in tcl.

using absolute paths is't working

Could you verify that both "libmysqltcl.dll" and "libmySQL.dll" resides within lib/mysqltcl/ directory?
You could alsy try adding this to the code prior the load-command:

Code: Select all

lappend tcl_libPath [file join [pwd] "lib" "mysqltcl"]
