Problem launching eggdrop after configuration

[ganjam0n]

Hello, sorry if i come off as bit of a eggi noob, i configured my eggdrop as to the egghelp.orgs suggestions and guide on a precompiled eggdrop on my shell server, upon launching im receiving the following error, can anyone help elaborate?.

-(~/eggi)-> ./eggdrop -m eggi.conf

I have found that even if i comment out the tcl scripts at the end of the eggi.conf (eggdrop.conf) it does not start, when i look in ps -x theres no proccess loaded.

What does it show when you comment out the alltools script and start it?

[DragnLord]

Using the -nt switches may give you more information on why it is not working.

[ganjam0n]

using -nt does not give me any more information hmm.


-(~/eggi)-> ./eggdrop -nt eggi.conf

Only one that does anything different is -n on its own but still does not elaborate on the problem.

If i comment out the alltools.tcl then the next tcl fails like so...


[10:49] Tcl error in file 'eggi.conf':
[10:49] invalid command name "}"
while executing
"}"
(file "scripts/action.fix.tcl" line 25)
invoked from within
"source scripts/action.fix.tcl"
(file "eggi.conf" line 1351)


if i comment out all the tcls at the end, it does actually work fine funny enough, and i found compat.tcl works too, non working tcls are alltools.tcl and action.fix.tcl.

does this help you?.

[nml375]

That would suggest those files have been damaged somehow. That, along with the fact that you're running an antique version of eggdrop makes me wonder where you downloaded it from.

[DragnLord]

I also recommend that you get 1.6.19 source and compile your own.
Or, get the source for 1.6.13 yourself and upload the scripts to your shell using binary transfer (not ascii).

[ganjam0n]

thanks for your replys i`ll take your advice and do that, reason why the antique version was because of my free shells precompiled eggdrop, im not sure if they will allow me to compile my own one but i shall give it a shot.

appreciate your response
