Ques5.tcl problem in wondrop!

Post by peerless »

When I try to start the ques5.tcl at my PC with windrop recieve that:
[12:22] <ParaServ> [12:22] Tcl error in script for 'timer1':
[12:22] <ParaServ> [12:22] couldn't execute "\bin\mv": no such file or directory

I was trying all that I know to run it correctly but... there isnt results!
Please tell me where is the problem & how to ignore it!
Thanks!
P.S.The windrop is started in my PC and I have a apache server... run (channel.html-teh results of the script) in my server... but...........
Thanks again!:)

This is due to the fact that the script in question is designed for a *nix based environment.

/bin/mv command is used to move files, but the windows environment does not have this file structure, or program.

You could try changing all occurances of "/bin/mv" to "move".

NOTE: You should do this at your own risk, and I will not be held responsible for any errors, or anything else that should result from it.

Eggdrop (specificaly that script) was never orriginaly designed for widnows, thus, it can be flaky at times.

Since MOVE is an internal command in command.com built into the op system..... there really is no way to call it that I can see from a TCL since it expects to find the actual program. The only way I can see you can go around it is to re-write some of the original tcl and create like a mov.bat file that will do basically what the script wants you to do...... then u can call that file to perform the function. I *could* be wrong.....wouldn't be the first time.. :wink:

you just call command.com with the /c switch. command /? for syntax

I got a problem with the same script but in eggdrop:
[20:40] Tcl error in script for 'timer5':
[20:40] wrong # args: should be "strftime format ?time?"

what is this?
