Eggdrop will only connect in debug mode

qazwsx · Post by **qazwsx** » Thu Jun 25, 2009 12:24 am

The eggdrop connects to the server and enters the channel when I use -n for debug mode but when I run it normally it just says it's loaded and it doesn't connect I am not sure what is going on.

Open src/config.h in sources of your bot. After ./configure - open file config.h. Change next 2 lines:

Code: Select all

    /* Define for Tcl that has threads. */
    /* #undef HAVE_TCL_THREADS */

to this:

Code: Select all

    /* Define for Tcl that has threads. */
    #define HAVE_TCL_THREADS 1

Continue installing your bot with make config && make && make install.

I have the same problem. I set #define HAVE_TCL_THREADS 1 but the behavior is the same.

@atze:
Could you please provide information regarding version of eggdrop and libtcl.

eggdrop 1.6.19+ctcp patch
debian etch, using tcl8.5-dev.deb from lenny.

I missed that the in config.h it was commented as #undef i changed it to #define, now it seems to work.

i used before a source install of tcl8.5 and dont have to do this.
sorry i missed that part completely, but thx for your help

@atze:
Then you are (were) suffering from the known issue of threaded libtcl8.5 not properly being detected as threaded. I believe a fix is in the works, but for now the best approach is to manually edit config.h before the build-phase.
