Tcl error in file - bad type

[sudobashnet]

I've been all over "the googles" and nothing has helped me find even a trace to start following so here goes:

I've added the following test to eggdrop.conf

Code: Select all

# Test alert message
bind pubm - alert pubm:alert
proc pubm:alert {nick host handle chan text} {
  putserv "PRIVMSG #systems :Alert! "
}

When I try and load the bot I get the following error:

[15:27:18] Tcl error in file 'eggdrop.conf':
[15:27:18] bad type, should be one of: act, away, bcst, bot, chat, chjn, chof, chon, chpt, cron, ctcp, ctcr, dcc, disc, evnt, filt, flud, link, load, log, msg, msgm, nkch, notc, note, raw, time, unld, wall
while executing
"bind pubm - alert pubm:alert"
(file "eggdrop.conf" line 826)
[15:27:18] * CONFIG FILE NOT LOADED (NOT FOUND, OR ERROR)

You havn't loaded the channels-module (yet), and thus the pubm binding is not available.

Additionally, that bind will never trigger because you're not using the correct mask for it to match anything. See tcl-commands.doc for 'bind pubm' and make sure you understand what <mask> is matched against.
