Incith Weather Script help

Post by achilles1900 »

Eggdrop v1.6.20
incith:weather v2.9a
shell santrex.net

Hi all,

i keep getting this:

<Achilles> !weather berlin, germany
<bot> Failed to connect.

I have the script running on another shell account and that works fine.

I think there are some missing stuff the shell account needs to load for the bot to work properly.

Can anyone tell me what it needs? files or whatever that needs to be installed/done, so i can email the shell account help and have them install it?

If there are any other solutions/workarounds or similar experiences please let me know.

thanks in advance and best regards,
Achilles 1900

'package require http 2.3'. Is this missing on the reluctant bot?

Hi all,

i have been going thru the second-level help on the shell provider trying to sort this out since Dec 18, to no avail :(.

Thanks Shadrach for the tip, which i think is the problem. I have another shell account and the script runs fine there.

Today i received this from the 2nd level technician :-
What you mean exactly by `httpd 2.3` - `Apache 2.3`?

Can someone please explain it to me so i can tell them what they need to do? Apparently they dont know what to install or how to do it so my bot can finally run the weather script.

thanks for all the help,
Achilles

'http 2.3' refers to a tcl script and is nothing to do with your webserver. Save the file from here, http://svn.python.org/projects/external ... p/http.tcl upload it to your bot's script directory and add this line to your bot's config:

source scripts/http.tcl

*Put the line at the top of your list of tcl scripts. Restart, not just rehash, your bot. Weather should work now. Hopefully.

Hi Shadrach,

thanks for the quick reply.
I did as you said but no joy :( . I think maybe there is something up with the shell, maybe they are blocking a port or something that the scrip needs to connect.
Will keep you informed on whats happening.
