Eggdrop refuses to make/save userfile

[MemorX]

Hi,

I am new too Eggdrop, and am trying to run this on my Debian server. I have followed the guide on egghelp.org, but I cant get my Eggdrop to save the userfile.

In the config, this is the userfile settings:

set userfile "levelzero.user"
set userfile-perm 0600

This is what the shell says when i run ./eggdrop -m levelzero.conf.

Code: Select all

memorx@embla:~/botdir$ ./eggdrop -m levelzero.conf

STARTING BOT IN USERFILE CREATION MODE.
Telnet to the bot and enter 'NEW' as your nickname.
OR go to IRC and type:  /msg LevelZero hello
This will make the bot recognize you as the master.

[03:59] === LevelZero: 0 channels, 0 users.
* Warning! Could not write pid.LevelZero file!
Launched into the background  (pid: 920)

I then "register" with the bot, and all is well, but when I try to save the userfile using ".save" the bot answers:

<LevelZero> [03:03] ERROR writing user file.

And when I use ".die" and restart the bot with ./eggdrop levelzero.conf this is what happens:

Code: Select all

memorx@embla:~/botdir$ ./eggdrop levelzero.conf

I also tried the ./eggdrop -ntm levelzero.conf command, and it gave this result:

Does anyone know why my eggdrop refuses to create, write or save its userfile?

All help is apreciated.

Your Eggdrop is not being able to edit/create files, check the permissions on your shell/box. (A forum search is helpful as well)
