CAN'T WRITE TO TEMP DIR?

Post by spacemud »

Hi.

I've uploaded the eggdrop files via FTP to my shell account, and have already followed the steps and I'm up to ./eggdrop -m <config file>. I then get this message and the bot doesn't connect to the irc server.

Code: Select all

Eggdrop v1.6.18 (C) 1997 Robey Pointer (C) 2006 Eggheads
[11:19] --- Loading eggdrop v1.6.18 (Fri Jun 29 2007)

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

[11:19] * CAN'T WRITE TO TEMP DIR
Any ideas?

# Set here a place to store temporary files.
set temp-path "/tmp"
If Windrop, create a temp folder within main windrop folder and set as below:

Code: Select all

set temp-path "tmp/"
