First the symbolic path for eggdrop was linked to itself. Then I changed it to the path from where I installed the eggdrop.
(Install destination: /eggdrop - installed from: /eggdrop-1.6.15 )
However both doesn't work. Following error is produced:
[storm@securehost eggdrop]$ ./eggdrop -m bot.conf
bash: ./eggdrop: is a directory
or(when I delete the link):
[storm@securehost eggdrop]$ ./eggdrop -m bot.conf
bash: ./eggdrop: No such file or directory
Do I have to start it from the path from where I installed it? What's the sense of /eggdrop (Destination path) then?
Thanks a lot.

Strange problem when starting the bot (symbolic path)
I don't understand: when you install your eggdrop from ~/eggdrop-1.6.15 , it create a real (not symbolic path) directory which is ~/eggdrop .
If you have a symbolic path, so you go to the sources and not to the binaries.
try to uninstall completely the eggdrop, then follow the procedure:
