I can't run my eggdrop

When I tried to run my bot, I got this message:

(ircbrasil@Freedom)(~/eggdrop) ./eggdrop -m ircbrazil.conf
-bash: ./eggdrop: No such file or directory

The file is writting in lowercase and it's on the /eggdrop directory. I've already installed a couple of time, and It didn't work.

Any suggestion to fix this? What should I do?

uhm, compile it and make sure you run it from the correct dir ?

I've already done it by the typical way and through gcc compilation.

after compile did you do

Code: Select all

make install

the file is probably not set as an executable. "chmod +x eggdrop"

it never ceases to amaze me how many people wanting to run eggdrop know nothing or very little about the very basics of using Linux/UNIX through command line; or rather, how many more are these people, as a percentage, compared to users of other GNU/Linux/UNIX software

maybe there is actually some true in the old saying "IRC is lame" after all...
