which version of psyBNC has ADDLOG enabled?

I'm using psyBNC2.3.2-7 and ADDLOG is disabled or something. When I type:

/ADDLOG #channel :*

I get this error message:

Code: Select all

• •   error: ADDLOG unknown command

I thought maybe the syntax is wrong so I typed

Code: Select all

 /bhelp ADDLOG

and I get this:

Code: Select all

(-psyBNC) Help for: ADDLOG
(-psyBNC) No Help found for: ADDLOG
(-psyBNC) BHELP - End of help

which means it's not on my version of psyBNC. Which version has it? I'm still a newbie to all of this (just figured out how to auto-identify myself and auto msg the chan bot to auto invite me to the channel).

Thanks!

From memory a large chunk of the files required to produce the help system are missing (from whatever version being used) or plain poor coding prevents the appropriate file from being loaded whenever a /bhelp <item> trigger is used.

I dare say /addlog exists but you'd probably need to to scour the psybnc folder.

Thanks for the reply. Would you say thought that my version of psyBNC has ADDLOG? I checked every single directory and can't find it...

Maybe they replaced /addlog with a new command?

You may need to check the psyBNC website documentation (for your version).

I suggest recompiling from source.

Did that - downloaded from another source, recompiled and configured everything, then tried to use the ADDLOG command and still got the same error message as in my first post.

Maybe psyBNC has removed it and only sBNC (or another version) has it?

i use version 2.3.2-7, and addlog works just fine for me, so maybe you are getting a corrupted tarball? Try downloading the tarball from here, and be extra careful when compiling it, might help.

I also use 2.3.2-7, and the addlog command is indeed in it.

Thanks guys for the confirmation about 2.3.2-7.

Again, I'm still new to all of this so please let me know if I'm doing something wrong compiling psyBNC:

* wget http://www.psybnc.at/download/beta/psyB ... 2-7.tar.gz
* tar zxvf psyBNC-2.3.2-7.tar.gz
* cd psybnc
* make menuconfig
* etc.

Am I doing the compiling procedure correctly?

yep. If you need any pointers about how to proceed, visit this psybnc guide or this one
