How to install DICT on freebsd?

rosc2112 · Posted: Mon Oct 08, 2007 4:57 pm Post subject:

Same way you install it on all the other platforms, by reading the documentation that comes along with it (there's a wiki about it.) Look back in this thread or look for the other thread which deals with Dict specifically. It's somewhere on this forum, try searching.

I did what the readme says, but the commands don't work. Can't find any info for freebsd.

"It doesn't work" isn't very useful debug info..

I am new to eggdrops and have a feeling this will be something obvious that I am missing, but would appreciate a prod in the right direction. I can get the tvrage.tcl script to load;

You need to enable the chanset command inside your eggdrop.conf, look for the lines with "unbind set" and "unbind chanset" and comment them out or change them to "bind set" and "bind chanset" then restart.

Many thanks rosc2112. That did the trick.

Hello everyone

i've been trying to get this script to work... and by now only half of it works Smile

I've tried several versions, and currently i'm with the latest from rosc2112.
After solving the common problems with dict, configuring and testing, i constantly get something like

<BotNick> No schedule is cached for Domingo, 21 Out 2007

* Domingo means Sunday btw

i've tried to run the updatecache command, and although i don't get any errors, .tv/!today never seem to get working.

.set errorInfo returns:

set errorInfo
Currently: can't read "state(after)": no such element in array
Currently: while executing
Currently: "after cancel $state(after)"

Any ideas what can i be doing wrong? Any more info i can provide?

Sorry for the delay in answering, we moved and I only got back online today..

The error you're seeing indicates the script is failing to connect to the website to retrieve the data. Perhaps you need a longer timeout setting?

@rosc2112

No problem whatsoever! Smile

Thank you for your reply, will try and see if the problem really is the timeouts.

I'll post back shortly.

*UPDATE*

To no avail... same error... increased timeout to 240.
Will try and debug...

I'm guessing from the info you posted before you are using the script to get data for a different country than USA? Let me know what you have in your config for default country (I'll see if I can reproduce the problem.) Also, try setting it to US for the default country and see if that works, just so we can narrow down the bug.

@rosc2112 :

The files are exactly has you posted them in your zip.
Didn't change 1 bit... apart from the timout value.

The problem still mantains...

rosc2112 · Posted: Mon Nov 19, 2007 12:38 pm Post subject:

If you haven't changed the config and you're using the latest version I posted, I'm completely stumped why it's not retrieving data for you. I just checked my version running on my bot and it works.

Just to make sure, you are using rosc ver 003?
