I'm working on a rather old script for compressing logs called logzipper.tcl

Right off the top, there is a line that has:

I should have mentioned I'm using eggdrop 1.6.17.

you are incorrect, there is nothing wrong with that expression

this will work too, it's equivalent to yours:

It's most likely you try to use a global var within a proc/namespace. In that case ::logfile-suffix should solve the issue.

Here's a couple of test scripts I made:

If you stated your problem clearly from the 1st post then you would've solved your problem way back in this topic. Your problem is in using a variable with a '-' in it. It's simple, see this example code:

the issue is something else:

set var $var-var
--> reads from 'var-var'
set var "$var-var"
--> reads from 'var' and adds '-var' as string

Either add it to global or use ${::logfile-suffix}.

Hi rosc2112

I have a question about ur updated logzipper.tcl for 1.6.17. I used ur version of this script. It s zippin the file, but it doent send it coz it looks for wrong file.

I edited the script to make these settings :

set lz(logloc) "logs/quizz/culture/"
set lz(duration) 1
set lz(sendlogs) 1
set lz_recipient(1) "zircon@gmail.com culture"

and in the config file i have these :

logfile jpk #culture "logs/quizz/culture/culture"
set keep-all-logs 1
set logfile-suffix ".%Y%b%d.log"

When i make the test manually with messaging the bot with logzip, i get these messages in the party line

LogZipper: An error occured while trying to uuencode or mail culture.2007Feb04.Feb-04-2007.bz2

LogZipper: zipped 1 logs, deleted 0 expired logs. Sent 0 logs via email.

So the script made the zip of culture.2007Feb04.log to culture.2007Feb04.log.bz2 as it should be, but couldnt sent it in a mail, cause it was trying to send the file culture.2007Feb04.Feb-04-2007.bz2, which doesnt exist.

Please, do u have some idea to solve this problem, to make the script send the right file ?

Thanks in advance Smile

PSssttt : by the way, what to do to make the script leave the input file there ( the unzipped file ), and not delete it ?

I dont use the mail feature, sorry. Try adding debug "putcmdlog" stuff in the script to get the real error messages that came from your shell, apparently there is a problem with mail on your shell, not the script.

Hello rosc2112

Thanks for replying. I think that the mail feature is working, coz i receive a mail, but empty, no file attached too.

The problem is that the script is trying to send the file culture.2007Feb04.Feb-04-2007.bz2 which doesnt exist. The right file to send is culture.2007Feb04.log.bz2.

My problem is that when the script want to send the file, it adds "Feb-04-2007" at the end in the name of the right file.

Thanks
