Yep, either you already got a process running, or it exited uncleanly leaving a "pidfile" behind...
Just do as the last line tells you to: Check if you already got a process running, otherwize remove the pidfile

Like you'd remove any file... using rm
I'd strongly suggest making sure there's no process currently running tho, and if so, killing it first...

Make sure you do not have a running process for the bot.
To find this out and to kill that process do the following on your shell:
The result will look something like this:
| Quote: | [chuckles@cristie ~/bots]$ ps x
PID TT STAT TIME COMMAND
73073 p0 SNs 0:00.02 -bash (bash)
95803 p0 SN 0:00.01 /home/chuckles/bots/eggdrop ./borg.conf (eggdrop-1.6.1
96087 p0 RN+ 0:00.00 ps x
[chuckles@cristie ~/bots]$ |
You will notice that I have highlighted the numbers on the left (in the above example) on the line containing information re eggdrop, that is the PID that needs to be killed if the eggdrop process is running.
You then issue the command to kill that process using the number given on your shell when you are given the PID for your running process.
Having done that look for a file named 'pid.<botnick>' using "ls" and then delete:
Unix/Linux is case sensitive so make sure you type everything correctly.

Then do the following and watch all of the output, it will show what is wrong:
| Code: | | ./eggdrop -n eggdrop.conf |
I also gave you a link in an earlier post on setting up egddrop, I suggest you follow the guide.
