Posted: Thu Jun 21, 2007 9:26 pm Post subject: No response from my windrop |
|
|
Hey guys.
I got a little problem running my Windrop. I am running it on a local area network in my house and I decided to set it up on a machine I have, and keep that on forever, so I went through all of it, and everything seems fine but when I go to IRC, my bot won't respond(No such nick/channel). all the modules load and everything seems fine but I get one weird message in the start file which is :
[19:30] Identd: I don't know why you're using winident.tcl on your system, but it probably won't work on anything but Windows.
[19:30] winident.tcl v1.2 by FireEgl@EFnet <fireEgl@windrop.cbj.net> - Loaded.
Anyone? Thanks.
Truce. |

That is simply an information message and does nothing to stop Windrop from running.
From the Command Prompt type:
| Code: | | eggdrop -n bot.conf |
The above will enable you to see all that is happening when you run your bot and figure out what is wrong. CTRL + C will terminate. _________________ Add [SOLVED] to the thread title if your issue has been.

Then you should have read the documentation correctly and paid attention to (and read) what was actually sent to the command console about creating a user file (just before the line that says "not launched").
| Code: | | eggdrop -m bot.conf |

As windows has no crontab; please explain what that has to do with actually creating a user file (pretty basic stuff) at all? _________________ Add [SOLVED] to the thread title if your issue has been.

| I really don't know, I did the whole -m command, and it said it launched, but then I did -n and nothing happened. |

You need to kill the windrop (in Task Manager) and then re-open the Command Console and type:
| Code: | | eggdrop -n bot.conf |
To see what is happening if it has not connected.
You are also required to pay attention to what is sent to the Command Console at all times; the successful launch also indicated what you do once windrop connects to an IRC Network. _________________ Add [SOLVED] to the thread title if your issue has been.

| The only error I get is the one regarding the userfile even when I kill it and have created it previously. After it has connected it tells me to message my bot but I get "No such nick\channel" every time. Everything works when I make the -m command(Well, in the launch screen, the bot doesnt show up) |

Might be useful to combine -n and -m, as it would seem your bot is unable to connect to your irc-server for some reason. Might also considder replacing -n with -nt to gain partyline access from your console.
Ie: | Code: | | eggdrop -n -m bot.conf |

The user is on DALnet and contacted me there; a combination of not reading eggdrop.conf, output from the Command Console and a missing DMZ setting in his router.
PS: He did use the "eggdrop -n -m bot.conf" combo. _________________ Add [SOLVED] to the thread title if your issue has been.
