first of all, sorry for the extremely noobish question.. i tried to search the forums before i poste this but the question is so vague and the archive is so big, i eventually gave up

the problem is, i have a bot running, sourced 2 tcl scripts in config that rely on http package.. and one that relies on nothing and spits random lines from within itself..
to provide http support, i took http.tl from the latest tcl package and sourced it in config.. though i think this is not the way it is done.. however, i know that other bots from the same shell were using http reliant scripts so even if i am doing that wrong i am sorted..

when i start the bot, everything is ok, i even get the loaded messages from each tcl via the putlog command.. so i know they are there.. yet, when i try out the public triggers, the bot does nothing..

even with the script that relies on no packages, the bot doesn't respond..

the script i am talking about is the murphyslaws100.tcl from the eggdrop tcl archive.. the script has 3 triggers (murf, murfhelp murphyslaws) and they are used from the pub, DCC or /msg.. in pub, none of them work.. in DCC and /msg, only murf (shows the script tagline) and murfhelp commands work.. the actual command (murphyslaw) which selects a random line from within itself doesn't work anywhere..

after the long and most probably boring read, do you have any idea what i am doing wrong here?

thx

Paste the results of ".set errorInfo".

From eggdrop.conf:

commented out those two lines
that enabled .set and .tcl
failed to get any results with .set errorInfo ic DCC chat though
the bot doesn't understand that command.. and it is not in the list when i do .help set

also doesn't understand when i do .help set errorInfo

You're expected to actually .restart your bot after that change.

.rehash
.restart
kill <pid> then ./eggdrop again

none of the above worked.. .set doesn't exist in DCC
any other ideas?

Change the "unbind" to "bind" then rehash the bot... As far as tcl's http, it's not a script in itself, it's part of newer versions of tcl, so if you're having probs with scripts that require package http, likely your version of tcl needs to be upgraded.

no idea whatsoever?
at least tell me a way to see an error log.. not the log of the partyline but the actual runnings inside the eggdrop process..

If you had done what was suggested then ".set errorInfo" (case sensitive) will return a result.

Maybe just recompiling from source will solve your problem.

treating people like they don't know anything about eggdrop won't help
what makes you think i did not try .set errorInfo (yes, case sensitive) ?
what makes you think i'm lazy and stupid enough to do the same thing over and over again and never try recompiling? never try .restart? .rehash?
forget it.. leave it unresolved..

that's what i'm trying to say.. the script is so simple it drives me nuts not to be able to get it working

i know i loaded the script.. putlog tells me that after a .rehash
in DCC, .murf works, but .murphylaws doesn't
now this happened to me before so it is most probably a mistake i am continuously making.. i need an error log that will tell me if eggdrop even acknowledged my trigger on the pub.. or why did the bot terminate a .murphyslaws command?

checked the single eggdrop.log in the LOGS dir... it has +o but only logs the partyline.. and i get a response to .help set but i got no response for the 6-7 .set <variable> commands i tried.. and i commented out unbind.. then turned back and made those bind and removed #
what the hell am i doing wrong?
