HI all having a problem setting up a tcl I get this error in the bot--> couldn't open "/home/geetob/data/tcdevents.txt": no such file or directory
so my question is how do I create this file on my shell account?, Thanks in advance

[glynn2105]

make a location for the tcdevents.txt

it wont open
home/geetob/data/tcdevents.txt
because it hasnt been created. you have to make that text file and place it in the geetob/data folder

[kato]

ok so then it should be like this
eggdrop1.6.17
home
geetob
data
tcdevents.txt

I still get the same error evne after rehash and a .die and restart

Thanks again in advance to respones

The following command at your shell prompt should create the file in "proper" place:

[kato]

ok I type that and now have a data folder with the file in it but still ge this--> Tcl error [tcdmsg_date]: couldn't open "/home/geetob/data/tcdevents.txt": no such file or directory

I did a rehash and a die and started the bot again but no luck, any idea would be greatly appricated thanks

You're not obliged to use this specific path (unless the script you're using does not have a setting to change it). You can simply place "tcdevents.txt" in your preferred location and set the path accordingly.
