Hello,

On the shell the bot automatically create a new file on which the channel it is on (currently 3). example: eggdrop.#chan1 eggdrop.#chan2 eggdrop.#chan3

My problem is that on the DCC chat it says "too many open files.. cannot write user file". Is there any settings on the config which makes it do that create a new file and how will i turn it off. I was playing around with the use-info settings for greeting user when they join channel. But now i turned that off and delete the eggdrop.#chan1 etc. file manually. After that i restart the bot and still it create a new file on the channel which it is on.

This is really annoying me, please advise.

Are you using some custom scripts? This kind of error is generally caused by scripts leaking file descriptors (opening files for reading and/or writing, but failing to close them later on).

A classic example of this:

Thank you for the reply, after looking at the tcl loaded, the error comes from OTBN.tcl 2.3 by Overtech Technologies and the error it gives was on onjoin_out function. But i have no idea how to fixed it.
