Are you sure this is a valid eggdrop config file?

My config looks this one

Just curious - what directory are you running autobotchk in?
Some time ago, I found that to get it to work, that I had to copy autobotchk from the scripts dir, up one dir, to the bot's main dir - and run it there.
Give it a try.
I hope this helps. |

well autobotchk is in scripts folder. the problem is not that it will not work. the problem is that the chan ans userfiles are not in the root Folder of the bot, they are in a new Folder, calles system. So its a bit better sorted.
If i move the autobotchk into the root folder of my eggdrop and use the command line i posted before.....
*** ERROR: could not find either $userfile or $botnet-nick
I think the problem is the system folder....
edit: from what i can see (im no tcl Coder) i have to rewrite the autobotchk to point it to the correct folder. in my case /system/
but i have no clue what to write.... |

All autobotchk does, is create a botchk file for you, and create the entry to run it in crontab.
Thus, at this point, I'm thinking that it might be easier for you to NOT use autobotchk at all, and just create your own botchk file, and crontab entry.
That way, you can manually enter the paths and filenames yourself, in the new botchk file that you create.
Have a look in your scripts dir, for
botchk
and make a copy of it, to work with, keeping the original as-is, for reference.
The file is well commented with instructions.
Also, there are some brief instructions on editing the botchk file here:

Why anyone would use such an ancient config is beyond me. Use the .conf that COMES with eggdrop. Don't use some simplifier, or some .conf generator as they are all incomplete, lacking, redundant, insert other synonym here. Read each #comment and do what they say, implicitly. This isn't rocket science, if you make a mistake you don't risk catastrophic explosions or fires. The biggest risk is you crash your eggdrop, big whoop.
