Eggdrops with internal links. Bombing out.

squeege · Post by **squeege** » Fri Jan 13, 2012 11:20 am

Hi,

I dont know if you can help me

I am running a Ubuntu server locally and i want to migrate all of my eggdrops to it from outside hosts.
The trouble is most need to be linked. Which is proceeded with the hub eggdrop bombing out.

*** stack smashing detected ***: ./eggdrop terminated
======= Backtrace: =========
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6(__fortify_fail+0x37)[0x7f20e44ff7f7]
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6(__fortify_fail+0x0)[0x7f20e44ff7c0]

A small sample there.
I have 4 bots up and running at that moment and there working fine. But the minute I try to link them i get the above error.

I know its because they are running on one local ip. Ive tried assigning different ports.

I am running eggdrop1.6.18 at the moment. Is it remedied in the latest version?

Is there a way I can fix this?

Thanks

Louis

Hi,
The latest version is 1.6.21. Did you compile your eggdrop yourself, or just apt-get install'd it?

I grabbed a prepatched version with SSL from my current shell provider.
But I compiled it myself

So will the latest version fix this? I dont wanna feel like ive wasted out money buying the server

Well, 1.6.18 was released back in 2006, so there's been a few changes since then. There's been a large 64bit fix since then, I don't recall if that fixed this issue though..
That said, some of the SSL- and IPv6-patches are really poor, and causes instabilities of their own..

Mmmm the ssl patched 1.6.18 has been fine for the past 4 years on my shell provider. I need eggdrop that supports SSL. So 1.6.20 is this latest i can get and the ssl is patchy with that

BTW i have full root access if there is anything i can add to make this work.

Ive tried adding further ips to the network interface.. but when i get to the forth bot.. it wobbles and falls over

Thanks,

Louis

To make this work, you would need to use the latest stable version - 1.6.21 if you don't need SSL ot the development version 1.8 to have SSL.

New problem.
Im using eggdrop 1.8 as i am needing ssl.
When I rehash the bot it tells me no config found and bombs out.. yet i can start it manually with the same config? lol

Are you sure you don't see any errors before that? After all, the message usually states "CONFIG FILE NOT LOADED (NOT FOUND, OR ERROR)"

In some cases, some tcl-scripts are just not "rehash-safe", expecting some initializations not to have been done as the script loads. Any errors during the execution of the config-file (upon init, .restart, or .rehash) will cause your eggdrop to terminate with the above message.
