 Posted: Sat Jan 16, 2016 10:31 am Post subject: Eggdrop 1.8 does not set chanmodes with unrealircd 4.0.1 |
 |
|
Hi there,
I've recently upgraded to unrealircd 4.0.1. After a Debian upgrade I had to recompile my eggdrop bot (formerly version 1.6.20) and decided to go with the current development version 1.8.
Actually everything is working quite well. I just have the problem that the bot does not set chanmodes and does not op me when I join a channel (I wrote a TCL script that uses the built-in function 'botisop') although the bot has +o.
I've tried everything but wasn't able to find the error. Here's the channel info from my userfile:
| Code: |
channel add #delirium {
chanmode +sn
idle-kick 0
stopnethack-mode 0
-statuslog
}
|
When the bot joins #delirium and is the only one in the channel it does nothing. Although it is opped, it doesn't set the chanmodes.
Does anyone know what I've done wrong?
Best regards,
fabius |

Some things to check:
Read this:
http://www.egghelp.org/faq.htm#102
There might be something helpful there.
Check the channel setttings - as described. By now, they might be different from whatever you have configured in eggdrop.conf.
Next - what network is this on?
Perhaps this network has Chanserv and some sort of mode lock is set up.
(Do you own the channel?... if this is set with Chanserv, can you edit the settings? )

You'd need to post the entire script, or pastebin it and post the link.
http://paste.tclhelp.net
In the meantime, try the
.channel
command in the partyline, to get a listing of all users in the channel, including the bot itself.
Does that return show the bot as op'd? In other words, does the bot 'know' that it is op'd?
I hope this helps.

That is exactly my problem. Using .channel #channame the bot doesn't know that it's opped although it has +o given by me (IRCD admin).
The weird thing is that if only ircdops and the bot is in a chan and the bot is the only one without +o it tries to rejoin the channel as it doesn't see the ircops.
I've checked the ircop flag but I don't have that 'invisible' flag so I really don't know what is going on.
The same configuration with eggdrop-1.16.20 works like a charm, so it can't be the IRCD configuration. But I don't have a clue what might have been changed to eggdrop so it doesn't recognized it's +o.
To answer your question: It's a private ircd that es entirely made for a few persons only.
The op .tcl script worked for years now and I'm sure that it's not a problem in the script. The only problem - and that needs to be fixed - is that the bot simply does NOT know that it's opped. |

Two things come to mind:
Just to be sure, check this section of eggdrop.conf :
| Quote: |
# Some IRC servers are using some non-standard op-like channel prefixes/modes.
# Define them here so the bot can recognize them. Just "@" should be fine for
# most networks. Un-comment the second line for some UnrealIRCds.
set opchars "@"
#set opchars "@&~"
|
Next, visit :
https://github.com/eggheads/eggdrop
Reason:
Just yesterday, I saw in live chat a conversation similar to what you have described.
Perhaps there was a small bug in the code when that person downloaded it, because he was told to grab another copy and start over.
It sounded like the bug was quickly corrected.
Compile, install, and see if that cured it.
That person reported that it DID fix it.
Try it... why not, eh?
I believe this is the link:
https://github.com/eggheads/eggdrop/archive/v1.8.tar.gz
You did want version 1.8, correct?

YES! IT WORKED!
Thank you so much for your help. I never thought that this could be a bug in eggdrop, but it was. It's now fixed and everything works like a charm
Thanks a ton for your help, bro! |

It was really the folks on the development team. I just happened to be hanging around #eggdrop on Freenode at the right time to see some chat about it.... and save you some time.
Have fun with your new bot.
