your configure script might be corrupted/broken; try starting over - remove the build dir and eggdrop tarball (the .tar.gz file), download it again, untar, cd and run ./configure --help; if that works, run ./configure

hmm are you in so-called jail(1) environment of FreeBSD? you can't run eggdrop from FreeBSD jail (at least not without tweaks that you most likely cannot do yourself)

what's your operating system? try uname -a

Yes

Well, I won't say I hire the whole box, but part thereof. I actually rent a piece of the server together with other people. So I don't have root access.

And I am a newbie in the matters of Linux and these bots. If anyone could get an eggdrop bot runing for me...........well.......I'll be glad to exchange the favour with free webspace and bandwidth

My understanding is that the person hiring the box is the one that installs all that is needed. That being the case, and with a good knowledge of *BSD or *nix (whichever you've installed), you should have all the appropriate 'bits' needed i.e. gcc, tcl/tlk etc.

contact your shell admin and let them know you can't compile software, they are responsible for making sure these kinds of errors don't happen

thing is, I'm a reseller and I sell webspace *cough* and i sellthe webspace with the shell included. So maybe i must let my host know about this whhere i rent my server from. I just thought I did something wrong. I don't know much of compiling these bots.

Thanx

hello there,

I tried to install eggdrop and after runing the ./configure I got this on the last line:

"configure: error: C preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check
See `config.log' for more details."

Under config.log" there is a lot of things that dont make sense to me. Don't know if it is needed to paste here. What am I doing wrong and can I fix this?

Much thanx
