This error is caused by bash whenever it is unable to find the executable to parse the script, so Alchera's post is partially on target, although he got the wrong file.

Taken from configure provided in 1.6.18 tarball:

Code:

#! /bin/sh# From configure.ac Revision: 1.23 .

Most likely the system in question has some non-standard shell-definitions, most likely lacking a symbolic link from /bin/sh to bash (or any other viable shell on the system).

A quick-fix would be to bug someone with root privileges to execute this:

Code:

cd /bin; ln -s bash sh

I think the original poster was having trouble with the initial pre compile ./configure not the actual eggdrop config set up. I have seen this before a long time ago and cant remember the solution. Try contacting the shell admin.
Sorry I cannot help
good luck

From eggdrop.conf:

#! /path/to/executable/eggdrop
# ^- This should contain a fully qualified path to your Eggdrop executable.

It's the first line of the file.

when i type ./configure i get this msg -bash: ./configure: /bin/sh: bad interpreter permission denied

I have tried googling it and seaching the forums for it but found nothing of help. Anyone know why?
