eggdrop only run with -n

@osva:
Most likely the same scenario occurs for you aswell. The autoconf-script fails to detect that your tcl-libraries are threaded, and thus excludes some important code to get around issues regarding fork() and pthreads..
One workaround would be to define the macro HAVE_TCL_THREADS in your config.h after you've run ./configure, but before you start compiling.

I have the exact same problem.. eggdrop will connect only in -n mode.

This is odd...
Now it seems to correctly identify tcl as threaded. Does the issue with eggdrop requiring -n to operate still persist?

here is the configure.log, cinfig.log, config.h

I've tcl compiled with enable threads

I believe you mis-understood me there.
It's the config.h, config.log and actual output from ./configure for eggdrop I'm looking for.
What I'm trying to do, is determine why it fails to detect that your tcl-libraries was compiled with --threads-enabled...

Here is the link for the config.log von tcl8.4.14:

Seems your post got trimmed? (possible to put them on a webserver and post a link?)
And was also hoping for the console output from ./configure (hence the > myconf.log).
As for --enable-threads, I was referring to how tcl was compiled, not eggdrop (as --enable-threads won't affect the result with eggdrop).

And, regarding the quickfix, this has to be done after ./configure is run, but before you run make.

Odd, it would seem your configure-script skips alot of tests, including any tests on availability, version, and functions of tcl..

A quickfix to get your eggie working properly, assuming your tcl-libs are indeed compiled with --enable-threads (most likely). would be to change this line in your config.h and recompile:

Code:

/* Define for Tcl that has threads. *//* #undef HAVE_TCL_THREADS */

into

Code:

/* Define for Tcl that has threads. */#define HAVE_TCL_THREADS 1

This however will not solve the issues with the configure-script.

Think you could start fresh, run configure again dumping the output into a file , and post it aswell? (ie: ./configure ... > myconf.log)

Most likely, your tcl-libraries are compiled with --enable-threads, yet eggdrop's autoconf-script fails to detect this...

Do you still have the config.h and config.log files from running ./configure lying around?
