Flags Issue (Weird problem, need help)

2013-01-21T00:45:03-04:00

After some experimentation i've got it.

I am not sure exactly what happened or why but... the first user, (after the owner), mabus2... i had to add the flags and hostmask, and then part and rejoin before it FINALLY worked... all my other users now are being added normally and it works now...

Strangely, the other users do not need to part and rejoin, just the second user. It's like it resolved some sort of bug or something. Anyway, it works now

Thanks to everyone who helped

Well that definately narrows things down, and explains why it's affecting all the scripts. Now how do we fix it

I am noticing something new.....

When I start the bot with ./eggdrop -m debates

It starts up, and there are no error messages at all, HOWEVER.... it doesn't actually create a userfule (yes i deleted the userfile before doing this). I would assume thats related somehow.

Then it's definatly a userfile issue.... the bot simply doesn't know the users by their current hostmasks, or if it knows them, they don't have the flags to use the commands:)

Yes, I recompiled it from scratch.

The .channel #channel command only shows the nicks currently on the channel, with any userfile info for the user, if they are known by a handle currently.

Have you recompiled the bots from scratch after the shell moved your stuff?

Ok, I did that;

I changed to Mabus2
then in the console I typed .channel #Debates

<(Debates> @Mabus2 Mabus 01:24 N ~Mabus@tweakin.com.ar

so it saw it, however when i then typed;

.match mabus2

I still get <(Debates> Mabus2 no 0 - never (nowhere)

After exiting with mabus2, I typed the .channel #Debates command again. Interestingly mabus2 was not on the list. It's as if it's not seeing any new people for some reason.

The command is .channel #yourchannelname

It will show you who is on the channel and the flags they are recognised by.
Anyone without a handle, isn't known by the bot at all:)

Step 1, check users' hostmasks...
Step 2, add/remove/update hostmasks to properly identify the users in the channel...
Step 3, use .channels once again to verify that your eggdrop now recognizes them...

I have a fresh clean empty userlist with just mabus in it
I added mabus2 with the proper flags
I typed .channels and got a "what you need help?" error.. was this the right command?

I also removed the channel entirely by typing .-chan #debates
and then readded it, but that did not resolve the problem.... mabus2 being re-added is still not "seen" in the console using the .match command

Confirmed, this is in fact the problem. The bot does not recognize newly added users to the last seen thing. Anyone have any ideas on how this might be fixed?

Is tested and it works

Code:

# Op someone in the channel# Usage: !op bind pub - !op pub:opproc pub:op {nick uhost hand chan arg} {set who [lindex [split $arg] 0]if {$who == ""} {if {[matchattr $hand n] || [matchattr $hand o $chan]} {if {[isop $nick $chan]} {putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :\002$nick\002 - You are already @ here"return} else {pushmode $chan +o $nick}}} else {if {[isop $who $chan]} { putserv "PRIVMSG $chan :\002$nick\002 - \00304$who\003 is already @ here"; return }if {[matchattr $hand n] || [matchattr $hand o $chan]} {pushmode $chan +o $who}}}

Doing a quick test.....

I am finding that users with the Never on the last seen.... are not able to use the flag scripts. Users with info on the last seen >ARE< able to use it.

Whatever is causing this is related to the LAST SEEN thing.

Now how do we fix that

As far as the script is concerned, most of these are scripts which i downloaded from the egghelp file depository, most of them scripts i have been using for many years, which all suddenly stopped working well on the exact same day, the same day the shell changed. So It's not a script problem.

As for not identifying users properly, thats interesting. There may indeed be something going on there.

A few issues I see with the script:

Don't use "args" as a parameter name, it's handled in a special manner in tcl, and accepts 0 or more arguments (placing them in a list). There are some cases where this might be desirable; though most certainly not in this case.
Consider using pushmode instead of putserv when setting channel modes. This helps your eggdrop optimizing mode settings.
isop needs a nickname, not a handle. It checks whether the nickname has channel operator status in the channel.

Other than that, have you verified that your users are properly recognized (use the .channels dcc-partyline command). The exerpt from the userfile listing you posted earlier would indicate that your eggdrop does not recognize mabus1 properly, as this user has never been seen by your eggdrop.

Instead of $hand try [nick2hand $nick]
