Two eggdrop in the same VPS

For autobotchk, you also need to set the nickname of the bot to be different, along with the botname.conf file.

This way, it will be able to use that as the descriptor.
IE:

./autobotchk firstbot.conf -dir /home/myhome/eggdrop -noemail
./autobotchk secondbot.conf -dir /home/myhome/eggdrop -noemail

AFAIK, it reads the set nickname, to associate the crontab to.

Code:

istok@matrix:~$ crontab -l0,10,20,30,40,50 * * * * /home/istok/eggdrop/Dog_Matix.botchk >/dev/null 2>&10,10,20,30,40,50 * * * * /home/istok/eggdrop/chatbox.botchk >/dev/null 2>&10,10,20,30,40,50 * * * * /home/istok/eggdrop/abusive.botchk >/dev/null 2>&10,10,20,30,40,50 * * * * /home/istok/eggdrop/Get_A_Fix.botchk >/dev/null 2>&1istok@matrix:~$

Each of those are the nicks of my bots.

In this post I found the solution.

put in a script that makes:
cd /home/user/eggdrop
su user -c ./eggdrop

In my case I have 2 bots I guess it should be:

Code:

cd /home/juanamores/eggdropsu juanamores -c ./eggdrop eggdrop.confsu juanamores -c ./eggdrop eggdrop2.conf

Await opinions .....

Try it. Experiment.
...

To try would have to reboot my server and bring down everything that is in it. I think it is better to wait one day fails VPS and watch the behavior of the rc.local file.

If anyone knows the correct syntax and proven to be put in the rc.local file could share in this thread.

....
You can put the Bot.botchk there?

Try it. Experiment.

When I make a mistake when writing a script, and crash the bot - for some reason I now have the habit of running the botchk file, to start the bot again.
I suppose that is what made me think of it.

It probably doesn't matter which way you choose to do it. Whatever works, and suits you.

Perhaps somebody else will care to comment on it here, too.

Why do this command? "eggdrop eggdrop2.conf" Why not just run the Bot.botchk file ? ... just something to think about.

I thought you could only put eggdrop executable (./eggdrop eggdrop.conf).

Thanks willyw fixed!

That is good to know.

Another doubt that posted in another thread and I got no answer:
For the bot to run when you start the operating system, I found this info, not if it is correct, you tell me if it's okay right?
We must change the rc.local file located in the following path /etc/rc.local
Code:
# cat /etc/rc.local#!/bin/sh## This script will be executed *after* all the other init scripts.# You can put your own initialization stuff in here if you don't# want to do the full Sys V style init stuff. /home/juanamores/eggdrop/eggdrop eggdrop.conf /home/juanamores/eggdrop/eggdrop eggdrop2.conf
It is correct syntax of the last 2 lines?

I can't say for sure, because I don't concern myself with it. If the server goes down, and is eventually re-started, my bots eventually come back up due to crontab entries, like we have just discussed. That's good enough for me.

I'd have to research what you are doing - and you can do that just as well as I.

One thought though:
Why do this command? "eggdrop eggdrop2.conf" Why not just run the Bot.botchk file ? ... just something to think about.

Examine .conf file for both bots, and find:
#set botnet-nick "LlamaBot"

That is the default line.

In both .conf files, are both set to the same ?
I believe that would cause the behavior you are experiencing.

In one .conf file do something like:
set botnet-nick "Bot1"
and the other do:
set botnet-nick "Bot2"

( I would use the real nicks of each bot)

and try again.

Let us know if that lets autobotchk make two lines in crontab, one for each bot.

There is a problem with autobotchk.
I added 2 bots and botck I have added to this:

./autobotchk eggdrop.conf -noemail -5
./autobotchk eggdrop2.conf -noemail -5

Each conf belongs to each of the bots.
Accepts the command, but only by the VPS cron process is displayed, the file is overwritten, leaving only the last autobotck created.
I tried creating a separate file for both bots botck called botchk and botchk2
Then...

./autobotchk eggdrop.conf -noemail -5
./autobotchk2 eggdrop2.conf -noemail -5

But when viewing cron from VPS withcrontab -l command displays only one because a new file called BOT.botchk is created, and this, it turns to overwrite the last autobotchk created.

[juanamores@vps174886 eggdrop]$ crontab -l
0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 * * * * /home/juanamores/eggdrop/BOT.botchk >/dev/null 2>&1

Is There a solution to accept both cron for each of the bots?

Forget to specifically mention the
listen
port. But if you are thinking, as you edit each of the .conf files, you will realize that each bot must have a unique listen port configured.

I hope it all works well for you.

Perfect willyw, I'm going to make the recommended way.
My idea is to divide the functions (tcls) in 2 bots eggdrop because one has lag (dislay) in certain commands.
I think if I use two different bots, diminish them lag caused by having too many functions into one.
If new questions arise me in practice the'll ask for this thread.
Thank You

I want to put 2 bots eggdrops on the same server (VPS).
The questions I have are:
1) I must install and compile the new eggdrop bot for the new?

No.

2) I can be installed on a different path or process eggdrop different name? botchk tcl, how distinguishes to both processes eggdrop?

One of the things that must be configured in the botchk file is the name of the .conf file used to run the bot.

To run two or more bots (assuming your provider does not care) you simply need to create a new
eggdrop.conf
file for each bot. As you edit it, keep it in mind, that there will be more than one bot running now.
For example, I would want to change this default line:
logfile mco * "logs/eggdrop.log"
as I wouldn't want two or more bots using the same file.

I suggest that for file naming, for each eggdrop.conf you have, use the bot's nickname as the filename. As in
ChanBot.conf
Jalapeno.conf
It just makes it easier to manage.

Then, with just one compile and installation, you can do:
./eggdrop ChanBot.conf
and
./eggdrop Jalapeno.conf

thus running two bots from one installation.
Use
ps x
to see them.

I hope this helps.
