My bad, when I said "I think it's the paths", I had "Try su -" in the line that followed it. But well, someone else too care of it

the 'su -' before the name (while including the subsequent -c) did the trick delightfully.

Now, immediately following startup of the irc server, eggdrop loads with full functionality.

Thanks guys, and thanks Sir_Fz for the extra-elegant eye.

I think it's the paths. But well, why wud you wanna start your bot from the root shell though, maybe eggdrop chokes even if you try to run it on another a/c thru the root shell? Just a guess.

Get inthat user a/c and setup autobotchk.

Hi folks!

Eggdrop runs great (including all my delightful logging and joinandpart .tcl scripts) when i run it from my user shell, using

Code:

./eggdrop DevBot.conf

However whether I use autobotchk & a botchk crontab or a startup command from the root shell, like

Code:

su myname -c ./eggdrop DevBot.conf

those delightful TCL modules won't load.

Permissions? Environment Variables?

Sorry if this is posted elsewhere - I did my honest best to track it down!

Thanks in advance for any help.
