Eggdrop not sending data to channel

2003-10-03T06:39:36-04:00

Ok I look like a total fool now.

You know what my problem was.... My BNC was relaying channel data to me, and I mean any of it, I could get private messages and notices, I was wondering why it was so quiet. lol

Anyway thank you all for your kind replys

Eggdrop not sending data to channel

Ok thanks for your replys.

I tried the .clearqueue all command, and this was the output

.clearqueue all

Removed 0 messages from all queues.

[10:07] #Five-Time# clearqueue all

Still no joy im afriad

Another suggestion was the channel being moderated.
Nope it isnt, and the bot is oped.

here is the output of my ps -x everything looks normal to me.

I know it isnt a tcl issue, as tcl files which dont require data to be sent directly to the channel work fine.

I hope this helps narrow down the problem.

And thanks again

In adition, typeing "ps x" at a console may give interesting results.

If you see lots of zombie programs, your uptime script has reached a "too many open files" state.

You would need to a adjust your script to make sure it closes the file descriptor after using it.

Or are the messages similar?
If yes, they could be enqueued...
just type .clearqueue all and see if your bot works better

Is the channel moderated and the eggdrop is not oped? Any errors from that script or from another in the party line with it?

Eggdrop not sending data to channel

2003-10-02T22:53:42-04:00

Hi Everyone,

Has anyone ever had a problem with their eggdrop suddenly not sending data to the channel? It was workign fine a couple of hours ago, and now it wont send data. I know it sees the data as I use a tcl script to display the bot uptime. When i type !uptime I can see that the bot see's it via dcc chat window. It just wont respond public. All private message commands are still working. And no I havent edited the config files at all. It runs from my machine and no other users have access. The notice commands work fine, it just cant message data to the channel.

My system is freeBSD 5.1, it worked fine until a couple of hours ago, and for some unknown reason stopped working. and the network it sits on is Dalnet (if that matters)
I hope someone can tell me whats wrong or give me a work around.
Thanks in advance for any replies I recieve

Mick
