Why not just use the autobotchk script?

From your egg dir:

cp scripts/autobotchk .
chmod u+x autobotchk
./autobotchk configfilename -noemail -5

What permissions should I have sent on this conf file so the cron daemon can start it?

Thanks.

I will also answer...
chmod as ppslim said, check that the first line points to your eggdrop executable

Code:

#!/path/to/your/eggdrop

I also added this right below that line:

Code:

set path "/home/tajson/eggdrop"

Now I replace all paths with "$path/the/path", for example:

set mod-path "modules/"
to
set mod-path "$path/modules/"

Now I can start my eggdrop wherever in my filesystem I stand by pointing to my configuration file, for example if I'm in my public_html dir "../../eggdrop/Lina^17.conf"

I want a $path solution to be standard in eggdrop configuration files.

Hi BassTeQ

If that doesn't help, add './eggdrop' to where it asks you for your config file (without the ' of course).
Somehow for me chmoding never worked..

chmod u+x
