Re: bot still not coming into irc

2004-11-28T15:44:02-04:00

20:09] Trying server 7000:6667
[20:09] Failed connect to 7000 (Invalid namespace)
[20:09] (@) EOF socket 7, not a dcc socket, not anything.

then it tries to connect to next server and port and the following line appears

20:09] -NOTICE- *** Looking up your hostname
[20:09] -NOTICE- *** Checking Ident
[20:09] -NOTICE- *** Couldn't look up your hostname

First, check your serverlist and remove that non-existent server (server 7000 on port 6667 ).That will remove that obstacle...Then, I suggest you make sure your bot's vhost/ip address is resolving on your network, i.e. /dns your.cool.vhost.com, or /dns 123.45.678.9. If it resolves, try to change your port, as the one you selected might already be in use by someone else on your shell. Hope this helps

bot still not coming into irc

2004-11-26T21:41:43-04:00

well, i dunno if this helps but, when i ran another bot from the same user, even if they used different folders, it gave me an ass load of errors. what i had to do is make a new user and run it from there. maybe this helps ya, maybe it doesn't but it's just m 2 cents

bot still not coming into irc

2004-11-26T21:13:42-04:00

i set ip and the host to same as first (sucessfully running) bot and it still wont come into irc. I looked at the log an it appears as if its having trouble connecting, the last line (far too long to put whole log) was the following:

20:09] Trying server 7000:6667
[20:09] Failed connect to 7000 (Invalid namespace)
[20:09] (@) EOF socket 7, not a dcc socket, not anything.

then it tries to connect to next server and port and the following line appears

20:09] -NOTICE- *** Looking up your hostname
[20:09] -NOTICE- *** Checking Ident
[20:09] -NOTICE- *** Couldn't look up your hostname

hmm, but i have my hostname set,

any ideas?

thank you soo much for your time and help:)
