A crash bug in the multiline implementation in 6.2.4/6.2.5 ...

That's a debug message that shows you the user is accepted by CBL. If you are saying: "but the user does not show up online after this?" then it means something else is not allowing the user in. I know, it is a tad confusing, but it can happen due to the ping cookie test (initial PING/PONG), maybe ...

GeoIP files had a 403 error. This is now fixed.

I've been doing a server (software) upgrade on the machine serving the *.unrealircd.org sites. If anything is not working, please let me know. Sometimes these are hard for me to spot.

This UnrealIRCd 6.2.5 release is mostly about improving IPv6 clone detection. If your IRC network has IPv6 connectivity then hot-patching without restart (see below), or upgrading, is highly recommended. If you don't have IPv6 then this release is less important.

Without this, a user with IPv6 ...

Just to confirm... If I want to use the new geoip engine, I must recompile, not use the ./unrealircd upgrade --rc way ?

Yes, that would be easiest: re-running ./Config that prompts. Though you could also do this in your conf to choose explicitly:
@define $NO_DEFAULT_GEOIP "1"
loadmodule "geoip ...

UnrealIRCd 6.2.4 comes with optional multiline support (not loaded by default yet), a lot of new conditional config and crule functions, and a new GeoIP engine. A bug has been fixed that could confuse services with +e/+I extbans and a Windows crash bug has been resolved.

Indeed, the 6.2.3 windows version has a bug that causes it to crash under some circumstances after X minutes. It didn't crash on my machine and neither at someone else that I know, but the bug is real so it is entirely logical that would crash on some machines... just depends a bit on circumstances ...

Yeah I put the release online before the Windows compile finished.. then saw a mistake and had to recompile again, so not your fault

The Release Candidate for future version 6.2.4 is now available for testing. The stable version is scheduled later thins month.

UnrealIRCd 6.2.4-rc1 comes with optional multiline support and a lot of new conditional config and crule functions, plus a new GeoIP engine. A bug has been fixed that ...

Indeed, the Windows version of UnrealIRCd 6.2.2 fails to boot. That's a bit silly. I have released UnrealIRCd 6.2.3 now. Also fixed an issue with DNS not working (which apparently is a known issue in latest c-ares release).

UnrealIRCd 6.2.3 windows version is now available and seems to work okay.

This release comes with several new features, improved security, and a number of bug fixes. See the release notes for all details.

As always, you can download UnrealIRCd from www.unrealircd.org. On *NIX you can upgrade with the command: ./unrealircd upgrade

From your list of modules i don't expect any of those are the cause. Could it be something else, like who is on which server (multi-server) while Gottem only tried to reproduce it single-server?

EDIT: Oh it has been 2wks

The second Release Candidate for future version 6.2.3 is now available for testing. The stable version is still scheduled for somewhere in March 2026.

UnrealIRCd 6.2.3-rc2 comes with a couple of new features, improved security hardening and has quite a number of bug fixes. See the release notes for ...
