Problem with IRCservices

scrat · Post by **scrat** » Thu Oct 06, 2005 12:29 pm

Hey!

I've used bahamut as IRC server before, which worked fine with the ircservices. Now I will use UnrealIRCD instead of bahamut. I've configured UnrealIRCD and made some changes in the ircservices-config.
The problem is, that ircservices can't connect to UnrealIRCD and I've absolutly no idea what the problem is.
I got the following messages in ircservices.log:

[Oct 06 12:44:03.099500 2005] Initiated connection to 127.0.0.1:6667
[Oct 06 12:44:03.099881 2005] debug: Sent: PROTOCTL SJOIN SJOIN2 SJ3 NICKv2 VHP VL NOQUIT UMODE2 TOKEN NICKIP
[Oct 06 12:44:03.099985 2005] debug: Sent: PASS xxxx

[Oct 06 12:44:40.299812 2005] FATAL: Remote server returned: ERROR :Closing Link: [127.0.0.1] (Ping timeout)

ircservices and UnrealIRCD run on the same machine and ircservices should connect to port 6667.

Does anyone have an idea what the problem could be. I've you need more information, or if I should post the whole configs or parts of it, please let me know.

thx, scrat

post all the "listen" parts of your config.

(but remember to remove the password

)

hey!

The listen and link part of my config:

listen 127.0.0.1:6667;

link at-vie01a-mirror02.chello.at {
username *;
hostname 127.0.0.1;
bind-ip *;
port 6667;
password-connect "xxxx";
password-receive "xxxx";
class servers;
};

did you change the protocol setting in irc services conf file to unreal32 ?

Besides the above, also be sure to try the latest ircservices (5.0.55?). I had a similar problem a few months ago with a few versions ago. The version before and after were just working fine :p.

I've changed it to unreal and not unreal32 - so I gues this could be the reason why services didn't work?

I've tried 5.0.54 and 5.0.55 - didn't work with both. I've also installed the latest version of UnrealIRCD.

hey!

Hm, when I change the protocol settings to unreal32, I get the message that unreal32.so can't be found. I just have unreal.so and so I can't change the protocol settings to unreal32 - or did I missunderstood something.

Not sure on your protocol mod proble, don't really have time to read it right now - but be sure to re-read your configuration properly. There is an item you WILL need to enable for ircservices to work on Unreal - otherwise it'll fail silently. (As I recall, anyhow).

LoadModule protocol/unreal

oops my bad it is unreal not 32 lol sorry dude ,

Code: Select all

link services.ourchat.tk
{
username    *;
hostname    *;
bind-ip     *;
port        6669;
hub             *;
password-connect "xxxxxx";
password-receive "xxxxxx";
class           servers;
};

Thats how my unreal link block is configured .

This next bit is from ircservices.conf .

Code: Select all

RemoteServer	127.0.0.1 6669 "xxxxxx"

Thats the remote config section .

Code: Select all

ServerName	"services.ourchat.tk"
ServerDesc	"Services for Our-Chat IRC "
ServiceUser	"[email protected]"

and the services identification section .

As you can see it ties into the info in the unreal link block .

If your services name isnt "at-vie01a-mirror02.chello.at" change it to the name you gave services . Other than that without some form of error from irc services telling you whats up then Im pretty stumped without seeing your conf files for ircservices . Dont post em up on here though .

hey!

The link name and the ServerName are the same.

but be sure to re-read your configuration properly. There is an item you WILL need to enable for ircservices to work on Unreal

I've checked the configs again, but I really don't have an idea what item I have to enable that ircservices works. For me there are all important items for connection enabled.

Yeah, there is a rather obscure option I think.. try posting to the Services mailing list (NOT the coding one) and see if you get a reply. I might ask Andy to add it to the FAQ while he's at it, because it's stumped me once now, and I've seen it get a few others a few times too
