"ircd.pid"

Alright, this is my first time installing unrealircd on a linux system and I'm getting the following error (after I compile, etc.)

I run it and it says:

/home/aven/Unreal3.2/unreal: line 10: /home/aven/Unreal3.2/src/ircd: No such file or directory

I asked some people that are familiar with unrealircd, they have no idea what it is. Some don't even have the "ircd" in /src

I re compiled and installed numerous times and it doesn't solve it. I even tried to create the file myself and that didn't work either (it would say "permission denied")

So, can someone tell me what that is and how I can get it to run?

Thanks.

src/ircd is the ircd binary itself. If it doesn't exist then something went wrong with your compile.

This issue has been fixed and yes there was something wrong with my compile.

However, here's another problem.

I got my server up and everything works fine. Although, when I try to link my server, it connects then my unrealircd automaticlly crashes/disconnects. So, it connects for about 2 seconds then crashes.

When I don't link, the server runs great.

I don't get any error messages. It says "Remote Host closed"

anyone know what the problem is?

thanks

Yeah, the problem is you didn't read the FAQ:

"You are suggested to try current CVS instead"

what exactly do they mean by that? what is CVS?

thank you.

If you have gcc 4 ('gcc --version' in the shell to get the version number of the compiler), then I strongly suggest using CVS, otherwise you'll crash on-link indeed.
If you do not have gcc 4 (but for example 3.x.x or 2.x.x), then ignore my comment ;).

Ah, thank you. Although, my unreal is working great!

Btw, I heard the bug will be fixed in 3.2.4. And I'm curious, when's it going to be released?

I know most coders don't have the *exact* timing but... but, to expand it a bit, will it be released sometime this month? next month?
