When I try to load Unreal, I get this error:
Code: Select all
* Loading IRCd configuration ..
[error] Unable to create file 'tmp/9264737D.commands.dll': Permission denied
* unrealircd.conf:40: loadmodule modules/commands.dll: failed to load: The specified module could not be found.
[error] IRCd configuration failed to load
I believe I figured out the problem, though. The tmp file is set to read-only which I think is the problem. But whenever I unset the read-only and try to load Unrealirc, the tmp file automatically sets itself back to read-only. Any suggestions?

Isn't tmp supposed to be a folder, not a file?

yes /tmp is supposed to be a directory not a file.

Where the arrow is pointed is what I'm referring to:

right click my computer, properties, advanced, environment variables. Make sure TEMP and TMP are both there and that the directory for each exists.

Both exist. Well both have the same directory.

Are you trying to run it as an admin or regular user?

Regular, but I am the admin

Make sure the 'tmp' directory is writable by the user running the ircd. In fact, make sure the 'Unreal3.2' directory is writable by the user running the ircd ;P.
(the TMP/TEMP env. vars are unused btw)

Well the easiest thing to do would be to run it as an admin correct? Right click Unreal.exe while holding down the shift key. click "Run-as" and put the administrator name/password in there.

The proper directory is ./tmp, not /tmp. Windows doesn't even have a /tmp.

This is a tad off-topic, but when I was playing around with the beta of Windows Vista, I got the exact same thing - even with admin privileges. Something to investigate for when everyone upgrades.

The entire UnRealIrcd file is set to read only, but also whenever I try to unset that, it automatically resets to read only.
