UnrealIRCd Forums

My network was linked to another network, then some stupid staff wanted every server to have SSL. Now that I installed it, and moved my files in to the folder, both my server and my friends server have stopped responding. I checked the IRCd log file, but nothing shows.

um Gotta little more clear on what is going on with your network

Maybe is it a windows server or is unix, linux... etc

Its all hosted on Windows.

Have you checked the log file?

That question kinda answers it self doesnt it? Cause in my first post I said: "I checked the IRCd log file, but nothing shows."

did you encrypt the ssl key and are running unreal as a service? then it would hang mysteriously. solution: do not encrypt the key.

did you move your unrealircd installation directory? that won't work either. uninstall + install.

other things that usually help trace stuff are: reinstall unreal and don't make it run as a service (so run it in gui mode) until you find out what's wrong.

Either one of those that I tried, and they still will not work.

Follow these instructions: http://www.x-tab.org/unreal.html#nostart

I've also made a beautiful flow chart:


Either Unreal will start, or show you errors. There should be no situation where Unreal will not start and show no errors (unless you have a module crashing it when it starts).
