Do you have services installed? If no, take a look here.

If yes, add to the unrealircd.conf:

include "aliases/your-services-package-here.conf";

Please do take a look in the /aliases dir as I am not sure wheter all of the service packages are included.

the error states that services are down

make sure you have services running and that they are linked to unreal

sorry casper but i usually forget to start services and there for i get that error often, if the error says services down it has nothing to do with installing or alias because if it were ether one of those it would say no such nick/channel.

dont get disappointed because of this small mistake

If
include "aliases/your-services-package-here.conf";
is not added to UnrealIRCD config, and you try to use alias such as /ns /cs, you will get a message saying that "Services are down" even if they are connected to the server and running without problem.

i just did a quick test and when i commented out alias it says unknown command but if i do /msg alias it get sent because i have it set in services conf. so i still belive that the incorrect error if they are indeed connected

I think the alliases does not look if services is connected or not, they just send the message and if it does not arrive they say:

"Services are currently down. Please try again later."


simple example: I dont have HostServ running

on /hs help it responds

(04:29:31) —› raw 440: hostserv Services are currently down. Please try again later.

(but services are connected)

on /ns help it responds

(04:29:51) -NickServ- NickServ allows you to "register" a nickname and prevent
etc..

so @ santa2452, the error is maybe wrong but it's what its shows

The aliases assume that the services are there, since the end-user are the one who set the alias.

If you don't have a hostserv, then don't set a hostserv alias : P
