Weird server notice

[mabboo]

Guys I keep getting a wierd server notice every five mins and I can't do a whois at all. the Notice I get is this: -
*** (s) Notice -- Unable to write tunefile..

Can ANYONE help with either problem. I can't think where I screwed up on the config or what files I might be missing.

I'm running 3.2.4 (windows o/s)

Many thanks

The tunefile atores informatin about max users. The tunefile is named ircd.tune

Make sure the file exists and has the proper write permissions for the user running Unreal (If Unreal is installed as a service, make sure the system user can read/write/etc it)

Thanks for the info Stealth. I had no idea on what it was.

The file exists and it is in the unreal directory.

The server is linked on lavanet and I am able to access it locally without a problem.

How do I set the permissions for this file and where?

Also The whois problem is still around and I can't see any command modules in the directory but they are listed in the config. Are these aditional downloads that are required and if so where do I find them?

Later

If you're on UNIX, use chmod 777 ircd.tune.

Did un un-comment a line like this:

Code: Select all

/* loadmodule commands.so */

in the config file?

No I am on using the windows version.

OK, it's not so easy on Windows, but:

1. Go to Folder Options and make sure that Simple File Sharing (somewhere on the View tab) is OFF.
2. Right click on tune file, select Properties and select the Security tab. You can change your file permissions from there.

I'm assuming that you're dealing with an NTFS drive - FAT32 doesn't have file security (and if you're using FAT32, there had better be a very good reason for it...)
