[3.2.1] Problem with new win32 module feature?

[STING]

UnrealIRCD will not intialize, because of the following problem:

* Loading IRCd configuration ..
* unrealircd.conf:32: loadmodule 4ù: failed to load: The specified module could not be found.

[error] IRCd configuration failed to load

unrealircd.conf:
loadmodule "src/modules/commands.dll";
loadmodule "src/modules/cloak.dll";

I already changed the "so" filetype to"dll", but to no avail.
System: Windows NT 4.0 SP6a

Hi!

unrealircd.conf:
loadmodule "src/modules/commands.dll";
loadmodule "src/modules/cloak.dll";

I already changed the "so" filetype to"dll", but to no avail.
System: Windows NT 4.0 SP6a

Your path info is wrong. The line should look something like that:

loadmodule "modules/commands.dll";
loadmodule "modules/cloak.dll";

So you don't have a "src" dir in windows version.

Cheers

Yeah I thought so, so I already tried that, but still the same error message. It gets weirder:

loadmodule "/modules/commands.dll";
returns: unrealircd.conf:32: loadmodule 4ù: failed to load: The specified module could not be found.

loadmodule "modules/commands.dll";
returns: * unrealircd.conf:33: loadmodule commands.dll: failed to load: The specified module could not be found.

Changing the /'s to '\s, also doesn't do the trick

There are no ".so"-Files in the Windows Version...

In the initial example.conf there are

hmm have you tried downloading a fresh copy of 3.2.1 ? . I use winxp and with the paths changed to

Code: Select all

loadmodule "modules/commands.dll"; 
loadmodule "modules/cloak.dll"; 

it booted up ok . All I did was move the config file from the 3.2 to the new dir and copied over the motd files etc then edited the changes to the .conf .

Try removing the quotes.

Code: Select all

loadmodule modules/commands.dll;
loadmodule modules/cloak.dll;

Try removing the quotes.

What's your problem with quotes? (I actually like them.) If you remove them, won't solve anything. The quotes are OK.

3.2.1-pre2 didnt like it when I put in the quotes.

[AngryWolf]

Could someone explain me why?

[codemastr]

Quotes should have *nothing* to do with anything. The quote handling code is handled in a totally different layer of code. It has nothing to do with loadmodule, it is handled before the IRCd even has any clue of what a loadmodule line is. If quotes didn't work there, then they wouldn't work anywhere.

Furthermore, when you see a problem, REPORT IT. I never saw anyone report a bug about quotes not working. I am confident that quotes work fine, however, when you experience a problem, REPORT IT. I get people saying, "Have you fixed bug XYZ yet?" all the time, to which I respond, "This is the first time I've heard of it." If no one reports problems, they won't be fixed.

Since I'm new with UnrealIRCD, i'm not too quick to start shouting about bugs. I ask around first, to see if I am making a mistake.

Also, I wanted to submit the fact that the loadmodules lines in the win32 example.conf contained *NIX references, but I was not able to register with bug tracker:

Ontopic:
I have deleted the Unreal folder completely and installed Unreal 3.2.1.
Then changed the loadmodule lines to loadmodule "modules/commands.dll"; and it works fine now.

Thank you all for your assistance.

Now Unreal does not give any error messages.. but now wircd.exe goes 99% CPU again
Using 3.21 SSL.. but also had this with 3.2 non-SSL.

Windows NT4.0 SP6
I don't run it as a service.
I did run it as a service, but that made things worse.
The service couldn't be de-activated or wircd.exe could not be killed.

People have reported that before on NT.
On *NIX I would just tell people to install strace and ltrace and trace the process, but... ;)
