Permission error

Post by Reeckz »

Been trying to setup a UnrealIRCd on my friends VPS for him, its running CentOS5 - No idea what to do.

heres the error

Code: Select all

root@vps [~/Unreal3.2]# sh ./unreal start
Starting UnrealIRCd
./unreal: line 10: /root/Unreal3.2/src/ircd: Permission denied
Possible error encountered (IRCd seemingly not started)

Thanks in Advance

Its fixed...he cmod the file 777.

I didn't have FTP access to his server so i couldn't cmod it.

Unreal shouldn't be run as root. It should be run as a regular user with no elevated access.
