actually it looks as if your trying to load the WINDOWS dlls on a *nix box. If so read every word of what you pasted. Your answer is right in front of you

Thanks for your swift replies people

I didnt download the *nix version....

i went for the 3.2.2 (Win32) which i would like to run on my windows pc XP Home.

katsklaw, the coding shows im trying to load the windows version by deleting the //'s using the 3.2.2 (Win32).

Doesnt it? :?

katsklaw, no! Here "The specified module could not be found" is actually supposed to mean "a DLL required by commands.dll could not be found". It's a typical error message by Windows operating systems. As confusing as it can be, I know, but it's Microsoft that calls runtime libraries as modules... A DLL that an Unreal module file can require is usually one of the CRT libraries (msvcrt*.dll).

I don't know what's happening there, but I think you're mixing an old commands.dll with a new UnrealIRCd installation, or maybe you've removed a CRT library coincidentally before rehashing (I'm not sure in the latter case).

I suggest Mr_S to completely reinstall his UnrealIRCd, and don't mix old & new files, don't delete the necessary mscvrt*.dll's, whatever.

I hear ya MR_S. I just posted in your previous topic, and i am getting the same error msg. Yes the msg is simple an obvious but its a fresh install so there is no chance of a file mismatch (using the older unreal .dll's).

I think we are both stuck with the same prob, so help please :)

I already suggested FileMon in the other topic. Start filemon, start capturing, start unrealircd, wait for the error, stop capturing... then have a look at the results.

If you can't figure it out, you could send me the log (@filemon file->save as) on syzop AT unrealircd DOT com.
