Hi,

Until this morning Unreal IRCd 3.2.7 was functioning fine, but somehow stopped. When I tried to restart I got the output below. As you can see there are no real error messages to give an indication of what went wrong.

I even tried to compile with DEBUGMODE and then start IRCd, but that also gave no obvious error messages. Does anybody have any idea of what is going on?

Thanks in advance.

What are the last things in ircd.log? If you changed from the default ircd.log with a log block in your conf, be sure to check that log instead because that's where the error would be.

Does Unreal show in ps?

The last entries in the log show the connections that were established this morning. Nothing else unfortunately.

There is no process called *irc* or *real* running and the log block in the configuration file only points to ircd.log.

I just had some time to see if there was something wrong with the server and as a desperate measure I even rebooted it. The server itself is working fine, but the IRC daemon still refuses to start. Here are the last lines from the log (addresses obscured):

Do you have any set::allowed-nickchars set?

No.

I did do a fresh download and install and now everything seems to work fine. I even used the unrealircd.conf from the previous installation.

Very strange: on the old installation the problem persisted even after a 'make clean' and a re-compile. I hope that the problem does not happen again, since the previous install 'just stopped' and gave no pointers whatsoever. The old install is still available, so if you still would like to have information it should still be available.

Thanks anyway for the quick responses.
