Unreal stopping

Hello,

I'm a total noob in all the server-connected things, but I decided to run my own IRC server.
I've installed Unreal 3.2.7 properly, and it works - well, sort of.
When I start it by

Code: Select all

./unreal start
it starts, and I can create channels and send messages on IRC.
Then, suddenly, it stops working - checking

Code: Select all

ps ux
shows that the process is gone.

What's going on?

Thanks in advance for your help,
belbo.

Check your ircd.log. Also make sure that you have all 3rd party modules unloaded and run it again to see if it is a 3rd party module.

Thanks for replying!

I've checked my ircd.log, and the thing that repeats itself a few times throughout the file is:

Code: Select all

[Sun Dec  2 04:35:01 2007] - TIME SYNCH: timeserver=1196598901, our=1196598902, offset = -1 [old offset: 0]
What does this mean? It doesn't seem to be anything that could cause the IRC server to go down.

Thanks.

Nothing that's fine. The crash would have been indicated at the end of your ircd.log file.

If it crashed, you'll have a core file (ls -al *core*). You can then use:

Code: Select all

./unreal backtrace
and report it on http://bugs.unrealircd.org
