ircd.log

Hello,
When I try to boot up Unreal, this error shows up:

Code: Select all

                     using TRE 0.7.5 (LGPL)
                     using OpenSSL 0.9.8c 05 Sep 2006

* Loading IRCd configuration ..
* Configuration loaded without any problems ..
* Initializing SSL.
Possible error encountered (IRCd seemingly not started)
=====================================================
Check above for possible errors, and this output of
ircd.log. If you cannot solve the problem, read
Unreal.nfo on where to get support
=====================================================
tail: cannot open `/home/me/TEST/TEST/ircd.log' for reading: No such file or directory
Yet when I create an empty ircd.log file using vim, the "tail: cannot open..." disappears but the ircd still doesn't boot up but writes nothing in the ircd.log I created, therefore keeping me from knowing what happened.

Also, here is what my logs settings look like in unrealircd.conf:

Code: Select all

// Network Log Files
log "logs/connect.log" {
        maxsize 1GB;
        flags { connects; };
};

log "logs/ircd.log" {
        maxsize 1GB;
        flags {
                server-connects;
                errors;
        };
};

log "logs/command.log" {
        maxsize 1GB;
        flags {
                kills;
                kline;
                oper;
                tkl;
                sadmin-commands;
                chg-commands;
                oper-override;
        };
};

log "logs/spamfilter.log" {
        maxsize 1GB;
        flags { spamfilter; };
};
I looked around on google about that error and the results are very few and none of them had the right solution so far, so I turn to you.

Many thanks in advance,
Arok

Did you create the logs/ directory that you used in the log block paths?

Also, since you dont use "ircd.log" or "./ircd.log" for a log block path, you can safely ignore the "tail" error when using "./unreal start"
