Post by techy_2012 »

Ok I install Unreal v3.2 and Config is already made and edit for my server. When I try to boot IRC ./unreal start command in linux I beleave with Root Access I gotten this message here

Code: Select all

 ./unreal start
Starting UnrealIRCd
ERROR: do not run ircd setuid root. Make it setuid a normal user.
Possible error encountered (IRCd seemily 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
what am I doing wrong? Thanks for any help! :) Searching for this answer is pretty hard.
Thanks,
Andrew

yes, its because of root access. don't run ircd and services under root account, create a seperate user and all will be fine.
