Need help with a small error

I am trying to get my tarball from an old server to run on a new server so I can keep all my old data (previous provider no longer does ircds)

I ftp'd my tars up and extracted , etc

Im sure this question has been answered time and time again, and if so I do apologize. I looked through and didnt come up with the answer, though I am sure it is most likely there. I went thru ./Config and the rest, with no obvious problems, but when it came time to start, I got this error:

Code: Select all

Starting UnrealIRCd
./unreal: /usr/home/everb0ng/Unreal3.2.7/src/ircd: not found
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: /usr/home/everb0ng/Unreal3.2.7/ircd.log: No such file or directory
So, i went and looked, and there is no ircd dir inside of /src , however there IS an /Unreal3.2.7/ircd.log which contains a large amount of data, the 1st line reads :Max file size reached, starting new log file

im sure im just missing something. All help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your time and patience.

More Info..

i do remember noticing while running ./Config

I believe it was the 2nd line where it asks to specify a path blah/blah/blah/src/ircd

i did just hit enter there out of blind ignorance.. wasnt sure what file/dir it was looking for .. perhaps this info may help you help me?

man.. i thought that had got it.. seemed like it worked BUT

Code: Select all

The OS enforces a limit on max open files
Hard Limit: 350 MAXCONNECTIONS: 1024
Fix MAXCONNECTIONS
Possible error encountered (IRCd seemingly not started)
any new thoughts?
