I am having a bit of trouble starting unreal.

When I type in ./unreal start (or unreal start) I get the following error:

Starting UnrealIRCd
chdir: No such file or directory
ERROR: Unable to change to directory 'Unreal3.2'
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

Does anyone have any idea why this won't work?

I think you specified a non-default path in the 2nd and 3rd questions of ./Config. Only change them if you know what you're doing. Those paths must be absolute ("Unreal3.2" is a relative path!), and if you change the default path settings, you must do a "make install", or your server won't run.

I suggest you to rerun ./Config with the proper path settings (default ones are really recommended, that is, the same directory where the ./Config script is located), then do a "make clean", a "make", and finally "./unreal start".

in this same topic: on XP, you must do "Run As"

What? I have no idea what you are talking about, nor what your problem is (john).

But Alai is apparently using *NIX.
