Title: Help Installing Module
Post by: Yurple on January 05, 2009, 07:49:40 PM

Ok so I'm new to installing Anope modules. I'd like to intall this (http://"http://modules.anope.org/viewmod.php?id=160") module for my server but I don't know how exactly to do it.

I'm using Anope1.7.21 and Unreal3.2.7

Also, Is there a way I can install the module using Filezilla? Instead of connecting through Putty?  - If so can someone help walk me through this.

Sorry for taking up your time. I've looked around on google and this site, but I can't seem to find out how exactly to do it.

Hi Yurple,

I'd advise you to upgrade to Anope 1.8.0 before carrying on as 1.7.21 is quite an old version now although still good it might be worth you looking at upgrading from a "Development" release to a "Stable" one.

Nonetheless; os_chgwhois.c which you linked to can be installed as follows:

Either Filezilla the os_chgwhois.c file to anope-1.7.21/src/modules (or it would be anope-1.8.0/src/modules)
Using PuTTY (yes you will need to or pm me and I'll have a look for you) cd to anope-1.7.21
make modules
make install

This will compile and install os_chgwhois.c to os_chgwhois.so and put it into the right place ~/services/modules normally.

You can then test this on IRC by using /msg operserv modload os_chgwhois and once you confirm it works OK, add it to services.conf to the ModulesAutoLoad section.


Any problems, either PM me on here, or drop into irc.anope.org #anope and someone'll help you :)
