Title: Anope not starting.
Post by: abc123 on April 03, 2009, 12:40:31 PM

Okay, when I'm in SSH I do: ./anoperc start. Well, after that I do: ./anoperc status, and it says that Anope is not currently running, although I didn't get any error messages when doing the first command.

I am also wondering why Anope won't update/rehash and read my new services.conf file, which gets me errors when rehashing unrealircd.conf like "No link block found for Server...", etc., etc.

Please help me, as this has been bugging me for a few days, and if you have any questions please feel free to ask.

Thanks in advance.

I assume you have anope 1.7 or 1.8 as you've posted in this section ? in which case the command to start services is ./services
Could you paste your unreal link block and services link also.

Is Anope actually connected to your IRCd? If not, check the log files in the logs directory for errors from Anope. You won't actually get errors when you run anoperc or services at the command line, they are all logged to the log files.

I'm pretty sure it's not the link block(s). I need my services.conf file to be re-read/rehashed so it can update. The problem is, when I do ./services in SSH, in my IRC client it says the IRC server link can not be found. Is there another way to rehash the services.conf file?

I'm pretty sure it is the link blocks or some other problem where your ircd and services configs aren't matching each other...
If anope fails to connect to the IRCd, it shuts itself down as it can't run standalone, it needs an uplink to remain running. Therefore everytime you run ./services anope starts afresh and on every startup it reads the services.conf file.. so any changes you may have made are always read on fresh startup.

Here is my link block in unrealircd.conf:

Code: [Select]

link services.mydomain.com
{
username services@mydomain.com;
hostname 72.8.156.12;
bind-ip *;
port 7555;
hub             *;
password-connect "Removed.";
password-receive "Same as first removed password.";
class           servers;
options {
ssl;
}; };
Also, my server still isn't updated to my new unrealircd.conf. It's using old information, such as the old server name, oper password, etc.

Remove the whole 'options' block. You can't use zlib, ssl or autoconnect anyways.
