3 Q: The bot exits after I run 'factstats testing' or 'kernel' or anything
4 that uses fork(). Is this a bug in the bot?
6 A: No, this is not a bug in the bot but rather Net::IRC. A cheap hack is
7 to edit /usr/lib/perl5/Net/IRC/Connection.pm, search for DESTROY, and
8 comment out '$self->quit();'
9 A: Apply the patches in the patches/ directory.
12 Q: I notice that, in the bot logs, the bot attempts to close all current
13 DCC CHAT connections whenever a forked process ends. Why is this?
15 A: Yet another bug in Net::IRC. Currently, DCC CHAT connections are not
16 closed because there is an endless-loop bug when it is done.
19 Q: I executed 'scripts/setup_user.pl' but it said 'connection refused to
22 A: Looks like a bug in the installation of mysqld. You need to reload or
24 reload => 'mysqladmin -u root -p reload'
25 restart => '/etc/init.d/mysql stop; /etc/init.d/mysql start'
27 Q: How do I get my bot to automatically ask for OP's from chanserv?
29 A: By default, the "chanServCheck" option is off in _default. You can
30 set it on a per channel basis or as default. For example, the following
31 commands will enable asking for OP by default, except on #notmychannel
33 chanset _default chanServCheck 1
34 chanset #notmychannel chanServCheck 0
