Question

!rss not working in channel

Opened this issue 10 years ago · 5 comments

I can query my bot with !rss and get a response with all available feeds. But if I do the same in the channel where the bot is posting its feeds, I wont get a response for !rss but for !.

Any ideas?

telnet to your bot. it may be a tcl error.

Having the same issue. Amongst others.
When i open a chat with the bot and do !rss i see that !slashdot is available
But when i do !slashdot, there is nothing. I also cannot find the database file anywhere :O

Tuumke, you need to check the settings file and see where the database is set to. Try setting an absolute path, so, instead of ./scripts/feeds/slashdot.db or whatever, try /home/NAME/eggdrop/feeds/slashdot.db or whatever absolute path you see fit, so long as it is writable, ie chmod 777 /home/NAME/eggdrop -R.

Good luck

Solution: The script creates automaticly the files after a time.
