I moved from from 64Bit to 32Bit... and then moved the BBS from a regular machine to a VM... and from what I can tell things are working... EXCEPT my dovenet is not sending and receiving via QWK...
ideas??
I'm not 100% sure, but one thing that I forgot was to make sure zip.exe & unzip.exe were in place. I don't use ZIP on any of my FTNs so they were just working, but DOVE-Net wasn't working for some reason. Once I put zip.exe & unzip.exe in place it just started working.
If you do have them in place, maybe make sure you don't have the 64bit windows .exe's now that you're running 32bit windows?
Again, not 100% sure what the issue is, but worth looking at.
You can get unzip.exe here:
ftp://ftp.info-zip.org/sys%24sysdevice/infozip/pub/infozip/win32/unz600dn.zip
And zip.exe here:
ftp://ftp.info-zip.org/sys%24sysdevice/infozip/pub/infozip/win32/zip300xn.zip
It looks like unzip.exe needs some .dll files (included in the archive) present in the same directory (or path) for it to function.
