i'm starting sbbs with sudo so it will bind to the ports, tried the
same with jsexec which I would thing would make no difference and it
did'nt.

Did you try setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH?

Yeah, no good.. also noticed that setting SBBSCTRL is'nt working either, SBBS has just been forcing it, I've set it in ~.profile ~.bashrc and even /etc/profile. I don't know what I've done to scew this up.. all permissions have been checked, all executables came from a clean build with a copy over of my ctrl data mods and all other modified stuff.


But this issue has happened a while, SCFG works, of course sbbs works

To what? I've never had to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH for anything Synchronet related. Only husky stuff (hpt, htick, fidoconf, etc.)

I never have either, but when DM tells me to, I do :)

If everything in /sbbs is owned by a user, and he's starting with sudo, maybe he's not passing ownership properly via sbbs.ini? This would mean he would probably need sudo for jsexec too.

thought the same, tried it.. no go..

SBBSEXEC environment variable not set?

thought sbbs takes care of this now??

will set it just to be safe.

I don't know, but I've never had to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH for Synchronet.

nor have I, and have rarely even heard of it..

Regards,
Nick

Thanks for your help.

Yeah, no good..

Can you elaborate? So from a command prompt, you typed
"export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/directory/where/libsbbs.so/is"
and then from the same same command prompt, typed "jsexec" and what happened?

also noticed that setting SBBSCTRL is'nt working either,
SBBS has just been forcing it, I've set it in ~.profile ~.bashrc and even /etc/profile. I don't know what I've done to scew this up.. all permissions have been checked, all executables came from a clean build with a copy over of my ctrl data mods and all other modified stuff.

"came from" - does that mean the files were copied or moved?

Is the user you're running jsxec as, the same user you used to build sbbs as?

But this issue has happened a while, SCFG works, of course sbbs works

SCFG doesn't rely on any Synchronet .so files.
