I had my mud running before, it does this some times when I add new commands :( .. I had a whole lot of issues adding this last command as is evident by my forum postings.
But I do ./startup &
and I get this

[Josh@localhost src]$ ./startup &
[1] 8871
[Josh@localhost src]$ [1] 8873

[1]+  Done                    ./startup


When I do ps ux my mud is not running.
I can make it just fine, no errors and several warnings. I am trying to fox those warnings though. I have fixed most of them though, but a lot of them are beyond my knowledge.

~Josh

p.s if you need any code files or anything please let me know.
I am using Fedora core 12

It will not allow me to connect, as if my mud was not running at all.

Try running without the & and see if it errors out during startup?

Have you changed your startup script in any way, shape or form? Maybe you could post it here for others to look at. The fact that it "does this some times" can't be a good thing and that error looks bad even to me, and I'm not a programmer.

This is a problem loading data from a file. Can you paste all of the errors? What exactly did you change, code-wise?

That is the only error I get. I have added a lot to the code, roughly 5 commands and a fight database.

Do you want the warnings I get when I compile ?

Does it say what file it is trying to read from? Isn't there a boot log somewhere you can show us?

Did you modify any files it needs to load? Did you modify the loading code itself?

Well, did you modify anything besides source files (those with the .c/.h extension)? Such as when you were adding commands?

You would probably know if you modified the loading code, though it depends on what features you have been adding.

This is an example of why it is generally best to add one thing at a time, that way, when it breaks, you know which file to turn to for fixing :)

I add one command at a time ... but I modified several source files adding this command in. And no I did not modify any aside from source files.
