• Can receive QWK messages, but can't send them.

    From Misfit@VERT/EMERALD to All on Monday, April 20, 2015 22:05:35
    This is the error I am getting:
    ---------------------------------
    Error log:

    Mon Apr 20 2015 09:55 pm bbs.emeraldhill.org
    ERROR 2 (No such file or directory) in un_qwk.cpp line 82 executing "unzip -Coj /sbbs/data/VERT.qw0 * -d /sbbs/temp/event/" access=1 -----------------------------------

    I ensure that FTP, ZIP, UNZIP were all installed. I also ensured that there were no port conflicts.

    Any help would be most appreciated.

    Thank you!

    please put unzip in /sbbs/exec and check your permissions

    I just answered this in the hardware/software help sub:

    "ERROR 2" means "file not found", so Synchronet is not able to
    execute "unzip". You can test this by simply using the ;SHELL sysop command and typing "unzip" and see if it executes. If it doesn't, that means you don't have 'unzip' in the search path of the enviornment in which you're running Synchronet (e.g. the user you login as or run the daemon as).

    Thanks digital man. I did what you suggested and I am able to execute zip and unzip fine. For good measure, I even put both of them in /sbbs/exec. I also ensured that FTP was working correctly. I can manually FTP to dove.synchro.net and download the vert.synchro.net file, however I still get the following error(s) when I allow synchronet to automatically do it (or ivoke it with ;CALL VERT).

    I am at a complete loss as to where the problem lays. Everything was working perfectly fine when I was running Raspbmc, it wasnt until I switched to OSMC that I started having this issue.

    WOW! It just "came to life" and is working now. "Talking" my way through it resolved it. It appeared there were TWO unzip files on my RPi. One was in /usr/bin/ (one that is working) and one was in just /bin ("BusyBox") that wasn't working corretly. I renamed that one and "tucked it away" somewhere safe.
    So it now appears that I am fully on DoveNet, can post and receive! Going to make a test post in General to make sure..
    Thanks!

    Congrats. I've been running mine on an R-Pi B+ since April 2013.
    It's powered by my ASUS firewall/router which is hooked up to the UPS used to power my cable modem so it almost never goes down except for late at night
    when it needs to reboot itself after installing Linux updates, which is rare. For those times mine is set to email me when it reboots so I know it happened. Never had an issue with QWK/DOVE-Net messaging, just Fidonet issues which I'm working on now since my previous Fidonet message provider server disappeared for a while.

    nifty idea! I also have an 802.11ac (T-Mobile branded) Asus router. It is runni just in AP mode as my main router is an Apple Airport TimeCapsule. Never thought about using the USB on it to power the Pi. Might as well as the Asus, Timecapsule, Mac, cable modem are all on UPS. I got the Asus for free from T-Mobile (they give them out for free if you are a T-Mobile customer). Its a great AP (or router). The 5ghz band is as fast, if not faster, than my Airport TimeCapsule!
