• socket error 111 on linux

    From Wkitty42@VERT to digital man on Monday, December 16, 2019 05:59:27
    NOTE: i had originally posted this in Synchronet Sysops on my system, sestar, but it seems to have gotten lost on the way to vert... so i tried to post it in there on vert but i don't seem to have access to that area... since it may be more related to sync programming, i'm reposting it in here from vert...

    ----- original post starts here -----
    i'm not sure what this means... could we somehow get an additional translation of the error code into human understandable verbiage in the logging output?

    the timestamps are eastern time (UTC -0500)...

    i had written one message and then ran ";CALL VERT"... the above is the end of that transaction...

    question: will the message that is currently packed and waiting to go still be sent when more messages are written and packed or will the REP be overwritten? this message being one test of that... just not sure since this is the only
    QWK networking i've ever done...
    ----- original message ends -----

    as it turns out, i ended up having to repost both messages on vert... no clue what happened for them to be lost :(

    cvs.synchro.net is refusing ftp connections. As a temporary fix change dove.sycnrho.net to vert.synchro.net in your timed events until it's fixed
    to stop the error, or you could maybe add dove.synchro.net to point to verts
    ip if you'd rather do that. This is something DM would need to fix tho.

    Assuming Linux:
    /usr/include/asm-generic/errno.h:#define ECONNREFUSED 111 /* Connection refused */

    i had written one message and then ran ";CALL VERT"... the above is the end of that transaction...

    REP packets will be appended with new messages. They're only deleted after being sent to the hub successfully.
