Forums Bug Reports possible readini bug.

i am running windows xp pro no update packages using mirc 6.03 i found running the following script
joinchans {
var %o = 1
while ( %o <= $ini(mirc.ini, chanfolder, 0) ) {
join $readini(mirc.ini, chanfolder, $ini(mirc.ini, chanfolder, %o))
inc %o
}
}

gives [10053] Software caused connection abort after a few minutes of being connected to a server.

Umm of course. That will potentially flood the server like crazy. What if your channel folder had 100+ channelsl in it? First off most servers only allow you to join ~10, and second, most servers are going to kill you for flooding if you send that many commands.

Chan folder has feature join channel on connect? Why don't you use that?

i have 5 channels in my list.

How is your ini set up?

Hopefully its something like:

[Chanfolder]
somevalue=#Chan1
someothervalue=#Chan2

Not:

[Chanfolder]
#chan1=somevalue
#chan2=someothervalue

my mIRC comes with 65 channels in [chanfolder]
section. its the default- mayb its in ur mIRC.ini file in different location than u checked- can u changle the [chanfolder] to something else?
try 2 double click on ur connection icon and use windows activity monitor 2 count how many packets mIRC sent.

try using:
alias join {
if ($1 == $null) return
echo -a *** Joining $1-
join $1-
}
so it will monitor how many 'join' commands ur script sends.

I don't use the channels dialog, so that may be the reason. I never have probably never will. >:D
