Hi all,ããToday I updated my files in sbbs/xtrn from the Synchronet CVS repository, and Iãset up Synchronetris on my BBS. I have a JavaScript command shell which callsãbbs.xtrn_sec() to go into the external programs area. When I try to runãSynchronetris, I get an error, apparently from bbs.xtrn_sec() (based on theãreported line number in my command shell) that says "uncaught exception: socketãdisconnected". Does anyone know what might cause that?ããNightfoxãã---ã þ Synchronet þ Digital Distortion BBS - digitaldistortionbbs.comã

I'd think that would be the most logical place for documentationãfor all that is needed to set up the door game.ããNightfoxãã---ã þ Synchronet þ Digital Distortion BBS - digitaldistortionbbs.comã

Pretty much everyãJSON-DB enabled game in the CVS defaults to looking for a JSON server atã'localhost' by default now.ãã---ãechickenãelectronic chicken bbs - bbs.electronicchicken.com - 416-273-7230ã þ Synchronet þ electronic chicken bbs - bbs.electronicchicken.comã
