    I use mystic BBS A38 on a raspberry Pi.
    My problem is that the event manager is not working properly.

    Can you post the output of the MIS server when an event is called?
    What type of event is failing to run?

    Best, Paul

    an example: fidopoll forced | mutil mutil.ini.

    If this is your command line then this is not correct. His example is in Windows. In Unix, you need to specify the path. So:

    ./fidopoll forced | ./mutil mutil.ini

    Try that. And it would be helpful to know what the log or messages window says when the event runs. It will give you an error code. In your case I would guess it says "127" which as far as bash errors go is a "path not found"
    error (because no path is specified on your command line).

    Hi...
    I use mystic BBS A38 on a raspberry Pi.
    My problem is that the event manager is not working properly.
    I'm trying to set up an event for the Fidopoll and the Mutil, I used Mystic Guy's Youtube tutorials, unfortunately the event is not working. It is
    executed according to mis server but apparently does not do what it should.
    In the case of an event manager in the shell section, I have an example: fidopoll forced | mutil mutil.ini.


    Can someone help ?

    When I ran the PI version, I never use Mystic's event scheduler. I
    always set up all my BBS-related events (such as fidopoll and mutil
    commands) via a crontab and it always worked out very well.

    Hello Michael,

    I use mystic BBS A38 on a raspberry Pi.
    My problem is that the event manager is not working properly.

    In the case of an event manager in the shell section, I have an example: fidopoll forced | mutil mutil.ini.

    Try including the path to the executables. As in either:

    ./fidopoll forced | ./mutil mutil.ini

    Or:

    /home/<full path>/fidopoll forced | /home/<full path>/mutil mutil.ini

    Awesome, glad you have it working :)

    One way to think about it is if you cant type the command like while sitting
    in a terminal in "/mystic/" then it won't work from the Event system :)

    New-ish sysop finding his way around the system, and even though I *know* that's how linux needs to execute programs, it never dawned on me that the default event text was for Windows (I'm on a Pi)!

    I know this post is old, but just wanted to note I had the same problem and this solved it. Hope it helps someone else.

    And I don't know where I'd be without Paul's YouTube videos. So helpful.
