Re: 3.20b upgrade question

Hi team Sync,

After following the readme.txt file and running jsexec update i get a pop-up when running synchronet that asks for the main.ini location. When changing the popup to the correct drive i get an error loading the config error and sync exits.

Any ideas? I'm sure i'm doing or did something that will merit a slaping ;)

Either set your SBBSCTRL environment variable to the correct location of your Synchronet ctrl directory ("d:\sbbs\ctrl") or enter the path to the ctrl directory (not the filename) when prompted.

sbbsctrl.exe was supposed to strip off the "main.ini" part if you provided it in the prompt, but that logic is broken I see.
