hi, i've got a problem getting the bopm working - when i set it up it didn't
have a .pid file and so gave an error on startup
i get this in the logs:

MAIN -> BOPM 3.1.3 started.
MAIN -> Reading configuration file...
CONFIG -> Loading /root/bopm/etc/bopm.conf
MAIN -> Error opening /bopm/bin/bopm.pid: No such file or directory

ok that's fixable - normally - i first made a .pid file in a text file and
upped that to the server where it's needed and tried to start bopm then -
failed

MAIN -> BOPM 3.1.3 started.
MAIN -> Reading configuration file...
CONFIG -> Loading /root/bopm/etc/bopm.conf
MAIN -> Error opening /bopm/bin/bopm.pid: No such file or directory

then i tried making a .pid file using " touch"  that too resulted in the
same error message.

i looked at the error message again and decided that perhaps the error was
cos if the file path - so changed it - still no joy

MAIN -> BOPM 3.1.3 started.
MAIN -> Reading configuration file...
CONFIG -> Loading /root/bopm/etc/bopm.conf
MAIN -> Error opening root/bopm/bin/bopm.pid: No such file or directory

i have this in the config file (when i changed the path i changed it here in
the config as well  btw - just to clarify) :

options {
    pidfile = "/bopm/bin/bopm.pid";
    dns_fdlimit = 64;
};

the " root" folder isn't the actual root but a subfolder called root (not my
choice but what i have to work with)

it's for an ircd - unreal3.2 -

i'd appriciate any help with this as i'm stuck

Thanks !

Magical.
