Perl plugin help!
 

Hi all,


I've recently got a server up and working and have just started writing my own small scripts for NPCs. I've noticed that some of my own and many existing NPC quests do not work. Bear in mind I know very little (read nothing) about Perl or MySQL etc.

On examination, it seems any quest using a 'plugin' is not working - hailing the NPC has no response. I'm assuming I'm missing plugin files? Could someone tell me where these should be, and what I've missed please? :) I see a 'plugin' folder in my server files directory, which is empty apart from KEEP.pl. Should there be more in there?

NB For reference, I had trouble during installation, getting the usual Perl-related errors when first running the server. I tried a couple of versions before reading on the boards that the one to use was Activeperl 5.8.9 Ver 824. This worked fine but I've just noticed this problem.

Please help!

No worries - I think I found the problem. I found a 'plugin' subfolder within the quest folder of my server files. This had several files which I copied to the 'plugin' folder of the server files (which was empty). Not sure if these installed like that when I checked them out, or I messed about with them afterwards.

Soulbinders will now talk to me :) Yay!
