What you could do is change the ioFTPD:messagewindow in ioFTPD.ini and then do the same in alcobot.conf

for example.

alcobot.conf
#### FTPD
msgWindow = ioFTPD::MessageWindow1

ioFTPD.ini
[Threads]
WindowName = ioFTPD::MessageWindow1
(if you dont have this option, simply just add it under threads).

Also how do you start ioftpd? do you use firedaemon maybe? This problem you have usally accurs when someones running eggdrop/ioftpd as a service. And if they dont start on the same windows account you get the errors you have.
If thats the case you can skip all of the above and simply type in the account name / password of your windows account in firedaemon in the settings window. If you dont use a windows login you can try try checking the box interact with desktop in firedaemon, just look around and youll find it. Do this on both the eggdrop / ioftpd service.

iam using ioservice to start my ioftpd. i also entered username and password of the windows account to bringt it up with ssl support. what i dont use is eggdrop as service.
as u wrote i renamed my ioftpd::messagewindow but i get the same error. any other suggestions?

[hukker]

you renamed them both in ioftpd.ini and alcobot.conf right?

remove io as a service.

Use firedaemon to run both ioFTPD and eggdrop as a service

i did but alcobot does not announce anything at all except the help :/

[lemonstar]

skipped alcobot and launchend dzsbot, it works fine besides one problem, i tried to invite my self by using the site command invite -nick-. it says everything works fine, but i dont get a invetation.

hehe.. this is not thread for dzsbot..

But, maybe u should try launching alcobot with -nt mode too..
In firedaemon, under parameters type: -nt
