IrssiNotifier: couldn't fork - abort #176

Closed AmyAmy closed 8 years ago

Hi,

I can't get hilights to work:

when loading the script i get:

Use of uninitialized value $screen_ls in pattern match (m//) at /home/amy/.irssi/scripts/irssinotifier.pl line 466. Use of uninitialized value $screen_ls in pattern match (m//) at /home/amy/.irssi/scripts/irssinotifier.pl line 467. Script: Loaded script irssinotifier.

(I am running irssi in screen and running LC_ALL="C" screen -ls 2> /dev/null in bash works fine)

Then, everytime there is a hilight, I get:

IrssiNotifier: couldn't fork - abort

Fixed: giving my machine a reboot fixed the issue, probably something to do with Python being updated while irssi was running. Just restarting irssi would perhaps have been enough.
