UnrealIRCD help - error with modules.default.conf

I had UnrealIRCD installed before, but accidentally deleted it's
folder, so I had to reinstall it, no big deal. It install correctly
excpet I can't run it now. This is the error I get:

    Loading IRCd configuration..
    config error: ERROR: efunction 'do_nick_name' not found, you
probably did not load all required modules! (hint: see
modules.default.conf)
    config error: ERROR: efunction 'do_remote_nick_name' not found,
you probably did not load all required modules! (hint: see
modules.default.conf)
    config error: ERROR: efunction 'charsys_get_current_languages' not
found, you probably did not load all required modules! (hint: see
modules.default.conf)
    config error: IRCd configuration failed to pass testing

I can't find anything on [their
documentation](https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Main_page) about that
error, and google doesn't help me much with finding any resolve to my
errors. So maybe someone here might have a potential solution.

​

EDIT: Issue is resolved. I have a backup my conf folder so I copied
that over, which would have worked, except apparently the
modules.default.conf was changed a bit in version 4.2.0. So I copied
the original over from doc/conf/modules.default.conf, which took care
of it.

Credit goes to Gottem on the UnrealIRCD server.

1) What UnrealIRCd version are you using?
2) Is there any modules.default.conf inside "unrealircd/conf/"?
3) Probably pasting the config file somewhere (removing all the
sensitive data) would help to debug
4) You can also try to get help in irc.unrealircd.org at #unreal-
support channel

1. 4.2.0
2. 2. Yes there is a modules.default.conf file under
'unrealircd/conf/'
3. I will do that if it comes to it.
4. I didn't try that yet but I will do that now. Thank you.

After going into the IRC server for support, they were able to help
me. :) Thanks for that suggestion.

Oh I do. I've had it installed before, I just made a mistake and had
to reinstall it.

At least you had some backups :)
Although, when a new release gets out you should take a look at the
new files and configuration options and enhance/upgrade the older
configs to match the new ones :)
