Hi Tom, I tried to add the beru: to the start of the file, and it gets read now (I also think it needs to be in the main contest directory, not the one with the rules in it), however I am getting the following error message:
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Welcome to tlf-1.4.0 by PA0R!! Reading country data Reading configuration data Reading config file: logcfg.dat Reading contest rules file: rules/beru*** buffer overflow detected ***: terminated Aborted +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ It is a long list of countries, but trimming it back doesn't help. Putting a short country list in the rules file does get read, but doesn't seem to affect scoring, all contacts are given 5 points (as I set with CWPOINTS=5), and also points for my call area while I set MY_COUNTRY_POINTS=0 Attached my config files. No panic, as I'm not relying on it for scoring points, it'd be nice to get it working though. Thanks, Gerard, ZL2GVA ________________________________ From: Thomas Beierlein <t...@forth-ev.de> Sent: Friday, March 4, 2022 10:14 AM To: Gerard van Antwerpen <gera...@cuddon.co.nz> Subject: Re: TLF logger, countrylist file format? Hi Gerard, I think there is one piece of information missing from the documentation: You have to start the line of countries with the name of the actual contest. That means if you have a line CONTEST=beru in your logcfg.dat than the countrylist line should read beru:<cty1>,<cty2>,..... You can put the line in a file and use COUNTRYLIST=<filename> or you can put the line directly into the COUNTRYLIST definition COUNTRYLIST=beru:...... If that does not help, please send us a copy of your logcfg.dat and the countrylist file. 73, de Tom P.S. I will be away for some days starting on Saturday. So if above suggestions do not work please contact the other OMs at TLFs mailing list (tlf-devel@nongnu.org). They will be glad to give some more advice.
