Check Setup

The Synchronet Check Setup module can check your Synchronet setup (configuration and data) for common sysop omissions, mistakes, or deprecated configuration settings that may remain from an older installation. When run, the Check Setup module will report any discovered issues on the console.

After any configuration changes or updates, it is highly recommended to run the Synchronet Check Setup module. Or just run it periodically for good measure.

Note:
No changes are made to your setup by the Check Setup module. It only reports on potential issues the sysop should be aware of.

Invocation

Run the Check Setup module using JSexec like so:

jsexec chksetup.js

Options

The available command-line options are:

Option Description
-v Provide verbose (detailed) output about discovered issues
