Hi,

The setup.py reads intelmq/bots/BOTS file during installation and installs all bots as script. intelmqctl and others are installed in the same manner.

Which operating system are you using? Which version of intelmq are you using? Please show the output of `pip3 list`. Where is intelmqctl located? Which other intelmq.* files are there? What was the complete (!) output of the mentioned commands?

Without more information I really can't help. I am not a fortuneteller. Unfortunately.

Sebastian

- pip3 install . (with and withou -e option)

- python3 setup.py install

with simmilar degree of success that is not having the deffinitions in /usr/local/bin/

intelmqctl wtih bot id sais following:
intelmqctl: Starting xxxx-parser...
intelmqctl: xxxx-parser failed to START because the file cannot be found.

I had the definition in BOTS and configs, the files were there as specified by the path. It was suggested to me that that the definitons in /usr/local/bin/"bot path" were missing which indeed was true but creating the respective files solved some issues and created some more as it happens.

You created the files /usr/local/bin/intelmq.bots... manually? Better let them created by installing intelmq with pip. After adding new bots, you need to run the installation method again. It creates the executables in the bin-directory for you.

The intelmqctl now recognizes the bots and runs them, but when I try to stop the bot it displays that the bot wasn't running.

What does `intelmqctl run bot-id` show?
