    I keep getting the below error. I can't even find a file named "exec.cpp" in the sbbs directory. Any ideas?

    ERROR 2 (No such file or directory) (WinError 2) in exec.cpp line 813 (sbbs_t::exec_bin) executing "prextrn" access=0 info=module doesn't exist

    sbbs.cpp is one of the C++ source files for Synchronet and is located in src\sbbs3 in the Git repository (it wouldn't be included with the Synchronet binaries).
    This is on line 813 of exec.cpp (at least in my current copy):
    errormsg(WHERE, ERR_EXEC, mod, 0, "module doesn't exist");

    Looking at the source code around that line, it looks like it's trying to run a .bin (Baja module) or .js script but it can't find the file for it.

    It's trying to execute the "prextrn" module (usually exec/prextrn.js). Sounds like your exec directory is not up to date.

    Hmmm...I'll check that out. Thanks.
