This is the error i get when I run znc from the /.znc/ folder. Anyone know what's wrong? No changes has been made, just a server reboot and this happens. Cheers!

Why are you using ZNC 1.2.x shouldn't you be using 1.6.x?

@wolfy1339 Thanks for reply. That's the strange thing. I downloaded and installed the newest version a month ago (been running stable on IRC). Even the config file says Version = 1.6.3 (?!).

How did you install 1.6.3?
You also have installed 1.2.
Check znc --version,
which znc is likely to return /usr/bin/znc, that's the version from your OS distribution, you should remove it to reduce the confusion.
Depending on how you installed 1.6.3, probably it's in /usr/local/bin/znc.
