after running the ircdcfg.js config script I did not get a working ircd.ini, it could be something I did, or did'nt do. I dunno, I refreshed my ircd.ini with the one in repo and then ran the ircdcfg script. did not see anything in the wiki on what steps to use in the configuration itself, so just kinda went through the steps provided and below is the complete product of that. when I found that it did'nt work I looked at the ircd.ini in the repo and copied the missing info over to make it work correctly.
