Debian Wiki Updates/Tweaks

Success! I am going to have some fun now and see if there is anything else I missed.

This may sound dumb but I would add a line in the wiki about checking and running required updates. I had just assumed that the db was fully updated because it was a fresh download, but now I know different I will continue to report any findings.

I think the issue is that cavedude can't always update the server so the DB might be missing an update sometimes :P

No suggestions are dumb, my goal with my step by steps is to make it easy even as a non-linux guru. I'll probably hit this up when I get home late tonight.

thanks for all your hard work hayward!
And thanks to all other developers with any tips they have about my build process. I took in your steps demonstar55 to ensure their implementation was included on mine.

Yes, it is a serious goal to make getting a server setup easy and keep it easy. It is something I look to be addressing fairly soon here. So Shin's contribution to the Linux guide is amazing.

Thanks all

So, now that internal things seem to be working properly. Here is a short list of the management issues I am having.

1. cannot access http to manage server. I have the 9080 port forwarded but it just doesn't seem to even acknowledge a listening application, so I never get to a login screen (I used to like this portal for a quick description of who is logged on and for the ability to lock and unlock the server remotely)
2. phpeditor is still messed up, but I just remembered that I never sourced in the new sql statement from the proper database.
3. everytime I zone I see a message in red about the chat channel being disconnected. This might be nothing, but I did see another thread that mentioned changing the address in the emu config from channel.eqemulator.net to the host address. I changed it to 127.0.0.1 and I haven't seen any change in that. Chat seems to be working fine though...
