Windows Server Installer :: Modular & Scripted

[andy5427]

Thanks Akkadius, I just installed your wonderful re-pack a week ago. I think I should have held off a week for this.

Now if I could just figure out how to make my ROF client connect to it... lol.

I'm a bit new at this but wouldn't the answer be to run the updater which has an option to add all the opp codes. I used it on an old server on another machine I made last year. It worked and even added ROF2.

I'm prolly newer than you are LOL. I finally changed the listening port in login.ini from 5998 to 5999 and am able to see and login to my server now. Everything seems fine except there is no sound when I cast spells. Now, I'm trying to figure out how to find and use GM commands and How to add pet toys to a merchant.

Check HERE on the wiki for GM commands.

For editing merchants and such I prefer to use the PEQ database editor. You can either install the PHP app yourself and run it on a local web server or connect to Akka's EOC. I prefer the latter as it lets me get to my db from just about anywhere as well as having some other useful tools.


Now to my install...

Installed it to a Surface Pro (the original version 1) with an external USB drive running Windows 10 Pro.

Install worked like a charm.

Server starts with no problems and I'll be attempting to login later this morning once I get a client setup to connect to that box.

Only issue I see are a couple of errors when the login server launches but it seems to be listening so I'm not sure they're critical.

Errors are:
1. [Error] Handle_NewLSInfo error, remote address was null, defaulting to stream address 127.0.0.1.

2. [Error] Mysql query returned no result: SELECT ifnull(WSR.ServerID,999999) AS ServerID... {not going to write out the entire query string here unless you need it.}

After those 2 errors I get the "Server tried to login but database couldn't find an entry but unregistered servers are allowed" message that I always have on my functioning server.

Once I get a client setup I'll try connecting and let you know how that works but the server itself seems to be functioning.

UPDATE:
Adding a new user account to the login server table got rid of my second error but I'm still geting the first one.

From my main desktop I can connect to the login server and get to server select but once I click play it goes to a black screen and just sits there (RoF2 client) or goes to "Not Responding" and I have to end the task (Underfoot Client).

Running the UF client locally seems to work just fine though so I'm probably missing something to allow remote connections.

Thanks for the info. I found the GM commands shortly after my last post. I'm gonna look into PEQ editor and Akka's EOC.


Now maybe I can return the favor.

Errors are:
1. [Error] Handle_NewLSInfo error, remote address was null, defaulting to stream address 127.0.0.1.

I get this on mine also but I can still log in and play (at least on local machine) All my config files are set up for my lan IP instead of localhost. I'm using ROF client. The only way I got it to work was to change the listening port in login.ini to port 5999 since ROF uses that port instead of 5998. With it set to 5998 I get the black screen lockup you describe.

I'm about to copy my client to my sons pc and see if I can log in across my lan.
I'll let ya know if it works.

FYI I'm running a private server local/lan only using private login server.

EDIT:
Client on son's pc working great. Can connect across LAN.

Yeah changing the address to point to the actual port instead of the loopback fixed that error.

The second error - the query returned null error seemed to be fixed by adding an actual user to the login tables. Can't believe I forgot that part.

Once I got past all of that I was still getting the lockup after server select from the remote machine. Went through and specified the IP of the server machine, rebooted and ran the update pl script just to be sure and now it seems to be working fine.


Akkadius is there any chance of providing an option for bot installs?
