Server installation woes...

Postby yubin on July 17th, 2012, 12:35 pm

Hello Everyone, I'm running into a few separate issues trying to setup a server. I've tried linux and Windows setups both unsuccessful.
I'll start with the Windows setup first seeing as I've spent the most time on it.

Windows 7 64bit and Windows 8 64bit
Ran all of the required installs except VS 12 RC instead of 11.
When running cmake, I get errors saying the the C:/Pythion32/libs folder must contain libs. Which it does.
I've confirmed C:/Python32 is added to the PATH and I've tried both options for cmake in the install guide. I've tried reinstalling VS and re-downloading the build numerous times. Always with the same errors. I've even reloaded the OS 3 times with a fresh install with no success. I'm not sure where to go from here. The only hiccup i saw in the installation docs that are provided is when adding a directory to the PATH, the suggestions use a "/" and Windows utilizes a "\" for the existing entries. Could this be the issue?

Linux (Ubuntu Server):
The install went fine until I had to configure the swhanh.cfg Pointing to a live.cfg. Not sure what the path should look like. The guide mentions copying an swg install from a windows machine, but doesn't go into detail. Maybe if someone can PM me and walk me through how to copy the game to a valid directory or something and then configure the file? I've copied the folders over previously, but was unsuccessful at getting the server to start up, so I think I did it wrong. Obviously I'm a noob on linux. I know some basics, and can fumble my way across a setup. Just not well versed enough to hash this out.
This is what I get for linux when I try to start up the server:(I ran the tests first)

I'd prefer to run Linux just because it's not such a resource hog.

Intel P6200 2.13Ghz

Ok, so after two more reloads, I was able to install the Windows version without issue. When I attempt to start the server it crashes immediately. Any ideas?

run the server from the commnd prompt and see what is going on.

also make sure to run command prompt as administrator.

Make sure your SQL database is setup completely and all config files are in order.
Server doesn´t have a nice error message as of yet when it cant find the DB.. it just dies.
Took a while to figure that out with the help of some people on IRC :)
