Can't connect to your server? Read this.

[chumpywumpy]

here are my logs plz check them im in serious need :*:

The nationwar ones? How is the server going to get war results when you have not yet run TG? Ignore them or run TG at least once to create some results.

The other can be ignored. When the server starts the processes they are being a bit slow to start and some come up earlier than others and fail to connect to other processes until the have started.

ty chumpy i am using the test channel (11) on that so no tg and cypher i got them at server boot cuz i cant log in also i meant

There is too much unrelated info in the logs and i need to see a full set showing the login process so i can track the attempt through the files.

Do a "service cabal stop" and delete the logs from /var/log/cabal. Now do a "service cabal start" and try logging in two or three times. Now zip those logs and post them and they will contain only the info i need and nothing extra to confuse me (which is easy to do ).

 

[Ppast]

cant login but will do

here is the only log that gave me an error stupidly before it connected to the db -.-

 

[cypher]

you kinda forgot about the error.

 

[Ppast]

nah i didnt forgot i was editing the post -.- well lol here is the true log of the error since the db one was just my win xp to centos connection disabled -.- ops sry for the new post

 

[carlos666]

WAN IP check called but is disabled

i got this message when i start the cabal service it's an error?
all services start ok but the client can't connect to my server
windows pings the centos and centos pings windows

using the mssql code i got a message
instance path = NULL
Remote connections enabled? = NULL

here are my logs, i hope you can help me please

All i can tell from that is that the worldsvr took a little time to connect to other services. There is one error that has an ip address i wouldn't expect, check AddrForServer= in your worldsvr ini as it should be 127.0.0.1 and i think it isn't.

Thw wancheck message can be ignored it is just an info message, mainly so i know it is still being called if disabled (for debugging).

Are you using sql2000? I would expect that output from 2000 but not 2005. The server can't connect to the db and the usual reason for that is sql2005 express being configured wrong, either as a named instance or having remote connections disabled.

If you have 2000 check the windows firewall is off (it should be as the ping works), the mssql serice is running (if you can open query analyser it is so i doubt it is that) and the ip address in /etc/odbc.ini is correct.

If using 2005 check remote connections are enabled in the surface area config tool and see if "\sqlexpress" appears in the server name at the top left of management studio.

OK, now i logged in and i see the channel. but i cant get in the channel.
do you had the same problem ?

 

[Ppast]

ty for ur help chumpy i got it to work with no errors the prob is that no matter what i do i cant login (do i have to do something like networking/port fowarding)

I need to see logs as it could be any one of a dozen reasons. See first post for instructions.

This depends entirely on what sort of setup you have (router/modem). Again logs are needed.

 

[Ppast]

here they go(logs) also i forgot to tell u im using a vmware for mssql and other for centos and both connect to the net through the same lan connection which is recieving net from me so if u could tell me a way to login would be wonderfull also i already used saurons,darkxl logins patch sync and a gameguard patch so i hope i made myself clear and i dont think there are any errors on those logs previnting me from login but judge for yourself, thanks

 

[schafx]

[carlos666]

CabalAuth.rar
just one error in the worldsvr_01_01.ini
i have used the CabalAuth.rar file replacing the files in the linux centos
is just one error only one for connect!
here are my new logs -.-! again hehehe but are different now with only one error

worldsvr_01_01.log message
[##ERROR##] remoteAddr(127.0.0.1), connectRetryNum_(9,0), serverAddr(127.0.0.1:38170)

You don't need the cabalauth with my files as it is already included.

I can't see any connection attempts in your logs so the client is not even getting that far. If you are using the batch file to load the client and internal.txt is correct then it must be your network settings.

If you have a router try LAN addresses first in case your router isn't capable of hosting (not all are) to be sure your config is correct and when that works switch back to the WAN address.

If you only have a modem then it's your vmware network settings and you probably didn't forward ports under the vmware network adapter.

Look at my vmware networking guide at
