It looks like many many files are missing that should not be. Run cabal_install.sh again and look for any errors when it gets to the part where it copies the ep2 files.

Am i wrong on my methods on how to restore backup?
It sounds very much like you either backed up wrong or restored a clean db over the one with the accounts in it. If the copy with the accounts in has gone then you have lost them. You can find several tutorials on backing up databases using google of msdn:

[Only Registered and Activated Users Can See Links. Click Here To Register...]

Another solution is to stop the mssqlserver service and then make copies of the .mdf and .ldf files in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\Data. To restore them copy them back, right-click Databases and use the database "attach" option under "All tasks" to re-attach them. I don't really recommend this method though as it can cause problems though.

have a look at the image:


I have Circled that thing....

So it goes like this ... when I go for creating a new char... I type any name that symbol occurs(which I circled)..
and after clicking on the Create button nothing happens.....

When I log out and login then I m able to c that char...


Also I more thing when I logout and login .. It takes 2-3 attempt to get into the server...

I got few errors in logs. .As u said u need all log files ..so I am posting it....

Please tell me where I am wrong..and wat I need to do to fix this bug....

I am Using GP-Cabal...
Oops, i did miss that one.

I don't recognise that symbol in the screenshot. I have not seen it using the GP client and either darkxl's or SAUR0N's login patches. Which login patch do you use with your client?

You do have some very strange errors there too and parts of the server keep disconnecting from globalmgrsvr and globaldbagent. I would probably suggest finding me on msn (check my "contact info" tab on my profile). The other thing i would try doing is stopping the services and deleteing all logfiles, now start the services again and do nothing. Do not try logging in and don't even tough your PC. After 10-15 minutes check the fresh logs and see if any of those errors reappear as if the processes keep disconnecting all by themselves you can rule the login attempts out as the cause.

There are a few db related errors in DBAgent which do not look good either and i need to see if it fails to get the war details a lot as that would indicate problems talking to the db, which it can do most of the time. Definitely try your "sa" logon instead of one you created as an "sa" logon should never have permissions problems in the db.

That should be perfect but for some reason most of the files cabal_config.sh is looking for can't be found and cabal_install.sh should have copied them. It can't be permissions if you are root (which you are).

Nice guide and server stuff but i gt some problem at the winscp part how some1 can help.
My ip address is 192.168.1.x so i but the centos ip address as 192.168.1.18 and i think its not inuse.
Then i put the user as root and my password as the root password. and i gt this "Network error: Connection timed out."
I have left out the DNS in the centos installation on the vmare cause ur guide says not needed

Im checking out the first 19 pages of this post to see if the solution is posted......

192.168.1.18 - ip
255.255.255.0 - mask
192.168.1.254 - gateway
192.168.1.254 - dns

Hope it helps,

There is no publicly available cash shop yet and the cash shop is the only thing you need to hex edit for. What errors are you getting with cash items?

Hey guys,

Noob here..and I need your help. It took me 2 days but I was finally able to set up the database as well as the server. I'm currently situated in a LAN using one PC to run the database (SQL 2005 Express) and WMware running CentOS). I did exactly as the guide showed with the database and got all the Account, Cabal_managerdb, ect..all running fine with a database IP of 192.168.1.146 (which is also my LAN IP). At least that's what I assumed that is what my DB IP is. I even try to ping the CentOS using my windows and got a reply both way (192.168.1.146 windows can ping 192.168.1.148 CentOS and vice versa). So I went ahead to Cent0S and ran the server and I got this:

################################################## ################
###### Cabal server config script v2.00 by mrmagoo (chumpy) ######
################################################## ################
Finding WAN IP: XXXXXXXXXX
Finding local IP: 192.168.1.148

Stopping the server...
cat: /etc/cabal/server_list: No such file or directory
Removing old configuration...

IP players will connect to [XXXXXXXXX] :
Enter MSSQL server IP : 192.168.1.146
Enter MSSQL DB username :
Enter MSSQL DB password :
Enter log level [3] :
Enter max players per channel [100] :

Configurations available :
1 - Mercury (1 chan. Normal)
2 - Venus (1 chan. PK)
3 - Mars (1 chan. War)
4 - Jupiter (1 chan. Tierra Gloriosa)
5 - Saturn (2 chan. Normal/TG)
6 - Neptune (3 chan. Normal/War/Tierra Gloriosa)
7 - Pluto (3 chan. PK/War/Tierra Gloriosa)
8 - Leo (4 chan. Normal/PK/Prem War/Tierra Gloriosa)
9 - Sirius (4 chan. Normal/PK/War/Tierra Gloriosa)
10 - Draco (5 chan. Normal/Prem/Prem PK/Prem War/TG)
11 - Test Server (1 chan. PK)

Enter a configuration [11] :

Initialising Test24 configuration...
GlobalDBAgent: link... ini...service.
GlobalMgrSvr: ini... service.
CashDBAgent: link...ini... service.
DBAgent_24: link... ini...service.

LoginSvr_01: link...ini...service.
Creating: Common.ini...odbc.ini...
Setting Permission...

Setup complete. Start the service? [Y] :


Enable cron support? [N] :

All done. Run me again any time to change your config ;)

[root@cabalserver ~]#

Looks good so far?

Here is my problem:

After merging all the GP client part together, I extracted the client to a folder then proceeded to extract the GP Cabal Patch login to the same folder. I went in that folder and edited the "internal.txt" file first with the CentOS IP (192.168.1.148) and I can't connect. After that, I tried every IP I could find and still can't connect. I even tried the Hamachi guide and still can't connect to the server. When I ran the "ifconfig" command, I get [Only Registered and Activated Users Can See Links. Click Here To Register...].


Also, when I was following the database installation guide, I was told to create a user and make that user the dbo--which I did--what do I do with that user? Is that what I am suppose to use to log in the game server..assuming if I can get it to work? Do I need to input that user where it says MSSQL User name and password on CentOS?

It's obviously that I am a noob at this so if anyone want to give me live help, my yahoo msn id is *censured*]. I know it will get harder from here but I am willing to learn. Thank you in advance for any reply

Dinh
