Ok, is there a way to get rid of the notification? It's kind of preventing me from entering commands as it just keeps cycling, over and over.

Just to elaborate on Psytrac's answer..

Server start script..

./gamedbd gamesys.conf  2>&1 > /some/dir/logs/gamedbd.log &

The 2>&1 just means error output and standard output.
The second > redirects the output to a file but: overwrites the file.
You can replace that with >> which redirects the output also but: appends to the file.
The second & shoves the command in the background

You could then use in a terminal

tail -f  /some/dir/logs/gamedbd.log

to monitor the last few lines in real time...

Ok, I can't even enter that because the TRACE notification takes over cutting me off when I'm trying to type...
I also got everything setup and managed to get past that point, luckily, at the point where I'm trying to open the registration page but it says the page is not found... None of this seems to work the way it's supposed to.


Is there a better pack to install?

[Psytrac]

just rewrite the script.. that part isn't THAT difficult

[Wrechid]

It looks like it is working just the way it should... @sora1984 explained how to redirect the output, like @Psytrac said you need to edit the start script... The start script is petty compared to the other problems that you are gonna run into no matter which package you try...

What's the best (or any) way to upload files to PW server? I've been running 1.4.6 server from 343's package, would like to try to modify elements.data (how to successfully modify that is another question but think I can figure out what I'm trying to do OK). But, being able to modify the file is pointless if I can't figure how to upload it to the server. I assume the problems I'm getting here are due to it being an old Linux version that perhaps doesn't include these components?

Tried to set up Samba (which would be my ideal preference, since then I can just access the shared folder from Windows and push/pull files from it easily), guides said to do:
sudo apt-get install samba smbfs
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Unable to locate package samba
Unable to locate package smbfs

Tried to set up FTP:
sudo apt-get install vsfptd
... same as above, unable to locate package vsftpd

Tried to set up SSH (I found a guide on this site about this, but):
If I look at "ps aux | grep sshd" I do see
root 5382 0.0 0.0 8108 920 tty1 S+ 13:44 0:00 grep --color=auto sshd
I assume this means SSH daemon is running, or is that just my interactive job and "grep sshd" is the current command and so it outputs it? If I do "telnet localhost 22" then get immediate connection refused, so nothing is even listening on port 22.
Looked in vi /etc/ssh/ssh_config and I see nothing there telling it to run on a non-standard port

sudo systemctl status sshd
systemctl: command not found, so this is unhelpful too as most guides about how to start/stop/configure SSH are all based on commands starting 'sudo systemctl'

Many thanks for any suggestions.

Well, finally figured out an obscure way to get a new elements.data onto the server, now gs won't start up. Checked logs and looks like the end of them are being truncated, therefore I can't see the part which might have a useful error. I grabbed elements.data from the server before I started, compared it with ver from the client and they were identical, so its not mismatching versions, and the client accepts my new elements.data just fine, and sELedit opens it just fine. So now really stuck. How can I find out what's wrong with it?

there's some raw data at the end of one of them, depending on the version. Investigate that you may find it to be the case

This may be a dumb question but I've tried to research the problem, everything is working as intended besides connecting to the pwAdmin page. All attempts lead to either nothing loading or "refused to connect". I'm using the bridged adapter option.

Hi guys
I have the pw 131 client but wondering where I can find the server?

I had all the versions running from 343's packages "brilliant :)", but after a major mishap I only have the 136 version left.
I can manage the later versions I think, (I'm not an expert) but can't find 343's 131 server.

Regards

PS. Thanks but forget the above as the servers I need appear to be in the pw-SAE-servers

[Psytrac]

I have the 1.3.1 cpackage, but not 343's build of it

[Milos]

i never did download 343's torrent so i don't have any of that either, only 1.3.1 i have is the one Psytrac gave me which is the same as he would give you

[Psytrac]

I will also point out that if you need help with setting it up, there are plenty of voices here to assist with it, myself included. CAN NOT use 343's setup, but we can help you get it working

Hi guys

Thanks for the response everyone. I did finally get stuff up and running. 131 and 136 so far.
Wow version 131 was a blast from the past

Regards

PS. Great work from 343
