[Help] Map not showing up in pwAdmin list.

[crxfreak]

I have downloaded the q20 map files from coolgirlpwns & Estiger, added all files where they need to be, edited gs.conf and gsalias.conf, however it is not showing up in pwAdmin to start it. Is there somewhere else that I need to edit to get it to show up? Just a point in the right direction would be appreciated.

try {
opt\apache-tomcat-5.5.28\2\webapps\pwAdmin\serverctrl.jsp
}

[crxfreak]

yep that got it in the list, thanks. Now just need to figure out why it keeps crashing. woohoo

[avalanche3]

client crashing or server crashing?
If it's server then it could be bad configuration in gs.conf, or missing files. Make sure that u have all folders with proper files (airmap, map, movemap, watermap). You can even copy the missing files from for example a34 or a35.
If it's client then it can be missing litmodels...

...and even though it doesn't seem to be your problem right now, also remember (for the future) that right after you've added a map to the LISTS in 'serverctrl.jsp' (yes, don't forget to add it TWICE {once for PWi names and once for MY names}, it may not appear immediately in pwAdmin. If this is the case you need to recursively remove the directory 'work' (for tomcat anyway) (eg. rm -R /opt/apache-tomcat-5.5.28/2/work)... ;)

[crxfreak]

Well it is server side that it is crashing. Basically what I did was copy the z9 entries, as I am using 343's newest release, and changed anywhere that it said z9 to q20 in gs.conf & gsalias.conf.

gs.conf

I think I know one sec plz...

Ok, check your REGION CLT/SEV

My guess is your REGION is set to "VERSION 6"

This is NOT compatible with our version... Merely change this 6 to a 5 and re convert CLT => SEV and your map will no longer crash ;)

[crxfreak]

Ok have made several attempts to convert region.clt to sev and keep getting

[343]

give it to me ill convert for you

[crxfreak]

Ok here it is, I appreciate the help, but if I can figure out what is going wrong it will help in the future.
region.rar

Thank again for all the help, truly an asset to this community.

[343]

Fair enough -- if you want I wont do it for you then ;)

but at least now that I saw your file (CLT) I know the problem.

Correctly so you changed the 6 => 5 , but the region [trans] zones are not in proper format, you must either remove these or 'fix' them to be in 'proper format'

[crxfreak]

lol, don't get me wrong I was going to accept the file after you fixed it, but was just making the statement that it would help in the future if I knew what was wrong and how to fix it.

[343]

I know :)

I just didn't know what it could be until I saw the file ;)

but now that you know you can do it on your own

[crxfreak]

Ok didn't want a miscommunication, so the trans issue would be causing the error when converting it then? I will look into that then, thanks again very much appreciate it.

[343]

Yes, it's the [trans] causing your conversion to 'crash' ;)

---------- Post added at 06:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:52 PM ----------

...and yes I know where you're coming from for sure -- I'd rather know how to do something myself rather than have someone do it for me:

"Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime."

[crxfreak]

Well I made adjustment where I assumed they needed to be, and still goes offline. Also tried with a blank region and it still happens, so gotta start looking elsewhere. Thanks for the help 343.

[343]

ok hold on, I'll do a quick one and send it your way -- see if it helps...

[343]

Here ya go, try these

[343]

Oh, another thing. I decided to download this 'q20' myself now, I just noticed something else -- the NPCGEN does NOT match MY (releases) 'blank' NPCGEN... That could be possibly causing problems too!

Take my 'blank' NPCGEN (from /PWServer/gamed/config/emptys) and put it in there -- that may also fix it ;)

[crxfreak]

Ok apparently this map is not meant to run for me lol. I replaced the region from your post plus the blank npcgen and it still goes back offline. Just doesn't like me today.

[343]

Ok, give me a couple days and I guess I will see if I can get it working (before I had no interest / or demand for it)

If I can get it working I will add it into my release ;)

[crxfreak]

Was something I hadn't worked with yet so I figured I would try my hand at it. If you get it working I would ask you to enlighten me if you could on what was wrong please.

[343]

I will try, often when working I don't keep any notes (on every detail of my 'work') I just dive in and 'work' (and keep any 'important' notes)

[crxfreak]

Ok got it to stay up, needed to completely shut server down then bring back up.

[343]

nice! well, I've already begun working over here -- so look forward to it being in my next release.

I hadn't really planned one for OCT so if I do get this done look forward to either an OCT release 'update' or I'll just put it out 'early' when I finish this stuff with adding q20... ;)
