Server Change Requests

TeaLeaf · July 22, 2010, 08:55:13 PM

With immediate effect can all Game Leaders post any server change requests into this thread so that they can be tracked & actioned. This will also allow work to be picked up by an alternate Server Admin if one is holiday.

If you need to post a file please link it so it can be downloaded direct to the server.

Server Admins will post here when changes have been completed.

Thank you.

Wolfcon Update..

I have a file but can't post it up anywhere as I'm a n00b. Can I email it to you TL? (5mb rar)

When installed and run, you need to login to the dM2 - Regular Rotat'n profile. Then to to Extensions > Daemon Configuration and tick enable WolfSpawn. the IP of 77.108.135.45 and Port 27015 should be there still but just in case..

Please PM me an email addy.

Thanks.

When you make a new post (Go Advanced) then there should be an attachment option under 'Additional Options', one of which is 'Manage Attachments'. Click 'Manage Attachments' and a pop-up window opens. Click 'Add Files', then use the 'Basic Uploader' option (simplest). 'Select Files' and browse to & select the rar file you want uploaded. Click 'Upload Files' and the file you uploaded now appears on the File window.

Now drag the file you uploaded from the top File Upload Manager window, to the lower 'Attachments' window and tick it. 'Insert Inline (0)' will now change to 'Insert Inline (1).
Then click 'Done'
The main forum window now shows an attachment as below.

If that fails, email it to admin@deadmen.co.uk, but the file attachment is easier as the admin email does not go to the server admin people.

Thanks Whitey!! Much appreciated in advance of tonight. I'll try the sub-admin login when I'm home and let you know if there's any probs.

Hi,

The Sub-Admin logon isn't working for some reason. We all keep getting "connection refused".

Can someone test it at your end so we can see if it's local firewall related?

Thanks,

NF

"Enable Wolfspawn" had reverted back to unchecked. The config was pointing to the external IP address 77.108.135.45 and it needs to be the internal address 192.168.35.45. Once changed, I moved between screens and the check box is staying checked. Can you try again and post back here please?

Gone_Away · August 09, 2010, 02:23:37 PM

Thanks Whitey,

Can you confirm that the IP for us loggin in as sub-admins is still 77.108.135.45?

Many Thanks!

Yes, that's correct. To the outside world the server address is 77.108.135.45. Any requests sent to that address are passed on to the actual IP address of the server which is 192.168.35.45.

Gone_Away · August 10, 2010, 12:08:33 AM

It all makes sense now..

Dannage confirmed that it's working. I'll make sure that I use the internal IP for any future submissions. Can you confirm that the port will remain the same?

Works for me too!

I was reading through the Wolfcon manual and came across the exerpt below. I was wondering if we could try to keep stats or server logs (especially for player Chat!) for BC2.

Do we have the ability to do so?

NF

Extensions
Database connection allows Wolfcon to make use of an SQL database hosted either
internally or externally.

Note. Before you can connect to a database first you must download the MySQL
connector, by pressing Ã¢â,¬Å"Get SQL connector buttonÃ¢â,¬Â alternatively you can also find MySQL connector by search for MySQL windows connector in google.

Enter database details, (if your database is hosted externally, please make sure you have
configured the database to allow external access.) Press test connection to make sure
connection is successful.

Select the types of data you want to sync with the database.

Note. Player Score/Stats is required for returning welcome message, as well server
ranking.

There are some PHP scripts on the forum that allows you to show player stats or server
chat live on your website.
