[!AltME] Discussion about AltME

how do I add it?
the beacon - should be done by my client, or my server? I mean - 
I could install Wireshark, and filter for packets on port 5500, to 
see, if it "pings"

in altme/prefs/prefs.txt, add the line:

debug: [events: [boot error note start halt wns wns-ping]]
Pekr

on my client, or the server?
Carl

[4150]
server... but, wait a min...
Pekr

[4151]
should I restart my servers?
Carl

[4152x2]
actually, it's:  altme/prefs/debug  (no suffix, but as a text file)
Then, in that file:

events: [boot error ... above list  ]
restart just one server
Pekr

so should I delete the debug line from prefs.txt?
Carl
28-Dec-2009
[4155x2]
btw, altme will notice the debug file, and rewrite it with all debug 
fields
correct, remove that line.

done - world Vertuzo restarted, Xidys runs the old way. Vertuzo runs 
on port 5402
sorry, vertuzo is 5401
Carl

is it running?
Pekr
28-Dec-2009
[4160x2]
yes, it is ...
I can connect from remote client
Carl
28-Dec-2009
[4162x2]
I wonder how that is possible?
The log does not show that the world started. So, there is a problem 
on port 5502.
Pekr
28-Dec-2009
[4164]
outgoing port 5502?
Carl
28-Dec-2009
[4165x3]
yes.
wait... nevermind. That's for an experimental build.
It's 5500 as documented.

I try to look at netstat -an on that machine, but nothing obvious 
....
Carl
28-Dec-2009
[4169]
look at log file.
Pekr
28-Dec-2009
[4170x2]
btw - debug file did not change ...
servers/vertuzo/log.txt?
Carl
28-Dec-2009
[4172x2]
yes
look for line that begins with wns
Pekr
28-Dec-2009
[4174x3]
nothing logged ...
altme/prefs/debug (no suffix), added following line:

events: [boot error note start halt wns wns-ping]
is that correct? Then I restarted one world - Vertuzo, port 5401
Carl

verifying, 1 min
ok, my mistake. Servers don't use the normal client prefs. Here are 
the steps...
move your debug file to the altme/servers/vertuzo directory, then 
restart the world
btw, remove the debug file from your other dir, or your clients may 
log too much info
After startup, debug file is:
; AltME Debugging and Logging Options
debug: 0
file: %log.txt
events: [boot error note start halt wns wns-ping]
echo: none
net: none
time: none
log.txt shows:
...
wns 28-Dec-2009/16:12:29-8:00 ["open" "testtest" 5400]
wns 28-Dec-2009/16:12:31-8:00 ["close" "testtest" lookup ok]
wns-ping 28-Dec-2009/16:13:31-8:00 [open]
wns-ping 28-Dec-2009/16:13:31-8:00 [lookup]

debug rewritten, good sign ...

WNS log shows:

command 28-Dec-2009/16:12:30-8:00 [75.101.29.32 {cmd: open data: 
["testtest" 0]}]

command 28-Dec-2009/16:13:31-8:00 [75.101.29.32 {cmd: live data: 
["testtest" 64#{OD...}]}]

start 29-Dec-2009/1:12:59+1:00 ["vertuzo" 5401 1.2.13 29-Dec-2009/1:12:59+1:00]
Carl

So, this indicates that it works (from here).
Pekr

log.txt shows no more detail though ...
Carl

[4188x5]
Ah... very interesting...
my log.txt shows:

start 28-Dec-2009/16:12:29-8:00 ["testtest" 5400 1.2.18 28-Dec-2009/16:12:29-8:00]
so, version number is different.
Maybe the bug is that the server does not apply the recent patches.
Download 1.2.18, and try again.  This will tell us.

website shows 1.2.15, is that correct?
Carl

Try it.
