[!AltME] Discussion about AltME

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:

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

log.txt shows no more detail though ...

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.
Pekr

website shows 1.2.15, is that correct?
Carl
28-Dec-2009
[4194x2]
Try it.
brb
Pekr

the same .exe size. The same version, the same behaviour, no logging 
...
start 29-Dec-2009/1:25:05+1:00 ["vertuzo" 5401 1.2.13 29-Dec-2009/1:25:05+1:00]
Carl
28-Dec-2009

checking...
Let me upload a .18 version for you to try.
Pekr
28-Dec-2009
[4200]
ok ....
Carl
28-Dec-2009
[4201x2]
www.altme.com/download/altme-18beta.exe
stop all altme and servers, then install that new one.
Pekr
28-Dec-2009
[4203x2]
start 29-Dec-2009/1:36:39+1:00 ["vertuzo" 5401 1.2.18 29-Dec-2009/1:36:39+1:00]
still no detailed debug info ...
Carl
28-Dec-2009
[4205]
verify that log.txt is from altme/servers/vertuzo
Pekr
28-Dec-2009
[4206x4]
yes, the same location as debug file itself ...
I will delete the log
still the same:

halt 29-Dec-2009/1:40:49+1:00 ["halted"]

start 29-Dec-2009/1:40:54+1:00 ["vertuzo" 5401 1.2.18 29-Dec-2009/1:40:54+1:00]
at least the version number is now 18
Carl
28-Dec-2009
[4210x2]
yes... but I am concerned because I started a new world here to confirm 
the debug settings, and it worked.
what shows in the vertuzo/debug file?
Pekr
28-Dec-2009
[4212]
above content, only two lines - I deled it ....
Carl
28-Dec-2009
[4213]
also, how do you start the world?  (from an AltME or from an icon?)
Pekr
28-Dec-2009
[4214x2]
debub file:

; 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
I start it from Total Commander, running altme-vertuzo.cmd:

start altme.exe -s "Vertuzo" -p 5401
Carl
28-Dec-2009
[4216]
try starting it from the altme "Start a World" panel

hmm ....
so should I not start it via "start"? That sounds strange ... will 
turn the world off, and once again with old method ...

I think this was designed to sell AltServe products.
Pekr
28-Dec-2009
[4222]
designed
? :-)
Carl

Safeworlds did not want to see people using or reselling AltME free 
product as a server. So, it does not initialize properly when used 
that way.
Pekr
28-Dec-2009
[4224]
ok, I restarted it "the old way". I wanted to have it in .cmd, to 
auto-start servers, when machine reboots ...

It's a feature .. not a bug
LOL
