Another thing is that I can't seem to get the force skin working Url = http://compusm94.ninetyfour.axc.nl/mod

Name for the skin = funtm2_v2.zip The mod dowload fine from the url but ingame it does'nt show up.

Could you advise me on this one too.

Btw realy love this project run 6 servers with xaseco for years now and now porting it to eXpansion allready have 3 servers running with it !! I like that you can live switch plugins on and off

ps added the following lines to the run.bat so you can shutdown eXpansion ingame and it wil start right back on

Code: Select all

REM change to directory this batch file was called from, to make sure it finds bootstrapper.php
cd D:\Fun4U\Fun4u\manialive-master

:restart

php.exe bootstrapper.php

echo %errorlevel%

echo Program exit at %date% %time% - errorlevel %errorlevel% >> restart.txt

goto restart

Hey great you were able to run the the mod plugin

For info the /admin manialive restart command will do that without doing it in an ugly way let say. Normally eXpansion should never crash, (I have servers running for a month now no crash) so restarting this way isn't good. It hides the problem or if after an update we did a mistake and it crashes every second it will create a lot of log files for nothing.

Btw, my fix fixed your issue then? Can you give me your php version I still think it is strange that that variable was empty

[endbase]

Yes it did solve it !!

I'm running php 5.5.16 on windows server.

And for the "ugly restart" I'm doing that because it is so that I'm not always @ home if it crashes. But it is designed for xaseco in my case and I believe you when you say that it will stay stable for months !!

Hi,

I think i have everything in order now. There is only one point left and that is if i go to server options and i change the max ladderpoints to 60000 it keeps reverting to 50000.

I think I'm missing something but i can't seem to fix it myself.

And yes the sever is registred @ player page as a 60k ladder server

Hi, I think you mean eXpansion changes those values in your configuration right? We have worked on a fix. We will put it in the nighty later , for now you can configure eXpansion so that it doesen't use the same dedicated config file that way it shouldn't break yours. sorry for the problem

[endbase]

Hi thx for the respons !!

It seems that whatever i change does not get written to the dedicated_cfg I think it has something to do with write permissions i think.

Did a test with another filename for dedicated_cfg in expansions settings but it does not show up @ user data Config map.

Maybe I have to wait for the fix you where talking about.

Hi the dedicated server config is written in UserData\Config\ normally
It only works if your server is on the same machine as the dedicated. It won't work on remote installations. And if in linux yes it needs to have write access to the exiting file or the the directory in order to create a new file.

The fix prevents existing files to be overwritten with wrong settings.

[endbase]

Aah oke thx for the info !!

I have sorted everything out now so I'm enjoying eXpansion to the max

Keep up the good work it is realy a nice server controller !!

hi,
so moved the original post to kripkes thread.

my bug is that the interface doesn't get loaded complete sometimes. with 215 players top bar and local recs don't get loaded after a map change.

[oliverde8]

probably due to the unknown login error, not sure what caused that. updating the dedicated api shouln't have caused this issue.
I will switch back to the old dedicated api as soon as I have a pc in front of me XD while trying to figure it out what went wrong with the update
