[SOLVED] Issue when starting PyPlanet

[TMarc]

Did you download the latest dedicated server?
http://files.v04.maniaplanet.com/server ... Latest.zip

In the past years there have been changes, perhaps not all tutorials work 100% nowadays.

A relative path is the path to a file, starting from the current folder, hence relative: Scripts/TimeAttack.Script.txt
An absolute path typically includes the drive letter, it is a complete path: c:\Progam Files\ManiaplanetDedicatedServer\Scripts\Modes\Trackmania\TimeAttack.Script.txt

Generally it is a good idea to try to start the dedicated server directly and not from the servev controller,
to check if basic things are fine, like network connection, map lists, mode scripts etc.

Yes I did download the latest dedicated server (I mean the link is the same, so I guess the files are the same ? I might be wrong there) and tried with both relative and absolute path, none of them solved the problem sadly.

Plus I don't have several ways to start the dedicated server, I am just running the .bat but maybe it is not the direct way you mentioned ?

[TMarc]

The latest is perfect.
The batch normally starts the server, yes.

Please post the command line
and also the content of your dedicated configuration (attention, remove the password).

[prevonuty]

Here is the command line of the .bat :

Code: Select all

echo off
ManiaPlanetServer /dedicated_cfg=dedicated_cfg.txt /game_settings=MatchSettings/maplist.txt
if %errorlevel% NEQ 0 pause

And here is the content of my configuration of my dedicated server :

Can you also post your matchsettingsfile, your maplist.txt?

Yes, of course, here it is :

Except that you are missing the ident for the map in the map settings file,
and that the path to the map file is missing,
your configuration is working for me, I'm able to start the dedicated server.

The ident is the unique identifier of each map, to make sure the map file was not unintentionally changed.
You can read it of the map file with GBXDump and look for Map UID.

[prevonuty]

Yes but the problem is not the map, it works perfectly for me, I can start the dedicated server without any problem. The issue is just that I cannot run PyPlanet, with the Script mode error that I still don't understand.

[HaagseSmurf]

Underneath a matchsettings file from our canyonserver. I changed the titlename into stadium cause i guess you are using a Stadium map?
Main difference is indeed the title in your maplist.txt and not in the dedicated.cfg. So try to remove it there.

[prevonuty]

Yes I am using a Stadium map. But I don't get what you mean by removing the title, I don't have any title in my maplist.txt file.
