Hi there,

I'm fairly new to Uaseco. I just created my first dedicated server with Uaseco.
Everything seems to work well except the fact that I can't add any map on my server.

From what I've found, as MasterAdmin, I should be able to add a map with the following command :

Code: Select all

/admin add <TRACK ID>

The thing is, whenever I try to add a map like that, it miserabily fails and I get the following message :

Code: Select all

Method [GetMapInfo]: Error getting info on Map [Tech Nicker]!

(Tech Nicker being the map I tried to add)

Thus I can't add any map from MX on my server. Do you have any idea or guide that may help me ?

EDIT : OK, I just lokked through Uaseco's log file, and here's what comes when I try to add a map :

Code: Select all

[UASECO Exception] Error returned: "Map unknown." [-1000] at GbxRemote::query() for method "CheckMapForCurrentServerParams" with arguments:
array(1) {
  [0]=>
  string(36) "MX/Stadium/tech-nicker_29517.Map.gbx"
}

[UASECO Exception] Error returned: "Map unknown." [-1000] at GbxRemote::query() for method "AddMap" with arguments:
array(1) {
  [0]=>
  string(36) "MX/Stadium/tech-nicker_29517.Map.gbx"
}

Maybe that map is still a MP3 version? You can try: download, recalculate shadow, add manually.

At first, thanks for your answer.

Here's where I am :

1 - How can I recompute the map's shadows ? All the maps I find are password protected and cannot be opened in editor.

2 - I still tried to add the map manually using

Code: Select all

/admin addlocal <map name>

That map is located in the Maps/Downloaded folder of my server.
Still, it does not work and it says that my file is not found.
Here's what I get in Uaseco's log file :

Code: Select all

[2017-08-17 23:26:35] [Chat] Player [plateosaurus] used command "/admin addlocal Tech Nicker.Map.Gbx"

1: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=maniaplanet+calculate+shadows

2: It seems that "/admin addlocal MAP" is buggy, but you can manually add the map in the "MatchSettings" file to test the map (added to the todo list).

Btw.: You should also take a look into the logfile from the dedicated server, there could be detailed information about why the dedicated server don't like the map.

So recomputing shadows do not seems to change anything.

I already tried to load maps by editing MatchSettings, in fact this is the first thing I tried. When I did so, the map loads and is playable, but I loose all info about it (ex : it appears as map "Unknown" made by "Unknown", no dedimania, etc ...). By searching on the net, I found some people coming across that problem, who solved it by adding the map with admin commands.

On the Dedicated log file, there's absolutely nothing abnormal : it just loads the map file if it's in Matchsettings. And if I try to add it with

Code: Select all

/admin add <MAP ID>

It calls this :

Code: Select all

PluginManialinks?Action=23

Which is normal I think ?

Hi,
this sounds similar to the problem I had. See this post: viewtopic.php?f=522&t=42265&sid=0555002 ... 06#p289579.

OK so I'm still searching for a solution and I think that that's caused by a wrong parameter in my uaseco.sh and webrequest.sh files.

The thing is, when I run those scripts after launchig my dedicated server, it creates a new folder inside of my UASECO installation.
That folder's name is the path I put in newinstall/uaseco.sh and newinstall/webrequest.sh files. I mean, the path to that folder looks like this :

Code: Select all

/home/USER/Maniaplanet/uaseco/E:\home\USER\Maniaplanet\GameServer\UserData\Maps\MX

It contains environments sub folders, and in Stadium subfolder, I find the GBX files I tried to add with the /admin add <TRACKID> command !

Is it normal ? I think UASECO is able to download the maps, but it did not add them directly into my server map folder ; it adds them in that new folder in my UASECO installation. And when I try to add them ingame, it can't because they are not in the actual dedicated server map folder.

I think I put wrong parameters in my newinstall/webrequest.sh and newinstall/uaseco.sh files.
On the Uaseco website, we can read the following :

Edit newinstall\uaseco.sh and newinstall\webrequest.sh

Replace cd /home/tm2/uaseco with the real path on your server.

So in my files, I put the actual path of my ManiaPlanetServer file. newinstall/uaseco.sh looks like this :

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
cd /home/user/Maniaplanet/GameServer
php -d allow_url_fopen=on -d safe_mode=0 uaseco.php TM2 2>>logs/uaseco.log 1>&2 &
echo $!

/home/user/Maniaplanet/GameServer being the folder where my dedicated server is installed.

Are those parameters correct ?
