Local Records

[lille79]

Hi! I was just wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction for setting up local records. I'm not sure about what is needed and what should be enabled and so on.

Tried enabling local records from the MLEPP but I'm not sure how it should be done. Most things I read is for developers or old versions, so I thought it'd be better to ask I've figured out how to start Manialive and gotten the admin-plugin, joinleave-plugin and a few others to work, so I'm about to get the basics right atleast.

ps. Is there a certain sequence that the plugins need to be listed like with Aseco/xaseco-plugins, or doesn't that matter in ManiaLive?

First of all: welcome in this little world called ManiaLive !
The only currently available Local Records plugin is inside the MLEPP package.
As stated on the MLEPP wiki (http://code.google.com/p/mlepp/wiki/InstallGuide?tm=6):

find this at the end:
;------------------
[hostname: testHost]
;------------------

add semicolon at the start of the middle line:
;------------------
;[hostname: testHost]
;------------------

then open config-example-mlepp.ini
select all and copypaste it to the end of the config.ini -file.

then find the database
edit the database to look like this:

plugins.load = 'MLEPP\Database'
plugins.MLEPP\Database.type = 'MySQL'
plugins.MLEPP\Database.port = '3306'
plugins.MLEPP\Database.host = '127.0.0.1'
plugins.MLEPP\Database.user = 'mlepp'
plugins.MLEPP\Database.password = 'yourmysqlpasswordhere'
plugins.MLEPP\Database.name = 'mlepp'

Save and close config.ini..
start dedicated server and manialive with run.bat
And you are done.

I think you understand the MySQL part (creating the database etc.), but if not... follow the link, it is explained there.

As far as I know there isn't a certain sequence like in Aseco...
If running Freezone, putting the Freezone last might solve some errors (someone: if wrong... correct me )

If you have further questions, feel free to ask!

I think I'm getting it a bit now. Been so used to Xaseco that this is like learning to crawl again...
I had forgotten to copy the setup from MLEPP into the config.ini, so when that was in place I've come a small step further. Now I'm getting this error after it initially seems to start relatively correct:

About a minute after it says "ERROR: Update service was unable to contact server ...", I get this:

Is this just something I haven't configured you think, or have I stepped wrong somewhere.

[TheM]

Strange thing is... I don't seem to be able to reproduce your error...
You made a database, edited the config.ini and than started ManiaLive?

EDIT: You might try to remove the tables from your database and try again...

[Knutselmaaster]

I had a similar problem once, when i tried to use an existing xaseco database for mlepp.
You do use a fresh database don't you?

[lille79]

No I used an old one actually. Will try a clean and fresh start tomorrow Thanx for all help so far!

[Knutselmaaster]

You're welcome

Edit:
Moved topic to the plugins section.

[lille79]

A clean database was all it took Thanks!
