My server is not working
« on: October 19, 2007, 10:08:51 PM »
Hi my server is not going and i cant figure it out when i go into it it wont let me login my ops password, rcon password and on top of that it just doesnt show up on the list have forward port but havent check the firewall cause i didnt no how. here are the results from the test. please help  :'(

DP Resource Public Server Troubleshooter
Specified server information: 121.72.42.211:27910
RCON password provided? no
Run at Sat, 20 Oct 2007 04:00:11 +0000

TEST PROCESS
===================
> Checking if 121.72.42.211:27910 can be connected to...
>    Writing to socket: '\xFF\xFF\xFF\xFFstatus\n'
>    Attempting to read, 3 second timeout...
>    Success: Strings 'Digital Paint' and/or 'DPPB2' found in server output (ping: 207ms)
> Connection SUCCESSFUL! Port forwarding and firewall settings correct.
> Checking server list...
> Getting server list from http://dplogin.com/serverlist.php
> 93 lines of server list data
> Processed 87 server lines, 25 different IPs
> No entries found on the server list
> No RCON password provided... can't check settings.

RECOMMENDATIONS
===================
* Your server may be private; set 'public' to '1' for your server and then restart your server
* The wrong master servers may be set; open your server configuration file, delete all the lines starting with setmaster, and add setmaster dplogin.com master0.gamespy.com (then restart your server)
* Enter your RCON password for extended troubleshooting solutions

Well he said...

...it wont let me login my ops password, rcon password...

So I assume he isn't configuring rcon_password right to begin with so the troubleshooter can investigate more.

How are you configuring rcon_password? In a configuration file?

How are you running the server?

"FART'S server.cfg" has a space in it. This is a nono. This may work, but no guarantees:

You have to use:
C:\games\Paintball2\paintball2.exe +set dedicated 1 +set public 1 +exec "FART'S server.cfg" +map ub_rooftop

You should just do away with the space.

The heartbeats are good.

Can you run the troubleshooter again and paste the result here?

If two foreigners joined then your server is showing up on the list.

If that troubleshooter says everything is fine then you're on the list.

Your server may not show on the list for yourself. Have you clicked "Update" too?

Have your friends clicked "Update" as well?

Edit: Just checked it and that is right.
