TGEA 1.8.1 Dedicated server quits accepting connections
by Scottie Sirius · in Technical Issues · 03/25/2009 (1:15 pm) · 6 replies
When I first initialize the stronghold example as a dedicated server (out of the box with the known bug files fixed) I can log in and play and so can people from anywhere in the world...as far as I know. I'm in Minnesota and we've tested it from Germany, New Hampshire and downstairs...that's most of the world right? Anyway...after about a half hour to an hour with no activity, when you try to connect, the client gets to Loading Mission and just sits there...The server shows that it got a connection request from a given IP and yawns and goes back to sending heartbeats and receiving info requests from the GG Master server...(How do I end that btw?) Any and all help is appreciated!
Here's a chunk of the log... I see 3 odd things...
1. scriptsAndAssets/server/scripts/player.cs (750): Unable to find object: '' attempting to call function 'onDeath'
2. At one spot it says it can't find defaults.cs...there IS no defaults.cs in the common directory...should there be? There isn't out of the box.

I just did a little bit of work on my 2003 server. I uninstalled directx from august and installed the latest march 2009 directx and the latest nvidia drivers and rebooting a couple of times. The video is now working correctly for playing stronghold and the heartbeat is happening. I am getting the mission file not found error just like you so it is not that it is not accepting connections, it is not being able to run the mission file after the first client disconnects. That is the big issue.

When the server cycles games, the current onCyclePauseEnd() in game.cs
checks an absolute path against the relative one stored in $Server::MissionFile.
The function tries to cycle to the next mission by finding the current mission, which is never found.
a quick hack to fix this is to check the relative path, then load the relative path.
This should work.

The problem is a path problem, server.cs sets $Server::MissionFile when the server is created to a relative path for the current mission.When the server cycles games, the current onCyclePauseEnd() in game.cs
checks an absolute path against the relative one stored in $Server::MissionFile.
The function tries to cycle to the next mission by finding the current mission, which is never found.
a quick hack to fix this is to check the relative path, then load the relative path.
This should work.
function onCyclePauseEnd()
{
$Game::Cycling = false;
// Just cycle through the missions for now.
%search = $Server::MissionFileSpec;
for (%file = findFirstFile(%search); %file !$= ""; %file = findNextFile(%search)) {
// Check relative path against global for current mission wich is a relative path (Check server.cs createServer() )
%mission = makeRelativePath(%file, getWorkingDirectory());
if (%mission $= $Server::MissionFile) {
// Get the next one, back to the first if there
// is no next.
%file = findNextFile(%search);
if (%file $= "")
%file = findFirstFile(%search);
break;
}
}
// Make sure our mission name is relative so that it can send
// across the network correctly---(comment from server.cs createServer())
%mission = makeRelativePath(%file, getWorkingDirectory());
loadMission(%mission);
}

Thank you so much. I will give this a try and report back. But this is very strange as this happens in the shipped Stronghold and does not happen in starter.fps in TGE 1.52 or the arcaneFX 1.81 beta that I can see. This piece of code is the same for all of them, so there must be something subtle going on that is changing how this works.

in common/serverScripts/server.cs is what seems to have been added.
This change makes the cycle mission fail because there is never a match for the $Server::MissionFile.
I'm not sure exactly why it was changed, and how the old way was "incorrect" without digging around more and testing.
I'm guessing it has something to do with different install paths or something.
This is probably something that could use posting in 1.8.1 bugs.

I entered it as a bug. Thanks again.

I also have a similiar problem. I use the perl master server from the resource and this works great. When I use my build from TGE on my server everything works and I can connect from inside and outside my network. I had thought when I switched to TGEa and used Stronghold as an example it would also work fine, but it did not. My version of Stonghold sends one hearbeat and hangs. Sometimes if I am quick my client on another machine can connect. If I move the Stronghold build to another PC and set it up as a dedicated server everything works great. The PC with the problem is a Windows 2003 server. The PC that works is Vista 32 and XP sp3. I also notice when running the game on the Windows 2003 PC that the video is not working correctly and the player can run really quick and the animations are not working. I did upgrade the directx and the video drivers (Nvidia 8600 GT). The ports that are open are 28000-28011 TCP and the same for UDP with the addition of those two other ports. I also have all those errors in the log, but I assume since no game is displayed when it is run as dedicated that the video and sound and such are going to a null device and probably this is normal. So if anyone can help me figure out why the hearbeats from the dedicated server stop that would be appreciated. Also Scot, please try your dedicated server on a non Windows 2003 PC.
Thanks.
