Then it's not running. Check the logs to see why it isn't starting.

Try starting it "manually" - you may have bad or missing area files. eg.


cd ../area
../src/smaug

Okay I think you may be on to something because I went in and tried to start it again, and immediately checked the logs that started coming through, and all it is is a series of logs saying:

../src/smaug: Command not found.

Did you compile the source first? You should have a file called 'smaug' in your src directory.

That would be a negative, not seeing the file.

You don't have the zlib package, you need that.

Open a terminal, and type:

sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev

you'll have to enter your password.

After that, you'll have the zlib development libraries and should be able to compile your source code.

Sorry to revive a dead topic, but I'm lost and have a similar problem.

When I try to run startup, with or without nohup, I'm told the directory doesn't exist.

sabrous@ps14248:~/src$ ./startup
: No such file or directory.

Just like everyone else here... Despite the fact that I do have tcsh installed on the server, it didn't help at all. Here's the first lines of the startup...

#! /bin/tcsh

# Set the port number.
set port = 4000
if ( "$1" != "" ) set port="$1"

Nothing out of the ordinary, no? Well, in an effort to stem the frustration that's plagueing us, someone coded a new startup file using bash. here's the first lines of that...

#!/bin/sh

####################################################
# Smaug startup script in bash #
# Written by Khtall for Sabrous #
# Functions the same as the normal startup script, #
# but it's written in bash, not csh. #
####################################################

#Name of the shutdown logfile
shutdown='shutdown.txt'

only when i try to run THAT, i get...

sabrous@ps14248:~/src$ ./sabstartup
-bash: ./sabstartup: /bin/sh^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
sabrous@ps14248:~/src$

what the hell. i've chmoded everything, and the server is adamant that it's 100% not their fault. but i can't think what on earth else it could be. the file works fine when tested on the offline version of the MUD. just not on the freakin server! HELP!


here's the ls -l of both files, in case it helps at all...

sabrous@ps14248:~/src$ ls -l startup
-rwxr--r-- 1 sabrous pg501817 1036 Sep 15 16:14 startup

sabrous@ps14248:~/src$ ls -l sabstartup
-rwxr-xr-x 1 sabrous pg501817 2308 Sep 16 05:50 sabstartup


after having checked out this post:
http://www.gammon.com.au/forum/?id=2322

i wonder if maybe the files are in DOS format? I did download them to a windows machine from the old server, and did edit them on my windows machine before re-uploading to the new server.

i tried to do a quick fix in vi in case this was the problem , but after inputting :1,$s/^M//g the pattern was not found. So, I'm guessing conversion ISN'T my problem.

so frustrated right now.

just to be 100% clear, I CAN run the MUD by going into the area directory and running smaug. she starts right up, in that case.

It just seems an extremely unreliable and ghetto way of running a MUD...I'd like my freakin' startup script!

getting wild ideas in any attempt to progress at all.

sabrous@ps14248:~/src$ dos2unix sabstartup
sabrous@ps14248:~/src$ ./sabstartup
/proc/net/tcp: Permission denied

that's a NEW error. did my chmods reset?

sabrous@ps14248:~/src$ ls -l sabstartup
-rwxr-xr-x 1 sabrous pg501817 2229 Sep 16 07:28 sabstartup

looks the same as before...let's just set them to be sure?

sabrous@ps14248:~/src$ chmod u+x sabstartup
sabrous@ps14248:~/src$ ./sabstartup
/proc/net/tcp: Permission denied

okay so ...having read around this is maybe because i'm not in my root directory? WHATEVER YOU SAY, SERVER.


sabrous@ps14248:~$ ./src/sabstartup
./src/sabstartup: line 24: cd: ../area: No such file or directory
./src/sabstartup: line 48: ../log/1000.log: No such file or directory
./src/sabstartup: line 49: ../area/boot.txt: No such file or directory
/proc/net/tcp: Permission denied

now you really got me. the area folder DOES exist, there's no boot.txt in the area folder or 1000.log in the logs folder, but should that really matter? not to mention, permission still denied?

what is going ON?

Why is it trying to access /proc/net/tcp? What is your startup script doing?

By the way,
#! /bin/tcsh

note the extra space in between the ! and the / -- that should not be there.
