2dgreengiant/Chrispee's ultiamte ascent repack of DOOM rev 1.976

[Drathnar]

Am i able to make this public or do i need the db :/?

Yes you can make it public just follow the same rules for making any server public really.. and it does create a db so you do have one when you run the sql file.. it just dont have a sql dump, however the db itself is not really modified when you make a server live just change your realms.cfg ascent.cfg and logonserver.cfg files to what they need to be for public.. and you do need either hamachi or a dns to go live

Hey guys, I start the MYSQL 1 and it says.

MySql is starting with mysql/bin/my.cnf <Constole>
071112 16:24:20 [ERROR] can't find messagefile 'C:/greengiant and chrispee's ascent repack/mysql/mysql/share/english/errmsg.sys'
071112 16:24:20 [ERROR] aborting

MySQL could not be started
Press any key to continue..

Any ideas?

sounds like you are missing errmsg.sys check the folder and see if it is there.. thats the first step

[Tamaroth]

[Tamaroth]

Sorry for repost -.-

On page 3, someone mentioned that they were having trouble connecting to their server. I am having the same problem. What you said was slightly vague. What exaclty am I supposed to edit in my logonserver.conf file?

I cant upload it at this time being i am at work.. however if you don't get it by the time I get off (3pm cst) with 2dgreengiants permission (i like the repack so much and i wouldn't do this for just any repack so please don't ask me to host other repacks or files :P) i will mirror it on my server for you and anyone else to download then everyone can rejoice for no download limit/waits..

and/or 2dgreengiant if you want i can set u up with ftp access to my server (can do that from work) and you can ftp in and upload it may be easier to keep it updated with the current version if you would like..

just to make sure i have the scenario right.. you can run the logonserver.exe and the ascent.exe both without errors correct? and if that is the case my second question is are you wanting to make this server public or local only? it makes a difference when editing your .cfg files

for a public server (Non Hamachi) I use DNS so the settings in all these files are for DNS to use dns go here https://www.dyndns.com/ and get a dns :P

then you have to edit your C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file to read something like this local ip you can get by opening a command window and typing ipconfig.. replace all http://my.dnsname.net with your new DNS name
