STRANGE LOG FILE PROBLEM

[mybbex]

Tryed to make dedicated server and got following error messages:

Couldn't write uoconfig_mp.cfg.

and

WARNING: Couldn't open logfile: games_mp.log

I don't know about uoconfig_mp.cfg, thought that game makes it self, but I do have following setting for a games_mp.log file in server.cfg file:
set g_logsync "2"
set g_log "games_mp.log"

It should be right, but still I get that error. Any ideas?

If a linux server cannot open a log file, this is your first clue that you don't have the permission set correctly for the game. Make sure the user actually belongs to the user.

Ex:

If I have the user named "tfsclan" then you need to make him boss of the files. To do this, simply hop to the directory before it and type the following:

chown tfsclan tsfclan -R
chgrp tfsclan tfsclan -R

Note that TFSCLAN is the name a make believe user. You have to place your user where tsfclan is.

Hope this helps you!

Thank you, but I tryed to run server under windows me. I tryed to reinstall both Cod and UO, and still same error. I made new server.cfg file using pre made config (found one from this forum) and still same error. This seems x-files thing to me. Damn where are those agents. :?

ok add this in your command line:


+set pb_sv_enable +set sv_punkbuster 1 +set logfile "1" +set g_logSync "2" +set g_log "games_mp.log" +exec server.cfg



Let me know if this helps.
