ofp ww4

[razor168]

Hi

I'm trying to create a OFP: Resistance Server with ww4 Mod under Debian Linux 6.0. But I have one big problem.

The Mod shortcut in ofpserver is:

MODS="@lol;@lolislands;@ww4mod25"

But if I try to start the Server there is the following errormessage in my logfile:


WATCHDOG (29057): [Di 4. Okt 21:27:24 CEST 2011] Starting server (port 1600)...
No entry 'config.cpp.CfgWorlds'.
21:27:25 Dedicated server created, memory used: 16524 KB
WATCHDOG (29057): [Di 4. Okt 21:27:25 CEST 2011] Server died, waiting to restart...

All Files and Missions are in lowercase. And if I start the Server without the @ww4mod25 the server is running without any problems.

I hope somebody can help me.

Are you using the Linux version of the server?

Yes I do. Version 1.96. If I start the server only with MODS="@lol;@lolislands" the server is running without any problems. But if I activate @ww4mod25 too then the server has the error message.

Try loading ww4mod first? When I play on my server if I load WW4 last I loose the game sound, so I load it bettwen LOL addon folders and it works fine.

[razor168]

MODS="@ww4mod25;@lol;@lolislands"

This way I'm becoming the same error message. The Server dies after starting.

And the problem is only on serverside not on client.

Just to test to see if it's not some bizarre addon conflicting, try to start your dedicaced server with only :

MODS="@ww4mod25"

Do you have the same error ?

[razor168]

I become the same error Message.

No entry 'config.cpp.CfgWorlds'.

So after trying with only @ww4mod25 you have this message again ?
That's strange as other people using dedicaced servers too do not have it.

I begin to believe you have some ww4 modified files, not the original ones like it happened already in the ww4 thread involving a config.cpp that was not the original ww4mod25 one.

To see if you're in the same case :

- delete the @ww4mod25 folder, and download it again from one of the links from the 1st post of the ww4 mod 2.5 release thread, do not download it from another source to avoid a problem and do not download a customised version of the WW4 config that could have the problem you observe.

-download the patch 1 too, and install it.

Now try again with only MODS="@ww4mod25" , no other mod folder.

Considering the ww4 mod own config.cpp has correct CfgWorlds entries, this message should not happen.

I become the same error message.

If after downloading ww4mod25+patch1 , used it with OFP patched to 1.96 o CWA and tried to launch your server with only it, no other mod and no other addon, you continue to have this message, then i have no idea why it is happening only for you, sorry.

Maybe it's a linux problem, because on windows, launching the ww4 mod 2.5 with a non dedicaced server works without a problem, and after just trying to launch the dedicaced server (OFPR_Server.exe) with the mod, it too works without problem.

edit :
maybe something :

Someone with the same CfgWorlds problem, trying to run WGL5 on Linux dedicaced and having no problem if run on Windows dedicaced

And apparently the solution :

Cannot get it (wgl_beta_06-02-05@wgl5.rar) to run on a linux dedi, wtf? Not for linux?
I get a "segmentation" error followed by =No entry 'config.cpp.CfgWorlds'= error. So copy sth from /bin to root (like in finmod)?

Yep - copy all *.cpp and *.hpp files (four of them) from @wgl5/bin to the base ofp server folder, just like you do with the finmod/bin/config.cpp for FDF mod. WGL5 runs just fine on a Penguin OFP server.

If you switch between mods, make sure you remove these *.cpp and *.hpp files when you stop the WGL5 server.

I have no idea what is that move the .cpp file like with finmod trick is, but that maybe could do the trick if you're used to how a linux works regarding file and where they need to be

So maybe you need to

Go to /@ww4mod25/bin and copy config.cpp + resource.cpp -files to your OFP folder.

if it works like what is said about the FDF mod regarding the linux server this should then fix the problem.
