trying to get my server going...

[Zippa]

Hi. Today I've trying to get a CoD2 jump server running on another machine. I tried both the 1.6 and the new 1.8 mod and followed the steps in the readme. I've enabled all of the following ports on my router:

20500
20510
28960
28900
13139
27900
29900
29901
6500
6515

I have no anti virus or firewall software running.

When I start the server this is what I get:

Code: Select all

I cannot connect to the server using my other machine. This server is using a static ip. When putting in the ip address in the shortcuts command line to run the server, I've tried putting both my external and internal ip address. Nothing. I've tried connecting to the server (on my other machine) using both the external and the internal ip address. Still nothing.

Now once I start the server, are there some commands I must type in? I've tried typing "map mp_jump" and it says "Cannot load a map without selecting a player profile".

I installed CoD2 on this machine, installed the patch, then followed the readme to install the jump mod. Also note I have never PLAYED CoD2 on this machine.

[Drofder2004]

Make sure you get the server working WITHOUT mods before you install them.

Can you post your EXACT command line used to run the server.
Your EXACT config (make sure you remove rcon passes)

[Zippa]

This is the exact command line on my shortcut:

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files\Activision\Call of Duty 2\CoD2MP_s.exe" +set fs_game codjumper +set dedicated 2 +set net_ip <64.231.37.43> +set net_port <28960> +exec server.cfg

I do believe the problem is that I don't have a map running. When I type something in like:

Code: Select all

map mp_jump

It says:

Code: Select all

Cannot load a map without selecting a player profile

[YaNo]

Make shure this is in the .cfg somewhere:

Code: Select all

set sv_mapRotation "map mp_map1 map mp_map2 map mp_map3"
set sv_mapRotationCurrentmap ""
map_rotate // Begins the servers rotation

this is cod1 but you could try it in cod2

if it still dont work try to add this ti the shortcut:

Code: Select all

+map_rotate

i hope it works now

Thanks Yano for the tips, I'll try them out.

Ok well I added +map_rotate to the command line. I downloaded jm_castle and tried putting it in both my main and my codjumper folders. Here's what I got when I started the server:

Now I want to know exactly what I have to put in after sv_MapRotation and sv_maprotationcurrent
The readme suggests this:

Code: Select all

set sv_MapRotation "gametype codjumper map jm_castle"

set sv_maprotationcurrent ""

I've tried toying around with this for about an hour, such as taking out the gametype part, and typing something in the maprotationcurrent area. For some reason the server isn't running the map as you can see in the server log above.

[Zippa]

You see the thing is, I did put in a map it's just not reading it.

I think I found out what the problem is now.

The part where it says:

Code: Select all

Unknown Command "/"

What ever the first letter in the server.cfg file is, it will say it's an unknown command and then stops reading the server.cfg file therefore not seeing the map I put in.

If there is someone who has a working server, if they could copy and paste the server.cfg file and/or the server log once the server has started, that would be great

[Drofder2004]

A couple of things.

Firstly I request you change...

Code: Select all

// Set the Gametype
set g_gametype "codjumper"

// Set the Map Rotation
set sv_MapRotation "gametype codjumper map mp_breakout"
set sv_maprotationcurrent "" 

To

Code: Select all

// Set the Gametype
set g_gametype "dm"

// Set the Map Rotation
set sv_MapRotation "map mp_breakout"
set sv_maprotationcurrent "" 

Secondly...

I dont think your config is being run at all. Can you tell me where your file is located?

------
Also, try this just as a debug process..

Try this as your command line.

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files\Activision\Call of Duty 2\CoD2MP_s.exe" +set fs_game codjumper +set dedicated 2 +set net_ip <64.231.37.43> +set net_port <28960> +exec server.cfg +set sv_maprotation "map mp_breakout" +map_rotate

[Zippa]

perfect! got a program so I could save .cfg files correctly

Now there's still one problem, when I start the server and it attemps to run the map it says:

Code: Select all

Cannot load a map without a player profile being selected.

[Drofder2004]

Run CoDMP.exe and create a new profile, this will automatically become your default.

[Drofder2004]

Topic cleaned. This section is not for crap talk, keep it out. All your on-topic posts have been removed, I would personally like people to not post in this thread unless...

1. They have experience running their own server
2. They know what they are talking about
3. If they have something relevant to say.

[Zippa]

Thanks to the help of everyone who posted in this topic, I finally got the server running. Thanks again to all of you!

I'd also like to note that another problem I ran into that I should point out to future server runners is that when putting you ip address in the command line, you must put it in <> (example: <111.222.333.444>). However, for the server port you must NOT put it in <> (example: 28960).

Now I'm just trying to figure out more things, like how I get my server to recognize me as an admin.

[Drofder2004]

You shouldnt put the ip inside the <> at all, I use that in all areas where something must be changed...
Example...

<Change Me>, when changed should be "Changed" not <Changed>

[Inetpub]

Is this a public server? I'd like to check it out if it is. Whats the ip?

[Zippa]

I don't have it up all the time, it was mainly to get my friends together on it and since I'm using a router my ip is changing all the time but I plan to have it going tomorrow so I'll post the ip.
