server.cfg doesn't get loaded

Postby C167 » Wed Oct 31, 2007 5:36 pm

I've got a linux-server, now i wanted to run a nexuiz-server.
i've got the nexuiz-server.deb installed, the server itself runs quite well, except that it ignores the server.cfg

I've put it into /usr/share/games/nexuiz/data, where the data-{date}.pkg is.
it simply ignores the file when started with the normal startscript that debian provides (it simply calls the server itself and adds possible params.

if i say "nexuiz-server +exec /usr/share/games/nexuiz/data/server.cfg", it starts and says
Code: Select all
couldn't exec config.cfg
couldn't exec data/campaign.cfg
couldn't exec autoexec.cfg
FS_Open("/usr/share/games/nexuiz/data/server.cfg", "rb", false): nasty filename rejected
couldn't exec /usr/share/games/nexuiz/data/server.cfg

what can I do? have i forgotten something?

Don't use the full path, just use "+exec server.cfg"
All filenames the server uses are relative to the data/ directory and the server won't open any files that are not in /usr/share/games/nexuiz/data/ or ~/.nexuiz/data for security reasons.
