Can't start server on Ubuntu server 7.10

[thedevnull]

I install the Nexuiz 2.4 on Ubuntu server 7.10 and configured as detailed in the docs. Unfortunately I get the following errors. Any ideas?

nowaydude:/usr/games/Nexuiz$ sudo ./server_linux.sh
exec: 9: .//usr/games/Nexuiz/nexuiz-linux-686-dedicated: not found
nowaydude@oo:/usr/games/Nexuiz$ sudo ./server_pro_linux.sh

There's no need to run the server with sudo privileges.

That missing texture issue has been coming up a lot.
However, this issue will not affect the server since it does not need to know about textures.
So you can safely disregard those error messages until they are fixed.

Thanks for getting back to me. When I do that I still get an error:

nowaydude:/usr/games/Nexuiz$ ./server_linux.sh
exec: 9: .//usr/games/Nexuiz/nexuiz-linux-686-dedicated: not found

Any ideas?

Thanks for the help!

[esteel]

Actually i have no idea what would cause that error.. the two scripts server-linux.sh and server-pro-linux.sh are basically the SAME, but the pro ones passes one more parameter to the server. So both would try to run the same server binary.

But the error message seems valid: .//usr/games/Nexuiz/nexuiz-linux-686-dedicated the .// is a wrong path. But i wonder how this does happen. Could you please post the contents of 'your' server-linux.sh and to compare server-pro-linux.sh?

And yeah as Dave said the nexuiz server does not need to be run as root..

Hey Yall,

I upgraded to Ubuntu Server 8.04 and the problem is resolved. =)

Thanks!

[thedevnull]

It worked on until I upgraded and rebooted and now it doesn't. =( I have tried both the download from official site as well as the files from the Ubuntu Repos. I get the error below:

If I leave it open long enough I actually get a much more verbose error message listed at the bottom.

The error "Can't write DB to server.db " leads me to believe that since you initially ran the server with sudo privileges, perhaps the user which is trying to launch the game does not have write permissions to some game files. I guess something like

Code: Select all

ls -l ~/.nexuiz/data/data

would confirm this. If this is the case, I would suggest using chown on your nexuiz data directory so that the user which is running the game has the correct permissions to read/write files.

Hey Dave,

The permissions from the install right out of the Ubuntu repo's are as follows:

xxx@xxxi:~$ ls -al /usr/games/nexuiz-server
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 583 2008-03-23 05:18 /usr/games/nexuiz-server
xxx@xxx:~$ ls -l ~/.nexuiz/data/data
total 12
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2008-05-05 17:31 maps
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8018 2008-05-05 21:23 server.db
xxx@xxx:~$ ls -al /usr/games/nexuiz
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 618 2008-03-23 05:18 /usr/games/nexuiz


So I am guessing I need to sudo and I need to change the permissions on server.db to 775?

Thanks in advance

Yes, those results were as I thought; your ~/.nexuiz directory is owned by root.
The easiest thing to do would be to just remove that directory and let Nexuiz recreate it as your normal user account, but if you have saved downloads or whatever in there, then just change the permissions like you said.
