Hi&Hello
i have to setup a bf2142 server for an other clan...
i have auto-installed the files over gc from your fileserver...

when i start the server manually it works... (after i've manually set the chmod of the bin files to +x shouldnt this be done automatically when automatically installed?? Rolling Eyes )
also it doesnt startup without errors:

Code:
could not add to maplist. gameMode not found:Belgrade gameMode:gpm_ti
could not add to maplist. gameMode not found:Camp_Gibraltar gameMode:gpm_ti
could not add to maplist. gameMode not found:Cerbere_Landing gameMode:gpm_ti
could not add to maplist. gameMode not found:Fall_of_Berlin gameMode:gpm_ti
could not add to maplist. gameMode not found:Tunis_Harbor gameMode:gpm_ti
could not add to maplist. map not found:Highway_Tampa gameMode:gpm_ti
Loaded 0%
Loaded 1%
...

shouldnt errors like this (map not found etc) just NOT EXIST when autoinstalling from your fileserver? Rolling Eyes
@ the gamemodes... i guess this has to do with CaSeSeNsItIvItY and everything has to be written lowercase? (i am speaking of a linux system, debian etch; uppercase-lowercase made problems with cod4 and the modfiles some time ago... and i guess its just the same thing here...)

when i try to start it over gc:

UPDATE: ok i've tested it with writing all entries in the maprotations in the properties lowercase
no success....
the message still appears
could not add to maplist. gameMode not found:belgrade gameMode:gpm_ti
etc...

Belgrade, Camp_Gibraltar, Cerbere_Landing, Fall_of_Berlin and Tunis_Harbor don't support
the Titan game mode (gpm_ti). You can find out which gamemode which map supports by
looking at mods/bf2142/levels/mapname/info/mapname.desc. gpm_cq should work for most
of them.

Highway_Tampa was an addon-map that came in a standalone package. My guess is they forgot
to install it to their master server.

We don't really maintain the linux installs of many games for various reasons.

You might find that the BF2142 installation is a bit out of date.

You'd probably be better off installing the game yourself and selecting advanced install option 'Do not download, the game software is already physically installed in the required location'

i HAVE installed it from an external source now...
but the server doesnt start anyway... (same error as above....)

manually starting works... (copy&paste the startupline from gc works) but not starting directly with gc...

See if the third page of this topic helps you out:
http://www.gamecreate.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=421

(Summary: Add or remove and "exec" in start.sh, possibly make a wrapper-
script which calls the original start.sh with or without an exec)

Renaming start.sh to e.g. start_orig.sh
and creating a new start.sh containing the following
works just fine:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
exec screen -m -D -A ./start_orig.sh $@


ok this works for the moment... Cool
