Guide To Setting Up A Server On A MAC

[Archangel]

Either remove the space, or wrap the path in quotes, eg: cd "/applications/tremulous 20060704/"

-bash: /cd: no such file or directory

cd "/applications/tremulous 20060704/"

even though it's actually /Applications, iirc. it is case sensitive, and space sensitive.

i'll try...... although that post still seems ambiguous to me, due to lack of detail. i'll see what i can do.

[Bulletsjohn]

ok, that worked... thank you, but now i have another thing to work out. i got to the point to type in ./tremded.ub +set dedicated 2 +exec server.cfg....

i get this out of my terminal:

dyld: Library not loaded :@executable_path/libSDL-1.2.0.dylb
   Referenced from: /applications/tremulous 20060704/./tremded.ub
   Reason: image not found
Trace/BPT trap

do i need to retrace a step, or what? because obviously either i missed a step, or the person writing the article missed a step.

if you think you can help me, my MSN is john@relw3.net. i would greatly appreciate the help. i can see that you all are not liking that i cloud this thread up with questions (who does?). thank you for the help so far, but with future help, i'd rather not do it here.

here's something you/we should do... make a guide that has as little to do with the terminal as possible. the reason why, is everything that can be done with the terminal, can also be done with dragging, dropping, clicking, and searching. sure, this is an excellent guide for mac users who know UNIX code, but i am not familliar with it, and i'm sure you all will see some more like me who are not familiar with it, and do not know what to do if this doesn't work.

Well the author didn't miss a step, because this all works fine for me. What was your COMPLETE startup command? Everything you type into Terminal. Because i see that you typed ... so that might indicate that there is more after that...

@ your suggestion about an easier guide: I actually wrote a program with applescript to automatically start up the server. Do you want it? And not ALL of this can be done with JUST dragging and dropping.

[Bulletsjohn]

aww sweet that program sounds excellent... can i try it out? please and thank you so much.

[infestor1]

sure but your trem folder needs to be in /Applications/Tremulous

it will only work then. is it?

You need to install SDL.  If it didn't come with trem then I have no idea how such stuff would be done on a mac.

[Bulletsjohn]

i'll tell you what i have. in applications, i scroll all the way down to find a folder called Tremulous 20060704 (no idea what the number is for) and in that folder is the base folder, some PDF documents (like the readme) and a folder called src. then at the bottom it has the tremulous alias in there.

so if the /applications/tremulous is a folder with the alias in it, yes i have that.

[Archangel]

the tremulous server shouldn't require sdl...

[Laencii]

I'm new.... my problem is this:

Why says "Permission denied"?

Sorry for my english, but i'm spanish ^^

[Archangel]

chmod +x tremded.ub

[Laencii]

I have been following a guide and put it when he told me

EDIT:

Terminal

Help plz 

[Archangel]

you need to put a . at the end of the cp line

[Laencii]

TKS   but see the Terminal

TERMINAL ELIMINATED BY LAENCII


EDIT: OK, y server is running, but in LAN

How can I put on the internet?
I have to configure?

EDIT 2:
Despite being admin, I do not have permission to commands.
Apart from that, I can not change the name or description of the server.
And when I put a command in the terminal tells me:
couldn't exec (commandname).cfg
only on: sdmode1/2, unlaggedon/off...

[Archangel]

!setlevel your_name 5
g_unlagged 1
g_suddendeathmode 2

you need to set server name and such in server.cfg

it'll show up as LAN from your computer, if you did it right.

[Laencii]

OK, some errors are already fixed, but when i run a command from the game, said
Permission Denied

In some others commands:

unlaggedon/off
ffon/off
clanmatch/unclanmatch
bffon/off
humanstage1/2/3
alienstage1/2/3
shareon/off
sdmode1/sdmode2
stage1/2/3
mm1on/nomm1

give me this error:
couldn't exec (commandname).cfg

And finally, i can't configure the server.cfg file despite change, I get the same name

Sry for my English

PD: The server sets LAN and Internet
And i'm lvl 6 admin

[Archangel]

you need to create the files in base/ with those commands inside.

[Laencii]

the error was in the QVM, but it is solved  

What I can't change the name and description of the server and always will change from file server.cfg.

The tutorial helped me a lot.

Congratulations!

EDIT:

rectified, i can't edit the file server.cfg, nothing

[Eleazar]

I just created a script to create a server on the mac it does not set up the server.cfg though (It's very primitive).  Hopefully by this december I should have a full program to install and configure a server.  It is only for the Mac.

[julespino]

ummm it wont let me save an empty admin file in text edit
why ??

[Kiwi]

You should be able too.  Most of the time I just open a used .cfg file (there all over the place in your tremulous base) and put what you want in it and save it somewhere else.  This method tends to get most of the extension stuff worked out.

Alright, I need a hand. I'd really like to start a server up, but God hates me. Here's the main problems:

mv: tremded.ub: No such file or directory
mv: game.qvm: No such file or directory

Although they quite obviously exist, otherwise I would not be able to run Tremulous. They all are in the base folder except for Server Commands. This is from using that 'groove' fellows guide that I downloaded. When using the regular guide in the thread, I follow all the steps successfully until I reach that second CD command with all the +'s in it. In which case This:

Been awhile since I've been on here or even looked at this post. Thanks to everyone to keeping it alive! I'm not even sure if I remember how to do any of this stuff anymore it's been so long!

[LunaticJames]

It won't let me save the server.cfg textedit file. Anyone know what I did wrong? 

[Gregstein]

Check permissions in the file–if not, make new and replace it.


BTW. I found I cannot start serv on mac. I did as tut says but i recieve this error:

What makes this error and how can iI fix it?

[David]

You have a mismatched server a game.qvm.  The QVM you're using will probably recommend a server that works.

Sorry, I'm alien and I don't understand humanisch. What do you mean mismatched–It's Trem v. GPP1 and I did nothing with .qvm–no bots, no download.

I tried to start server using older version of Trem(the one before GPP) and i recieved error same as earlier. Funny or not.



EDIT: Now I feel like one. Because I've got QVM, but I spend time looking at it and praying.

Edit no 2:Sorry for bothering you. Got Off…

[Gregstein]

I tried combination of Lakitu's QVM 5.5 + MG's Tremded.ub.
IT DOES NOT WORK TOO.
