Big problem starting NAW on linux, AIX working fine

[Da_V2]

Hi everyone,

i'm having problems installing this mod, aix and bf2 servers on my debian are working just great, but there no way to start a naw server. 
Is there a special thing i need to do to make it work ??
Please i know some of you have already done it, i read all topics in this section and still i can't start a LAN server.

Thanks for your help !

did you use the new NAW Linux Server files?

[Da_V2]

Thanks for replying, yes of course ! I'm not a total noob... aix and bf2 linux servers are working fine. 
I tried starting naw with the same command line as the others :
./start.sh +modPath mods/naw   

I used the files from "naw_5.2_linux_server.zip"
I also tried the python script and the naw.sh that Master}{ gave in another post...


Here is the problem reported by error output : (./start.sh +modPath mods/naw 2>errors.txt)

FATAL ERROR: Debug assertion failed!

Any ideas ?

[PuckerFactor]

I have never setup or run a linux server. However, I do know that linux files should all be lower case.

scoringCommon has an uppercase C. The file that "python/bf2/__init__.py" it refers to "....Battlefield 2 Server\mods\naw\python\game is in lowercase (as it should be)

so either edit __init__.py in line 75 to scoringcommon ...or rename the file in \naw\python\game to scoringCommon.

let me know how you get on 

[Da_V2]

  In fact you're a linux God, lol

I renamed the file scoringcommon.py to scoringCommon.py and for the first time the server is up and running.

Thank you very much

Hmmm, Puckerfactor a god? Linux God??? wow... usually he's just an asshole on the posts hence the name... lol (just messing with ya Puckerfactor delete this if you want)

[PuckerFactor]

Da_V2, really glad it's working for you now 

CiWoot, you are right sir....most of the time I'm an asshole...but I'm really trying harder to be nicer 

[CiWoot]

Puckerfactor... that's good... I should probably follow suit and be nice..

but damnit.. it's just not me.

I installed a new BF2 server over at Gamerservers and am on a Linux OS. Originaly I had the exact same error as DA_V2

stderr:   File "python/bf2/__init__.py", line 75, in init_module
stderr:     import game.scoringCommon
stderr: ImportError: No module named scoringCommon

After fixing the __init__.py file I still cannot get the server running. All that I get in the log is a Debug Assertion failed.

Any other suggetions on where to look?

[PuckerFactor]

when you say you fixed the __init__.py file...what did you do? ...because all that DA_V2 did was rename "scoringcommon" to "scoringCommon"

there maybe other calls for the uppercase "scoringCommon" from other python files...better to rename it rather than change all the references in other python scripts.

have you tried restoring the original __init__.py  and then just renaming "Battlefield 2 Server\mods\naw\python\game\scoringcommon" to "scoringCommon" ?

by the way...I'm gonna re-upload the linux files with a replaced "scoringCommon" file....this seems to be a Common problem.

[bNasty]

OMG, I AM SOOOO STUPID. 
Someone please come and take my linux server admin card away, and beat me over the head with it.

I guess I just haven't enough sleep lately. I know better than to do what I did. I shoulda known to look at the file and not the code that references the file. What a dip I am. ooops.

Thanks a bunch PuckerFactor for setting this boy straight.

[PuckerFactor]

Glad it's working for you now 


...what's Linux?

[Da_V2]

Lol i'm not the only one
