Server crashed

Are there any stability issues with AllSrv? I've restarted the service for now.

Also I'd left TAG out for now, whilst I just got the damn server running It's installed now, let me know if it's not working.

There were a couple of last minute teething issues with the server (the VM install, not AllSrv).

Will have them sorted out shortly, and then it should be smooth sailing

edit - should be running now let me know if there are any issues..

QUOTE (w0dk4 @ Feb 11 2009, 07:42 PM) You are aware the 3FL servers are running in the beta lobby and not the main lobby, right?

Yes, as of today because I finally got a chance to setup the XP server in a VM and get AllSrv running. The machine is on a new IP that TE needs to approve. I pointed it ...

QUOTE (Dogbones @ Feb 8 2009, 06:58 PM) Why not run Win XP (or even NT) in a VM on the Win2008 server box instead of 'throwing up a linux box or something'?

Throwing a VM up on a linux box I said.. the blade chassis holding the 2k8 server also has 9 linux servers, a couple of which are basically ...

I'm speaking to him aswell :)

It may be a problem with AllSrv running on Win2008Server. I've just installed the server app on my work desktop and it started and attempted ...

If your'e still only getting that one line in the logs, I wonder if its possible the AGC DLL isn't registered properly, or if it's having issues (stalling) initialising DirectPlay....

Maybe try re-registering the server ...

I've just blown it all away and started again.

Ah, I was worried this was the log file:
That's all it contains. One entry from 3 days ago.

If someone could just point me at some logs anywhere I could probably figure it out.

All I have right now is the service showing as active in the list, and the registry settings I copied out of the running a server thread (and customized obviously )

I'm pretty sure it's most likely I've done something wrong.

Been watching the server and messing about with settings, every time I restart it I don't see any attempts to contact a lobby server (or any remote server for that matter).

Any server admins want to have a chat? :)

It may be that it ...
