Public - That server is currently unavailable

[Rhodan]

Ok, I've gotten as far as having my public server show up in the public login server listing but, when I choose my server, it says the server isn't available.

- I saw no errors in the world startup at all.
- Ports 9000, 7000-7150 are both set to direct udp and tcp to the server lan IP.

Config file is:

<server>
<world>
<shortname>Single</shortname>
<longname>Singularity</longname>

<!-- Only specify these two if you really think you need to. (read: You don't) -->
<!-- <address>192.168.0.114</address> -->
<!-- <localaddress>192.168.0.114</localaddress> -->

<!-- Loginserver information. Defaults shown -->
<loginserver>

<!-- <host>192.168.0.114</host> -->
<port>5998</port>
<account></account>
<password></password>
</loginserver>

<!-- Server status. Default is unlocked -->
<locked/>

<!-- Sets the ip/port for the tcp connections. Both zones and console (if enabled). Defaults are shown -->
<tcp ip="localhost" port="9000" telnet="disable"/>

<!-- Sets the shared key used by zone/launcher to connect to world -->

<!-- Enable and set the port for the HTTP service. Defaults are shown -->
<http port="9080" enabled="false" mimefile="mime.types" />
</world>

<!-- Chatserver (channels) information. Defaults shown -->
<chatserver>

</zones>

</database>

<!-- <logsuffix>.log</logsuffix> -->
<!-- <exe>zone.exe or ./zone</exe> -->
<!-- <timers restart="10000" reterminate="10000"> -->
</launcher>

<!-- File locations. Defaults shown -->
<files>

</files>
<!-- Directory locations. Defaults shown -->
<directories>
<!-- <maps>Maps</maps> -->
<!-- <quests>quests</quests> -->
<!-- <plugins>plugins</plugins> -->
</directories>
</server>

Any ideas?

P.S. The server is on a different machine than the client but both go through the same gateway so the external IP is the same. I would expect a different error though, if that was the problem.

Arg -ignore the above. I just looked at the DB account table and saw the lsid field... Entered my lsid into the account I wanted to use and voila I'm in!

Thanks for putting up with me :oops:

Damnit, and I was hoping to dish a good flame out here. :)

You can unlock your server long enough to create the account for you - or stick it in with the name and LS ID like you did. I believe the minimum status to bypass a <locked> system is 100. But you have to be known first... which you solved. Good work. :)
