cannot connect to local vm

Jokerpatch · #1 10-21-2017, 02:51 PM

i recently started playing on eqemu again. i decided it would be cool to learn how games like this actually work and set up my own private server and start playing around with modifying the game.

- i created a virtual machine with ubuntu server and virtual box
- i downloaded the install.sh on github using this url: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/EQ...ler/install.sh which by the way may be wrong, i had to use raw.github.com for wget.
- i ran the installer, everything went fine, took about half an hour or so, i was at work so didn't watch the clock. though the first try took almost 6 hours so i remade the vm and started again.
- i went through the changes to eqemu_config, login.ini and eqhost to account for my IP which i made static so it wouldn't change on me after closing the vm.

at this point i tried to login, no connection so i went rummaging through the source code and from the looks of it i think the world exec starts up everything including the login server, still no connection.

i tried running eqlaunch after that, still nothing.

i notice the server_start/stop/luanch, i checked out parameters i tried running server_launch but i got sh: 1: ./loginserver not found not sure if i'm supposed to run that after world or eqlaunch.

i would like to know what exactly i need to do to get this running, i'm rather frustrated with it at the moment. i am looking for the steps to go through to start the server whenever i run my vm.

i've looked around at different sources cannot find anything really useful. i have a feeling its my config file as well because there are several different setups out there tat i've noticed.

here is my eqemu_config.xml

Code:

<?xml version="1.0">

If you are trying to connect over the local loginserver and not the public EQEmu loginserver, you need to start the loginserver. Edit server_start.sh so it looks like this:

Code:

#!/usr/bin/env bash
./shared_memory
perl server_launcher.pl loginserver zones="30" silent_launcher &
echo "Server started - use server_status.sh to check server status"

Jokerpatch · #3 10-21-2017, 05:37 PM

i actually did that once but it continually printed this:

Code:

sh: 1: ./loginserver not found

Thalix · #4 10-21-2017, 05:38 PM

Oh and you should have loginserver as binary link at /home/eqemu, source /home/eqemu/server_source/Server/build/bin/loginserver

If not try this:

Code:

cd /home/eqmeu
ln -s /home/eqemu/server_source/Server/build/bin/loginserver .

(or home/eqemu/server_source_bots if you have bots active)

Thalix · #5 10-21-2017, 05:43 PM

A reason could also be that you have compiled without the loginserver. In that case:

Code:

cd /home/eqemu/server_source/Server
rm CMakeCache.txt
cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -DEQEMU_BUILD_LOGIN=ON -DEQEMU_BUILD_LUA=ON -DEQEMU_DISABLE_LOGSYS=ON -DEQEMU_BUILD_PERL=ON
make clean
make -j4
cp -a ./bin/* ./build/bin/

and then the ln -s .... from above

Jokerpatch · #6 10-21-2017, 05:47 PM

i had it in a different order than what you posted, i had loginserver at the end, i copied what you just posted, and i got a whole bunch of stuff i hadn't seen yet.

i do still get the message above but there's more to it:

sh: 1: ./loginserver not foundP Queryserv: UP Loginserver: UP

i can't get it to stop printing

Thalix · #7 10-21-2017, 05:49 PM

Then you need to recompile the sourcecode and build the loginserver.

Jokerpatch · #8 10-21-2017, 06:35 PM

i started to recompile everything, it got to about 65%:

Code:

i'm still trying to figure it out but i thought i would post it in case someone already knows the problem.

Thalix · #9 10-21-2017, 07:22 PM

I think you need libsodium:

libsodium-dev - Network communication, cryptography and signaturing library - headers
libsodium18 - Network communication, cryptography and signaturing library

Code:

apt-get install libsodium-dev libsodium18

Then you need to restart the compilation, starting with "rm CMakeCache.txt" ...

Thalix · #10 10-22-2017, 05:55 AM

So you got it working?

Jokerpatch · #11 10-22-2017, 11:45 AM

no, those headers are already installed via the install.sh script. still get those errors above. i would have told last night but i had to let my laptop dry out, because some water landed on it.

Jokerpatch · #12 10-22-2017, 02:33 PM

the problems i found were in this function:

Code:

std::string eqcrypt_argon2(const std::string &msg)
{
	std::string ret;
	ret.resize(crypto_pwhash_STRBYTES);

	if (crypto_pwhash_str(&ret[0], &msg[0], msg.length(), crypto_pwhash_OPSLIMIT_SENSITIVE, crypto_pwhash_MEMLIMIT_SENSITIVE) != 0) {
		return "";
	}

	return ret;
}

the crypto_pwhash functions and variables dont' exist, what i'm thinking is someone was changing something in the source and forgot to remove old calls or just didn't update them. this function does the same things as another one: just calling the functions that do exist:

Code:

std::string eqcrypt_scrypt(const std::string &msg)
{
	std::string ret;
	ret.resize(crypto_pwhash_scryptsalsa208sha256_STRBYTES);

	if (crypto_pwhash_scryptsalsa208sha256_str(&ret[0], &msg[0], msg.length(),
		crypto_pwhash_scryptsalsa208sha256_OPSLIMIT_SENSITIVE, crypto_pwhash_scryptsalsa208sha256_MEMLIMIT_SENSITIVE) != 0) {
		return "";
	}

	return ret;
}

so it compiled fine after i changed the calls to the correct functions declarations, the rebuild is still moving along so i'll see if the server works when its done.

Jokerpatch · #13 10-22-2017, 03:00 PM

that did fix my build problem, though i'm not sure if it's a long term fix. i can get to the server select screen now, but my server isn's on it. i'm sure i just missed something i'll figure that out later.

i do appreciate the help Thalix, thank you

Jokerpatch · #14 10-24-2017, 09:25 AM

i did fix the build issue, i had an issue of not being able to see my server on the select list; i figured that problem but now i get 1017 error when i click play after selecting my server. usually about a 20 second delay before it pops the error.

my eqemu server and loginserver are on the same vm on my laptop. i'm not sure if there should be a difference between using localhost vs. 127.0.0.1 i was trying all kinds of things just to get my server to show up on the list.

if i did somethings wrong i would really appreciate some explanation on what i did wrong and why it has to work a certain way.

i solved my problem. i had to add address and localaddress tags to config.xml

Code:

<address>local ip address</address
<localaddress>127.0.0.1</localaddress>

now i can log in create my characters, play with zones and junk.
