Server hosting - RunUO

gregandevelyn2 · 04-03-2005, 03:08 PM

I am trying to host for a friend. He sent the server from Denmark. when i load it up it gets to the world loading part then it does nothing even if i let it run for hours it never gets past world loading.
Anyone else ever come across this or have ideas on how to fix it?

Is there any error displayed in the console? Is there any error log generated?

no errors at all just wont load past the world loading

and this exact copy runs fine on his comp.
However he doesnt have the ram to run it with minimal lag.
so he sent it to me on a ftp server i setup.
it loads without errors all the way to world loading where it just comes to a stand still.
it doesnt log anything in logs. it's not even logging a new date so i dont think it gets that far :0)

also i have hosted with the same run uo 1.0.0 build 36918. I have had a server up and running succesfully and can still just not this one

so i dont think it has anything to do with my computer system maybe it's the directory? but what file tells it to load the world and where from?

ok i have narrowed it down to this.
if i remove the items folder it works with the items folder it does not

You should use the button to edit your last post when you want to say something more, and nobody has answered yet...
Ask to your friend to send you His Items folder, and all other things he had on his RunUO installation

Did you copy the zlib.dll file to the new directory?

If you are running two servers then did you remember to change the port on one of them?

And do not bump your own posts, use the edit button. Ryan didn't give you an edit button just so that it would look pretty on your screen.

I shutdown the first shard but i made no changes to ports? I am not running 2 shards. Do i still need seperate ports. Didnt notice the edit button. Thanx man!!
Natural born killers rules! The zlib.dll file is present in the new directory.

My avatar is not Woody Harrelson. Have him send you files from the 'Backups' directory to replace the data in the 'Saves' directory with.
