Title: Assist Server Manager stuck on loading assets
Post by: hitman on Tuesday, October 10, 2017, 08:11:43 AM
When I press Create New Server it opens new dialog with Downloading assets and stays there just like in this pic:

How long was it stuck like that?
That's some Mac, right? Did you try running it as an admin/super user? Other than that, I'm not sure I can be of help. Never used a Mac, personally.

In "Specify download server" choose "AAO25.com" close the app and try again.
It is Linux teddy  :up:

Looked to me like the results I got googling Mac OS at first at least. I guess I have a different distro/desktop environment.

It downloaded from SourceForge after some tries, but now I'm getting this:

(https://www.dropbox.com/s/5249lbnczpehg8n/Screenshot%20from%202017-10-10%2019-13-29.png?raw=1)

I was getting it before too, by clicking anything actually.
In console it says:

sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-pixbuf:i386

That removed the warning in console! .. but the exception is still thrown (and the app quits as it's critical). I guess it's two unrelated issues. Any other ideas?

I get this error by doing basically any kind of click anywhere, then it just quits without further warning as soon as I click OK.

I am using Ubuntu 17.04 Linux, with Mac theme.

Sadly I'm not a Linux user and personally I don't have nothing in mind that could help you at all.
Have you tried to Run the app from another location? Run it as a Superuser?

Post by: hitman on Friday, October 13, 2017, 06:30:59 AM
Yes, tried, didn't work, although I get different output in console when using sudo or not. Without sudo I get:

Code: [Select]
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "atk-bridge"
GLib-GIO-Message: Using the 'memory' GSettings backend.  Your settings will not be saved or shared with other applications.

Surely there are people running server on Linux, no? I have seen some servers mention it.

Googling your error message led me to:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/548557/how-to-install-gail-and-atk-bridge

While the post is about 14.04, the accepted answer said they experienced the same problem(s) in 16.04 which means it's possible it is still the case in 17.04

Most likely you're running 64bit Linux, but AA is a 32bit application. So therefore, I'd postulate you need to (as on the second and not the first, accepted, answer):
Code: [Select]
apt-get install libatk-adaptor:i386 libgail-common:i386

Get the dedicated server: https://sourceforge.net/projects/aa25assist/files/Binaries/ldedisrv.zip/download (https://sourceforge.net/projects/aa25assist/files/Binaries/ldedisrv.zip/download)
Extract the files in a new folder, now get this "fix":
http://aao25.com/Possessed/25srvnew-lin.7z (http://aao25.com/Possessed/25srvnew-lin.7z)
RENAME 25srvnew to "server-bin" and do "chmod +x server-bin"
Edit "AA25.ini" to configure your server as you wish.
Code: [Select]
Now edit the aa25.ini file with your required settings:
nano aa25.ini

Start the Server:
./server-bin GLOBAL map-filename

(replace map-filename with your choosen map, bridge, insurgent_camp, radio_tower, etc.)
(Optional command-line arguments  -Port=1716  -Multihome=0.0.0.0  override settings in aa25.ini)


Additional pb commands can be added by creating ServerMessage.cfg in the "pb" folder and adding them there.

You might have to install this to get it to work:
apt-get install lib32stdc++6 lib32stdc++6:i386
http://aao25.com/wiki/index.php?title=Create_A_Server (http://aao25.com/wiki/index.php?title=Create_A_Server)

OR Open the game straight from the game folder and run it offline.
PATH is: /home/USERNAME/25Assist/System/, run the ArmyOps file.
(I have never run the game like this on linux, so idk if it will work that simple)
While in game press ' or " and type: open MapNameHere, map name should be the real name of the map file as Bridge or Urban_Assault, navigate to /home/USERNAME/25Assist/Maps to see all the map names there.

Title: Problems with password and login
Post by: hitman on Monday, October 16, 2017, 15:35:24 PM
Hey,

I am trying to run a server (locally first), everything seems fine, except when I try to open it with
Code: [Select]
open 127.0.0.1it gives an error that I need a password to join (although I'm sure it's empty in the aa25.ini). What I found so far is that somehow the server puts a random password everytime I start the server, it writes it to aa25srv.ini .. but even when joining with that random password I get kicked out of server as "Unauthorized login" (it does load the map first, so that password matches).

Question is how to remove the player password entirely and how to do test join the local server?

Thanks.

If you're using Assist Server Manager, then you need to join the server through Assist, otherwise you will have an unauthorized login.
Title: Re: Critical error on any action in assist server manager

You most likely need to enabled NAT loopback. There's a bunch of threads about this on the forums.

You can join servers that are on the Assist browsers.
If yours is not on there, you need to register it on battletracker.com and (if you haven't already) set up NAT loopback.
Title: Re: Problems with password and login
Post by: hitman on Saturday, October 21, 2017, 07:43:16 AM
Thanks, what about the password problem? I can't seem to make the server passwordless because it generates a random password every time I launch and makes it a private server.

Hey,

I set up a server on Hetzner, did everything according to instructions, but when I try to launch the server with
Code: [Select]
./server-bin GLOBAL MP_Steamroller I get an error "Segmentation fault" and the process exits.

Maybe of some help: if I try to launch the game with
Code: [Select]
./armyops-bin I get

isn't there any instance of the server still running? if you see multiple query port erros while the server is running and populated, probably your server is under ddos attack.

also, have you installed this?
http://aao25.com/Possessed/25srvnew-lin.7z (http://aao25.com/Possessed/25srvnew-lin.7z)
RENAME 25srvnew to "server-bin" and do "chmod +x server-bin"
it will prevent server from restarting if having query errors.
