Deprecated Darkstar fourms

Hi All,

I've built DSP in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS through Oracle VMBox.

I have the search and game running, but can't get the login server to boot. Goal right now is to just have it locally set up in my network as a VM to learn on.

Here's the error I've run into.

ffxi@ffxidsp:~/darkstar$ ./dsconnect
[Status] Memory manager initialised: log/DSP.leaks
[Info] DarkStar - Git Revision Hash: Unknown.
[05/May 21:11][Info] Console Silent Setting: 0
[05/May 21:11][Error] make_listen_bind: bind failed (socket #3, code 98)!

Zone IP is default 127.0.0.1, I've edited all the .conf's to use the correct DB. Followed the guide on the wiki/ here.

Do I need to push any firewall settings? Do I need to bring up the login on a second IP?

Here's the startup log for the other two.

Search:

ffxi@ffxidsp:~$ cd darkstar/
ffxi@ffxidsp:~/darkstar$ ./dssearch
pthread_attr_init: Success

Thanks in advance for all the help!

error 98 is "address in use", you either have dsconnect open already or something else using the port

Right. So, I can't alias 127.0.0.1 for the server, so I should recalculate and set up for my wan IP?

its your port, not IP

Sorry, let me edit this.

I have the login server up, just having issues connecting via the VM.

Generally I'd just connect to the VM via IP address, but Im assuming I'll have to pull some trickery to test from my machine. I'll play around and see if I can get it to work.

More Edits:

Had to move the VM to bridge mode in order to connect.

Stuck on downloading data/ 3301 connection timed out. Good news is being able to have my account stored on the db and actually being able to connect. Guess that's the next step.

oh, not sure then for VMs, i don't really do any networking through my VMs

I managed to get it to talk to the game server. Ended up changing zone IP to the new IP address generated after I put the VM in bridged mode.

Now I need to figure out why I was getting client cannot recieve packet/invalid packet after zone counter was increased :O.

I'll sleep on it for now. Thanks for the help. prodded me enough in the right direction to have a guide for Ubuntu done.

I've completed the setup for vm.

Install VM Software of Choice and set lan to bridged mode.
Install Ubuntu 14.04
Follow the Regular and Linux guides (on wiki and this forum) to get package installs corrected.
Install/Update via git.

Update zoneIP to use VM Bridged IP address, not 127.0.0.1, commit the change.

restart login/search/game.

Create account and log in! Thanks for the help. You guys can close/lock this.
