I read the logs, and saw this: [code]Warning, you are a moron. Do not run as root.[/code] So, lesson learned... I was a moron haha logged as normal user without sudo permissions, ran ./startup & and wouldn't you know it, worked! For future people that seem to have a running mud but inability to telnet into the MUD... log off root and log into your server as a normal user and run the script. Thank you again for the help guys. In regards to the buffer overf https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/compile-error--overflows-4458/&p=20984#p20984 Sun, 5 Sep 2010 18:39:53 CDT AFKMud Support & Development nobody@example.com (Daygon) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/compile-error--overflows-4458/&p=20983#p20983 I did not try [i]ps ux[/I] but it was listed under [I]ps x[/I]. That's what I figured. Thanks for the help. Off to figure out WTF the hangup is, ssh, apache, FTP all open, thanks again Samson :grinning: :headbang: https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/compile-error--overflows-4458/&p=20983#p20983 Sun, 5 Sep 2010 17:25:30 CDT AFKMud Support & Development nobody@example.com (Daygon) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/compile-error--overflows-4458/&p=20982#p20982 If you do a [b]ps ux[/b] do you see your process listed there? If so then the startup worked and the MUD is running. Which would mean there's something funky going on in your network setup. If it's not on the process list then something is preventing it from starting and you should be able to find some reason why in the logs directory. https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/compile-error--overflows-4458/&p=20982#p20982 Sun, 5 Sep 2010 16:40:12 CDT AFKMud Support & Development nobody@example.com (Samson) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/compile-error--overflows-4458/&p=20981#p20981 Ok, got my issue resolved. Not the way I'd have liked to, but it worked and will require very little learning curve. I scratched Ubuntu as my server and loaded the latest of Fedora. Gathered my required packages and successfully achieved a clean make. I did receive an error [code][root@server src]# ./startup & [1] 2216 'root@server src]# Unknown option: `- Usage: csh [ -bcdefilmnqstvVxX ] [ argument ... ]. [1]+ Exit 1 ./startup [/code] However, opening in gedit https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/compile-error--overflows-4458/&p=20981#p20981 Sun, 5 Sep 2010 15:27:58 CDT AFKMud Support & Development nobody@example.com (Daygon) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/compile-error--overflows-4458/&p=20980#p20980 Ah, yeah. AFKMud didn't come with the newbie zones before and I forgot to connect the chargen zone to it when they got added. Also just recompiled the base and have no issues with gcc 4.4.4. https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/compile-error--overflows-4458/&p=20980#p20980 Sun, 5 Sep 2010 14:48:43 CDT AFKMud Support & Development nobody@example.com (Samson) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/compile-error--overflows-4458/&p=20979#p20979 It's unlikely that the game would work fine with one compiler and crash with another. (It is however likely that different versions will give different warnings.) That's why I'm curious to know what exactly is going wrong and how to OP is using the term "buffer overflow". https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/compile-error--overflows-4458/&p=20979#p20979 Sun, 5 Sep 2010 12:22:03 CDT AFKMud Support & Development nobody@example.com (David Haley) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/compile-error--overflows-4458/&p=20978#p20978 I tried it in cygwin and had no problems out of any of it. I did notice one odd thing though Samson, when I created a new character I never got past the room where you could say reset to start over. Maybe I missed something but didn't see any way out of it for a new character. https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/compile-error--overflows-4458/&p=20978#p20978 Sun, 5 Sep 2010 11:39:43 CDT AFKMud Support & Development nobody@example.com (Remcon) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/compile-error--overflows-4458/&p=20974#p20974 Those all appear to be the result of some new gcc warning, what version of gcc are you using on that system? None of that should be generating buffer overflows though. You'll definitely need to get Valgrind working to pin that one down. https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/compile-error--overflows-4458/&p=20974#p20974 Thu, 2 Sep 2010 13:45:58 CDT AFKMud Support & Development nobody@example.com (Samson)
