Exclamation Windows and UT2004 Dedicated Server Setup Help

I know this question has been asked a lot and I apologize for the n00bness.

I will be hosting a LAN party for my community college. I have taken the first step by using the .ini generator listed at the left of the Unrealadmin homepage. I have the .ini saved and ready with my settings. What I need to know is how I can create a shortcut to run a dedicated server and execute my .ini file. I would preferr to use the UT2004 Dedicated server files only instead of having to install the full game on the server(s). I've tried this but when I run ucc.exe it only opens a command prompt window and then immediately closes.

I've tried searching the FAQ section but I always get a No Results Found.

Also, how can I use the web admin? Is there anything I should know relating to hosting this LAN party? About the only thing I can think that you should know is that there will be no Internet access for the LAN party PCs, but there will be on the currently setup student PCs(the IT department wants us to stay off the college network).

If you can help me out or point me to a good Windows version of the UT2004 server setup guide I would greatly appreciate it! I'm good at setting up and configuring Quake 3 server configs/shortcuts so I am thinking UT2004 won't be much harder. Once again I apologize for the n00bness. Thanks for any help!

You should be starting ucc.exe from a batch file. Or are you just double clicking on ucc.exe? The following link shows you how to set up a batch file with the proper ucc command line to start a server...

I have a Problem too!

I will use OLStats (maybe 2.20) with Dedicated Server (as mutator).
I think I do the installation right, i hope so.

I have start a DM-game with me (as server and player) and bots.
At the beginn of the second game i disconnect and close ut2004.

Now i have 2 log files and at the time i will save the information to the sql-server (logs.php?pass=XXX) it tells me that the "insufficient players" at first game and the second game (sorry i forgot).

PLEASE help me! Sorry for the bad english.

Matches are only logged if there are 2 or more human players. It will not log bot matches unless you specify as such in your config files. The fact that you got back the "insufficient players" thing is good though because you know it is working.

On a side note, olstats 3.0 is out. Much improved from older versions.

Yea, if both players do not finish the game or are not playing for a specific amount of time it will not record the match either. I should have mentioned that earlier.
