UT2004 linux server webadmin missin maps "fix"

[roofjumper]

I have this problem but with different specifics. When I go to add maps to the map cycle it doesnt save or add maps to the cycle. When I go to map in current it doesnt have any maps listed. If I go to game type it doesnt have any gametypes listed there either. I have downloaded that file(CacheRecords.ucl from the FAQ) and nothing changed. what do I do? 8O

roofjumper,

dreamss' fix does work. Here's exactly what worked for me: download and copy the tar file as he describes, then go to the homedirectory of the user that runs the server (if the user is bob, type cd ~bob). Ok now lets suppose your ut2004 directory is called ut2004. Now in bob's home directory, remove the directory .ut2004 (note the period), you can do this by rm -fr .ut2004. Now when you start up your server, at the very end of your start command, put -nohomedir. For ex:

./ucc-bin server ONS-TORLAN?game=Onslaught.ONSOnslaughtGame ini=UT2004.ini -nohomedir

This works great for me. Also keep in mind if you want to add more maps to the dropdown, you need to click 'Defaults' at the top, then just add as many maps as you want and save. Hope this helps

I did that, dont have any more .ut2004 dir, I have always used -nohomedir on my command line. I still cant add maps, still dont have gametypes in the dropdown or maps in the dropdown... Im lost... could it be that Im running the game in /home/roofjumper/System/ ? I guess I will just backup my ini and go from there............................ Ill post up if i fix anything... thanks for help btw

mine was working fine, but at some point it went horribly wrong. i've tried everything in this thread to no avail. i didn't change anything at all, i just tried to start my server up after being shut down for the evening. i get a message that the webadmin is running on port 80, cool no other web server any ways. the next line reads WebServer DM-Flux2.WebServer (Function UWeb.WebServer.BeginPlay:0227) BindPort: bind failed, even as root. am i doing something wrong here? i've enclosed a readout of the server starting up

[edit] now nothing at all shows up, except the admin password box, then nothing at all

./ucc-bin server DM-Flux2?game=XGame.xDeathMatch ini=UT2004.ini -nohomedir
