UT99 Linux Compress Script

[Zasz]

Hi all,

I have translated the code from compress2uz, an utility to compress an UT Server on Windows, for Linux.

But I have a little problem, while it begins to compress, a system signal interrupt the process.

This is the code from my Script :

echo "Compressor-script for UT Linux Server"
echo "Step 1 : Creating Compressed Folder"
mkdir Compressed
echo "Step 2 : Copying Files"
echo "Copying Maps Folder"
cp ./Maps/*.unr ./Compressed
echo "Copying Music Folder"
cp ./Music/*.umx ./Compressed
echo "Copying Sounds Folder"
cp ./Sounds/*.uax ./Compressed
echo "Copying Textures Folder"
cp ./Textures/*.utx ./Compressed
echo "Copying System Folder"
cp ./System/*.u ./Compressed
echo "Copying Files Finished"
echo
echo "Step 3 : Compressing"
cd System
./ucc-bin compress ./Compressed/*
echo "Step 4 : Cleaning ..."
cd ..
rm ./Compressed/*.unr
rm ./Compressed/*.utx
rm ./Compressed/*.uax
rm ./Compressed/*.umx
rm ./Compressed/*.u
echo "Cleaning Finished !"
echo "Step 5 : Moving Files to Redirect Folder"
mv ./Compressed/*.uz /var/www/uz
rmdir Compressed
echo "Compress Finished"

Result :

Signal: SIGSEGV [segmentation fault]
Aborting.

Any ideas ?

On Linux there's not much you can do about seg fault. Rather annoying. Why not just run compress a lot or ucc via wine ?

[Zasz]

Because i haven't GUI on a Debian Dedicated Server.

I have only Text Mode, I use PuTTY to set it up

[SoNY_scarface]

Ucc doesn't require gui and it might be more simple to do it that way. In fact I can't remember if the Linux server install has it already....I might have something from when I hosted Linux I'll cheat this evening

for i in `ls -1 ./Compressed/*`; do ./ucc-bin compress $i; done

I have tried and it does that

Compressing /home/utserver/ut-server/Compressed/2k4Combos.u (777090 bytes)
Could not create /home/utserver/ut-server/Compressed/2k4Combos.u.uz

History: UCompressCommandlet::Main

Exiting due to error

Compressed Folder has '766' rights.

[AnthraX]

perhaps you should chmod it to 777 then

[Zasz]

Same error with 777

[back4more]

isn't there a script somewhere for linux written by rork perhaps , that compresses and uploads to redirect like RSC for windows?

@Zasz there is also a nifty little program from memory called WinSCP which does other useful things from Windows to linux servers , iirc from when
I used to run Linux servers.

Check the permissions for ucc

Also please run:

ls -ld /home/utserver/ut-server/Compressed/

And paste here the result

Right. ucc-bin refuses to compress for me for files not in the same folder.

Edit*: I'll think of something.. I haven't yet made a compress script but I will...

[~V~]

By the way, your original script contains an error:

./ucc-bin compress ./Compressed/*

should be

./ucc-bin compress ../Compressed/*

Note the two .

Try this. There are a few vars to set at the start. But I set those as your posts suggest they ought to be.
