Title: Missing file on server when tryin to update
Post by: zyrom on February 10, 2006, 11:58:09 pm

the updater fails with a 404 error on the the file:
http://www.psmirror.org/psupdater//art/art/sounds/gui/bttn_scrolldown.wav

going there with a browser confirms that the file is non existent...

is there a way around this ?

Get it here.
http://rapidshare.de/files/12988239/bttn_scrolldown.wav.html

Save it in planeshift/art/sounds/gui

Hope this works.

There you are:
http://rapidshare.de/files/13013058/blue_waterbarrier_rel.wav.html

This file, anyway, belongs to an spell that is not yet publicly avaiable, so you really won\'t notice the difference when playing the game.

thanks, of course it now complains about the next file:
art/sounds/magic/blue_icyblast_rel.wav

the magic directory btw, did not exist prior so i had to create it...

I get the distinct feeling that this thread might continue for a bit :)

ok, just that the updater complains about it and wont continue...
is there a way to skip stuff in the updater ? or reverting it to a not \" bleeding edge, mirrors not updatet yet\" version :) ?

Or am i going about this in the a completely wrong way ?

Background: used the  \"Easy PlaneShift build script\" to build the code, no problems there, followed the Readme that says to run: psrun updater -auto ...

Files in these mirrors are for the current official version (from 2005-11-30). If you built Planeshift yourself from CVS sources, then the updater downloads some configuration files in the data directory that might be not compatible with your version. This is just a warning in case you get some strange errors.

For the mirrors, make sure that you have all five mirrors entered into your updaterconfig.xml file. You can find them here (http://www.planeshift3d.com/wbboard/thread.php?threadid=21380&boardid=17).

Ok.
The magic sound folder, zipped.
http://rapidshare.de/files/13015540/magic.zip.html

Also, try editing the file updaterconfig.xml and see if activeid is set to 3 instead of 1.
Mirror 3 was one of the best working, not time ago, but lately there was a problem with its quota, I hope those problems are solved by now.

You probably have something like this.
Try to put 3 instead of 1. See if that lets the updater work better.

Thanks, had that one figured out already, with the help of the forums.

mmm well that\'s the last folder in sound directory...
You sure you weren\'t able to play without those sound files?
Anyway, here you\'ve the weather:

ok, that got the updater going for quite some while....
i now stops at art/effects/examples/spire_example.jpg
which i also assume i do not need, but since the updater wont pass...

had a look at the updater log it seems to be barfing
at random stuff in the \"create ...\" lines:

art/effects
art/music
data/config
data/shader
data/effects/...

pfcharacterdata.csplugin
PlaneShift.url
pssound.csplugin

some of the those files seems to be present at: http://www.psmirror.org/psupdater/  though

erhm, *sligtly sillly look* since it is a fresh install i assumed  i have to run the updater...
anyway tried it, but there is a fair amount of error messages and the only server available is localhost :)
also tried the pssetup but it complains about missing files, and the gui so garbled when it finally loads, that it is impossible to use

*sigh*

Seems that all mirrors are down, indeed, except the third.
*shrugs*

Hope all of this will lead to a working game :P

yes i have gone to the step of excluding the others as they just hang the updater indefinitly...

Me to :), at the least we will get a list of all the files missing, so that the server might at some point be updated....

it seems i must impose on you again.. could you upload the examples dir ? since that one seems empty on the third server as well...

Post by: Nilrem on February 11, 2006, 04:13:50 pm

I wonder how the mirror3 doesn\'t have those files...
In any case:
http://rapidshare.de/files/13030077/examples.zip.html

I do hope this thread ends sometime soon, this is becoming crazy.
