yes, i'm still using the 1.2 branch, i'm just using the latest code in that branch instead of the revision suggested for the gutsy howto.

good to hear that it shouldn't cause any major problems. thanks for your help.

Linux Specific Issues / building planeshift on ubuntu 8.04 beta
« on: April 09, 2008, 07:47:43 am »
hi,

i'm using the ubuntu 8.04 beta and i've been trying to build it using induane's build guide for 7.10, to see what the differences are.

there was a problem with crystal space. when i ran the config script it generated the -Wno-long-double option in the Jamconfig. 8.04 doesn't recognize this and it causes the build to crash. it can be edited from Jamconfig, but this isn't a very tidy solution. i mentioned this on the crystalspace mailing list and they told me that it had been fixed in the lastest svn code and was due to be applied to the 1.2 branch (that planeshift uses). this has now been done. i updated crystalspace and cel to the latest 1.2 branch code and ran the configure scripts, there is now no mention of -Wno-long-double. so they should compile happily. i'm now going to rebuild everything and see how the resulting planeshift build works.

i understand that this newer code may cause incompatibility issues with the planeshift server, is there some way i can look out for these? i'm guessing i could run planeshift from the command line and look through the output for error message, but is there a better way?

thanks.

neko - i've taken another look at the forum guidelines and it does say that posters should not "Make multiple posts on the same subject for the purpose of getting attention paid to your issue", which wasn't what i was doing. i tried fixing the problem in a different way and when that didn't work i reported back on it's results to help clarify the problem. i wasn't bumping the thread either. not exactly sure what rule i broke here, care to elaborate?

caarie - thanks. i'll try that.

well, i changed the run speed, but that wouldn't explain why mysql couldn't find the file would it?

*edit*



i've just removed the modified file and restored the original and it's still not working.

me@desktop:~/software/planeshift/planeshift_svn/src/server/database/mysql$ ls movement*
movement.sql

the file is definitely there. no idea why mysql is saying it can't find it.

*edit*

why did you edit my post neko?

i run a planeshift server on my own machine for personal use. i built it using Induane's howto.

it works fine but now i want to alter some of the settings. i've gone into /src/server/database/mysql and edited the relevant file. now i need to update the database. here's what i did...
