UT3+TCADMIN+X64 Problem

[t1mk1ll]

We have a client that tried to install a UT3 server onto his box and it wasn't showing up in game. I have one running on a box with Server 2003 32 bit and it has no problems. The server on the x64 box does not run through TCADMIN but if I create a bat file from the shortcut produced by TCADMIN and run it from the desktop the server runs fine and shows up in game. I have recreated this with several installs on the server. It simply won't run properly using TCADMIN to execute ut3.exe. BTW the process does show as running in the task manager but is not viewable in the in game browser and cannot be connected to.

Try setting the windows service for the game to run as administrator. Start the game and see if it starts. Then revert it back to the system account and start it again and see if that works.

Nope. The problem isn't the server starting. The process shows as running in the task manager. But it doesn't properly start the server. It does not show up in the in game browser either, but when I go back it still shows as running in the task manager. I can run it from a bat file using the same command line TCAdmin generates in the control panel and it works fine. There is something wrong with the way TCAdmin is executing the file.

It simply executes it with whatever commands you give it.

 

Try using the following troubleshooter to see why the server is not starting.

Did you enter a login name and password in the command line?

Forgot to mention you need C++ runtime on the server to run properly. Not sure if you did that also.

you guys are missing what I'm saying...

 

It works. Just not when launched through TCAdmin. It does work on 32 bit through TCAdmin, but on x64 when you launch it the game doesn't show up in the browser. When I launch via .bat file it works 100% fine on x64. The problem seems to be coming from the TCAdmin software.

Open a support ticket with TCAdmin. Give your tcadmin login and remote desktop information in the ticket and I will take a look.

I had this problem with 2 differnet COD4 servers. Somehow the command line arguements being passed had %slots% and so forth and not the actual values it should have had. Changing the command line via command line changer, and then back again fixed the issue.

 

Dunno if that's what is going on with your system though.
