More than 1 teamspeak

[spongeh]

We once upon a time came across a problem with Teamspeak Servers running on Linux. Once you reached 60 virtual servers on a single TS process all sorts of strange things would happen to your user database.

 

 

 

To get round this we would only run 60 TS servers per TS process and increment the management ports so they would all still run on the same IP.

 

 

 

I have added my first TS server and imported all the servers and users to TCAdmin fine and the integration is great, but when I come to add another TS instance it won’t let me as it says I already have one on that IP even though I have incremented the management port.

 

 

 

Help.

Helo,

 

my problem is that I already had a teamspeak server and tried to add that to the panel so I can access it thou there and it wont let me. Do I have to get rid of that one and install one from tcadmin.

Try Importing the server and not create a new server.

Use a seperate IP address for a secondary TS server instance.

 

 

 

 

 

WTFolfe, to add a TS server goto System Settings > Voice Server Settings and add a new server.

 

 

 

If you are having issues, put in a ticket and we can help you.

 

 

 

*Note - don't confuse the Admin Port with server port. The admin port is used to communicate with the TS servers internal TCP/IP functions. Basically, leave it as the default the panel shows it as.

if i change the IP i have to let all the clients know about the change, which is something i dont want to do after past experiances of changing TS ip's

That's what the "News" feature is for

 

 

 

On a serious note, I suppose I can ask LFA to remove the validatiion behind that. But personally I think bad things will happen if you have 2 servers running on the same IP.

 

 

 

I hope I am wrong...

we already have 2 servers on the same IP and have had for over a year now. Aslong as the ports are different its not an issue its just like running game servers on different ports.

 

 

 

Aslong as there are validation checks that the 2nd server doesnt share any ports with the primary it should be fine.

Ok I turned off the other server and tried to create a teamspeak server and when I do and try to test, says could not connect. I tried defferent ips. Server ip, 127.0.0.1 and localhost and nothing. I am running windows 2003 32 bit. Any suggestions.

[WTWolfe]

ok I figured it out. I checked the server.ini file and the TCPQueryPort was set to a defferent port. I changed the port in TCAdmin and it works. Thanks for the support.

I am not saying what you are doing with the 2 servers is wrong by any means. We all do what works for us

 

 

 

I would be worried about setting up 2 servers, and having someone accidently start creating servers on the same ports as the first one on that same ip.

 

 

 

We actually had a client do this, and it's effects aren't really the best in the world.

 

 

 

I can speak to LFA about the validation behind the checking of the IPs and port numbers in TS.

[LFA]

You have 2 ways to work around this.

 

 

 

1. Type a different IP and save. Then modify the record and put the real IP. It will let you save because I am only validating the IP when you add new teamspeak servers not when modifying.

 

 

 

2. Use host names. For example:

 

ts1.yourdomain.com and ts2.yourdomain.com would both point to the same ip. That way it will let you save.

[spongeh]

Well that works great

 

 

 

Added the 2nd TS server using another IP and then changed it back and its all working fine, even the autocreate for a new user.
