CoD WaW server problem

[markop10]

I have full version of CoD waw ... But i cant create server manualy like Beta server. Message: The game can not be run over a remote desktop connection. What is a problem? I put same command line... Please somebody

[VicToMeyeZR]

lol... Sounds like your not doing it right. The game is trying to run on your local computer via your remote connection to the server. Can't do that.. Best bet to test is create a batch file with the command line it, and run that. Couldn't really tell you though, because I haven't seen a full version yet..

[wondorae]

yeah i aint seen a full version aroun yet either.. alothough play.com who i ordered my copys from say in stock dispatched within 24hrs so im waiting for mine

You need to be logged in to Console mode session 0 for COD WAW server to work. Just signing into remote desktop it will not work.

[Drakar]

In console mode session 0 tested here and the same error and with tcadmin impossible to launch.

[ECF]

Your are not launching the game with a commandline then. The +set_dedicated 2 command starts the server in dedicated mode rather than starting the actual game itself. There is a full config for WAW in the config forums, simply import it and change the executable name from demo to whatever they named the full version exe.

[Drakar]

I did it. I importing your config. Have you tested it?

 

With the demo haven't problems.

Uhhh The master servers are not up yet so it won't go to lobby.

 

This guy over here even posted he can't get to lobby only LAN and SP.

Probably won't be until 11/11/08 the official release date.

You need to be logged in to Console mode session 0

How can i login in this session 0?

[Drakar]

You have to execute:

 

mstsc.exe /admin

 

or

 

mstsc.exe /console

 

By example /admin is for vista cliente, console for xp and so on.

i'm using the tcadmin game config posted , i have changed the executable to codwawmp.exe , the service starts but in taskmanager i see that it use only 10 -20 mbyte of ram and i cant query the server.

 

i have try on my local pc , if i start the server with usual command line it's generate a uhandle exeption error , if i set the (+sets dedicated 2 ) adding a S in the +set the game start with a black screen and after return in console mode and server starts.

 

the correct dx9dll is present in the game folder.

 

try with mstsc /admin logon but don't start on remote with a simple .bat

 

any suggestion to make it work?

i have this problem in local and i suppose to have the same problem on my remote tcadmin server

[xpservers]

its a bug,, everyone is having this issue. Only servers in lobby right now are being run by gui.

 

they say Treyarch will be releasing a patch to fix the remote desktop check when launching server via .bat script or whatever.

 

If you lauch CODWaWmp.exe on ure local pc you will notice the game is calling for the complete startup routine instead of just the dedicated server. It starts to load the splash screen then quickly closes into console giving the error. Definately a bug with the mp.exe.

[D3vil]

same problem if start as service with tcadmin then or only a problem with .bats and remote desktop?

[Redeye]

yeah now it runs on the desktop in the console, but getting it running through tcadmin is proving a problem for me

That is correct. If i use a bat file and run it manulay from the box, ie, rdp, ie if I double click the .bat file it works. But using TCAdmin to run it is a no go. Server gets to about 10 or 11 meg ram usage then stops. Server will not run from TCAdmin.

[Guest matthewfever]

im going to be trying all morning, but every setting seems fine, but it just wont go up

[xpservers]

Sounds like the same issue im having with my FC2 server,, wont run in service mode

[Wizard220]

If I double click the bat file the console window stays on the desktop, ie it will run. If the CoDWaWmp.exe is run as a service, ie, TCAdmin it will not run. Again it gets to about 10 or 11 meg then stops.

 

If I use TCAdmin to run the bat file still no go, will not boot the srerver. Same issue running as a service.

[Guest matthewfever]
