Lane Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Hi Guys, I have read other posts here that others are able to run BF2CC on a Server 2008 machines without issue, however I cannot get it to work for the life of me. Current setup: TCAdmin fires up BF2CC which in turn starts the BF2 server. In this setup the CC starts up fine, however it is unable to fire up the BF2 server itself - I have confirmed even with it interacting with the desktop and running under system. I can start the BF2CC manually via the desktop and it works like a charm. I have also tried other user accounts and am unable to get it work when using it in combination with TCAdmin (well as a service in general). Anyone find a solution to this?

Feltz Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Lane, I could be wrong but I think you have to set the exe to BF2CC to run as administrator. We were having an issue like that but one of our techs got it resolved and I thought that was the resolution. However it was a manual resoultio that we would set one time per install.

Goran Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Yes you need to run it with system account, did you install all the needed dependencies mentioned on their site? In our case everything is working great, but we have "interact with desktop" checked. OS : Win 2008 x64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried, does not appear to make any difference if you tell it to use system, administrator or another user. Yes you need to run it with system account, did you install all the needed dependencies mentioned on their site? In our case everything is working great, but we have "interact with desktop" checked. OS : Win 2008 x64 Its not a dependency issue as it works just fine when not running as a service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Lane, Am i correct to say that the bf2ccd will fire up and get stuck on querying map name? if so try this Under services in the server manager for windows, edit the service for the game. Find the service Right click and enter the properties window Click on the log on tab Select use this account Enter a admin account Enter the password for that account Confirm the password Hit ok and try starting the server thru TCA the main problem for this is that the System account will not allow an .exe to start an .exe like it did in 2003 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
