Unreal crashed and now wont start..

Post by Sneo »

Hi,
So basically what happened, I rehashed the server, the config file didnt load properly because there was an error in it, i fixed the error rehashed again, it loaded successfully, about 10-15seconds later the server just went down..

Now i get this message:
* Connecting to irc.seanmcn.com (6667)
*Local host: 213-94-235-9.b-ras1.chf.cork.eircom.net (213.94.235.9)
* Unable to connect to server (Connection refused)
* Connect cancelled
I have restarted my router, deleted the open ports, set up the open ports again, turned off all firewalls, turned them back on, restarted the pc, just left the pc, updated the ip, restarted the service, went to backup of last working config file, reinstalled, reinstalled on different partition, none of it works...

I have set it up on my machine so it is running locally, i can also not get onto the server by going /server localhost so It cant be ports in my opinion.

I also installed Unreal as a service and dont know how to uninstall the service as when I uninstall Unreal the service stays there.

Im running Windows XP

Anyway if anyone could help me with this that would be great.

My service log
That is the only log in \Unreal3.2

If you need to look at any other files just post what you need here and ill get them..

And thanks in advance for anyone that helps.. :oops:


Another note:
There is a wircd.exe in proccess's

What about the listen blocks in your unrealircd.conf? What are they?

Problem fixed :) Sneo came into the help channel on a network he uses, Jaundies, and gave the link to his post.

For anyone else having a problem like this - double check your listen blocks. This was the problem here. He was trying to connect on 6667 when his config file allowed connections ONLY on 6697.

Found the problem.

listen *:6697 {
options
{
clientsonly;
};
};

Either you need to use port 6697 or change 6697 to 6667.
