Hi, I have a problem, that I cannot find a solution to anywhere.

I have a dedicated server and run b3 on that perfectly.  So I know more or less the setup of the bot.

However, I decided to start doing testing on my personal computer.  I have an almost duplicate setup to that of my dedi's bot... however my server doesnt seem to be writing a Games_mp.log

Even if I try to create a plank (.txt) file and name it Games_mp.log
My server does not write to the log file... obviously resulting in a complete fail of the bot.


Since there are alot of clued up people around here I have decided to give these forums a try.  After countless hours of looking elsewhere... this seemed a sensible option.

I know its not really what you guys are for, helping with game server operation... but it seems such a simple thing, which i dont understand how it could be going wrong.


Side Notes:

The server.cfg files are exactly the same on both my personal server and my dedi box servers.
On my personal, there is NO mods running.


Thanks in advance.

Which OS?

[moosedrool]

In my server.cfg file I have this set.

Code:

//console log - 0=no log 1=buffered 2=continuous 3=append
set g_logsync "2"
set g_log "games_mp.log"

Which OS?

Well the laptop which I do the server and bot stuff on runs Windows 7 64-bit
Dedi Server Runs Windows 2003 Server

In my server.cfg file I have this set.

Code:

//console log - 0=no log 1=buffered 2=continuous 3=append
set g_logsync "2"
set g_log "games_mp.log"

Unfortunately I had no success with this either.  Thanks anyway though!

Nevermind, I got it working 

Turns out the games_mp.log was being written, but to a completely different and pointless location on the drive.
Everything is running smooth now



To anybody else, who might happen to have a similar problem with the Games_mp.log file "apparently" not being written, or even created.  Do a search on your drive, and chances are, you will find it elsewhere, and being written to.
You shouldn't move it unless you know what you're doing (not that I do) because if thinking correctly, it will just create a new one in the original folder you found it in and not make a blind bit of difference.  But even at that, I still wouldn't move it... if its working fine... DON'T touch it lol!

Can be locked, or closed or whatever now.
