hey,

is it possible to put power of changing greetings in echelon?

and which right levels excist there?

[xlr8or]

As a superadmin you can do that already in game using the !runas command.

Do a !help runas for more information.

[Witch]

ye i know that.

But when you look better all commands from echelon you can use as super admin !alias,!id,!permban,!putgroup

it will be cool if its include greeting changing

The ability to change a user's greeting in Echelon is in the next version, Echelon v2!

Eire.32

[Witch]

when it will be out?

Hi xlr8or, awesome mod for B3   This mod has been great for us, really easy to admin now when we don't have to hop in-game to unban someone .

I recently moved my site to a new webhost, and Echelon has not worked since.  I have modified the inc_config.php file to have the new MySQL database information for the Echelon database.

After logging into my Echelon site, I am getting this error:

Code:

Warning: mysql_pconnect() [function.mysql-pconnect]: Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 111 in /hermes/web08/b1212/moo.thadpgcom/echelon/Connections/b3connect.php on line 37

Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 111

I've checked and double checked everything, but can't find a solution.  The only difference between how this new webhost is setup and the old one, is that the MySQL server is hosted on a different server, instead of localhost.

Any help would be appreciated so I can get this up and running for us

Thanks,

Bojangles

I assume the database is at the same server as the echelon install, so PHP tries to connect to MySQL through 'localhost'.

See this topic on the mySQL forums: http://forums.mysql.com/read.php?52,151255,159894#msg-159894

It says to use in inc_config.php:

Code: php

## settings for the echelon database
$hostname_wwwvalidate = "localhost";

Instead of the IP address 127.0.0.1

That also goes for the

Code: php

"hostname" => "localhost",

for each server...

Give it a shot

Thanks for the reply xlr8or.

I tried your suggestion, but I got a MySQL unable to connect to database error.

Here's my setup:

B3 and the Echelon DB is hosted on our dedicated server that also hosts our game servers.

Our website, and Web Echelon are hosted on our web host.

Here's a copy of my inc_config.php file (the settings are all the same from when I had them on our old webhost, where everything worked):

Code: php

date_default_timezone_set('America/Chicago'); // see all available timezones at http://www.php.net/manual/en/timezones.php  
$path = "/echelon/";
$hide_admin_level = "128"; // 1, 2, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128 -> Hides clientdetails 

## settings for the echelon database
$hostname_wwwvalidate = "thadpgcom.fatcowmysql.com";
$database_wwwvalidate = "thadpg2_echelon";
$username_wwwvalidate = "*********";
$password_wwwvalidate = "*********";

## settings for your b3 databases
$config = array(
  "clanname" => "Dogg Pound Gangstas",

I can PM you the asterisked out fields if you want to test connecting to the B3 and Echelon DB that is hosted on our dedicated server.

Any more advice you can offer would be greatly appreciated

[xlr8or]

Well, the mySQL server has to allow remote connections, default that is not allowed.

Check http://wiki.bigbrotherbot.net/doku.php/installation:installing_mysql in our wiki and see if that's your error.

I went ahead and put Echelon and the login DB on our dedicated server that has B3 on it.  Took a little bit to setup PHP to work with IIS, but got it working.. and it is faster than ever, since the databases are local now

Thanks for your help!
