Hi all,
I have a problema when I try to starting up the pol server.
The error is:
Error reading configuration file pkg/items/weapons/config/itemdesc.cfg:
Weapon has INTRINSIC property, which is no longer needed
Element: Weapon 0xF020, found on line 24
Server Shutdown: load_itemdesc
Execution aborted due to: Configuration file error
I have checked itemdesc.src, and SaveOnExit is setted to 0
Code: Select all
Weapon 0xF020

//MainStuff

Delete this line:
As the warning says, it's no longer needed.

I use custom distro and client 4.0.
However, I have resolved using the pol server configured in my server.
I had this error because try to install and configure new installation POL for some test migrate server.
The POL server linux is stabale? Which OS is better, Ubuntu/Debian or Centos?
Thanks!

Official linux POLCore is stable, unofficial from git, we do not know so for safety we treat it as unstable.
Personally, I use Centos.
You can test latest POLCore with latest Distro at
http://polserver.hell-yeah.pl/. Log in with given client or downlaod both POLCore and Distro and try it for yourself.

Good news Aderal, thanks.
Maybe, when my server is online for everyone think to migrate in linux server.
I prefer debian, but if is stable with centos... also good. The important is that POL is stable

As far as I know, the POL version on git has no critical bugs (that is, no data loss bugs or crashes which make the game unusable). There may be some deadlocks on linux when using single-threaded-login, though.

We're running lastest POL099 on Debian and it is very stable there too.

I belive it's a wrong topic, but still close enough.
I've found a bug in windows x64 compilation of the latest git hub version. If debug server port or any Aux service port is occupied (by another pol sever), pol.exe just stops working.
Can someone also test and confim it?

Can anyone recommend me stable version of pol core for windows x64? Preferably the most recent one.
Or should I continue fiddling with latest github polcore?

Can you explain the "single-threaded-login" mean? Is there any setting for this not occur?
Thanks.

In pol.cfg:
Code: Select all
UseSingleThreadLogin=(1/0 {default 0})

Code: Select all
11-10-2012 Turley:
Added: uoclient.cfg Listener property "KeepClients" 1/0 default 0
if set to 1 clients keep this listener port even after different gameserver select
Note: actually 1 is the old behaviour and 0 the old behaviour of pol.cfg ListenPort
Added: pol.cfg "UseSingleThreadLogin" 1/0 default 0
if set all prelogin clients are handled inside the listener thread and not inside an extra thread
this will reduce the amount of thread creates and destroys
Thank you, bodom!
