Hi SA-MP people.
I've recently been trying to get a server up and running using Ubuntu as a platform. I've downloaded 32bit libraries to support it's execution, and have pulled the latest Linux server files down from the SA-MP site.
At the moment I only have the windows files on my desktop which I use for development. It includes all of the plugins. What I'm now trying to do is move the game-mode and the corresponding files onto the server and run it on a Linux platform.
When ran on the local Windows box I can see the IRC bots joining into the IRC network, and the server process stays running without issue. However, although I've put the equivalent .so plugins into the plugins folder and altered the server.cfg, the server just doesn't want to run correctly. I've started the server in the background, it prints out that the server has started with 100 players port 7777, but then when I monitor the IRC network the bots don't seem to join. All the correct executables for Linux are present.
Now the IRC network is hosted remotely from the server and my own host, therefore the details for the network in the script are static. Database is localhost, and located on the server, so that shouldn't cause any issues. I'm unsure where my problem lies - and without a GUI I can't see an easy way of diagnosing it like you would be able to with the server cmd window in any Windows OS.
Anyone care to shed some light? All plugins are the latest versions and it's being ran on Ubuntu 12.04 x64. Anything else Linux specific that I may be missing?
