server wont start, missing a sprite file ????

Post by erik2k3 » Sat Aug 26, 2006 6:12 pm

Hi, I`m having a really weird problem :

I was setting up a new CS1.6 Server with wc3, doing so, i copied the "addon" folder from our existing server to my hdd, then, after installing stem on the root, simply transfering it back up again... of course having adjusted all the modules to amd64 instead of the windows dll`s. but the server wont come up ???? it keeps on spitting out this error msg :

FATAL ERROR (shutting down): Mod_NumForName: sprites/warcraft3/races/wc3_none_01.spr not found


what in gods name does this mean ? of course, there`s a sprite missing... but in the old server its missing as wel, and tht one is stil running ???

The server is running on sarge3.1,amd64lamp ... newest amxmodx and metamod also running without probs, jst wc3 wont ?

who can help me out ?

I think you should download 2.3.2 from here: http://war3ft.com/downloads.php and then copy the sprite folder on the server side. Why does it matter that it ran without the sprites on the old server. If the new server wants the sprites put them on there. I do not see what is troubling you.

Well, downloaded the 2.3.2, added the sprite file, then uploaded everything onto the server again... stil not workin... thts why it troubles me, cant see any logic explanation y it shouldnt run ???? the file wc3 is complaining about definately is there... but it cant see it or open ( chmod on 770 ) or whatever...

so yes, it is troubling me ;)
