Portable Servers

[biosboy4]

Hello,

 

We were porting a server from a windows box we have been developing on, to a linux box that we are using to host our staging server.

 

I am pretty sure this may have been an issue with mono, I am just posting here for some verification:

 

Copying the server by it's root directory should successfully migrate the server, correct?

 

Thanks guys,

PS: I'm also backing up our "staging" directory hourly with an rsync script, so I'm just trying to verify that portable functionality is there. There might be M$ registry stuff that could be a show stopper when it comes to windows/linux migration.

We got it figured out. For some reason mono was running the first server that was ever run no matter which one was executed thereafter.

apt-get purge mono-complete 
apt-get autoremove 
apt-get install mono-complete

Did not resolve the issue, the first server would still run no matter what.

So the temporary workaround for us was to just spin up a fresh debian vm.

Good to go!

 

Edit: We also noticed that the cli commands don't seem to work when running the server via mono/terminal. Is there an argument I am missing? I have been running it like so:

cd /home/user/server_dir
mono "Intersect Server.exe"

The server is completley contained in its own folder. No registry edits or anything you should be good to migrate right over and run the server via Mono.

 

Best of luck!
