Transferred Q3 to another box, server now stalls on startup

Post by schwim »

Hi there guys,

I'm having a problem with a Q3 install that I moved from my old server box to a new one. I've updated the server paths for the .bat and .config files, but I've obviously missed something. The server starts up and it loads the maps and bots and just stops. No error shows, it just stops there.

Two questions, if I could:

1) Where might I find an error log if it's OSP running on the server, root or /osp?

2) Where else might I look besides the startup bat and config file for changing paths on a transferred install of Q3?

Thanks a bunch for any help you can provide,

Hi there Amidy and thanks very much for the reply. I forgot that the server doesn't send reply notifications, and was sitting on my thumbs wondering why nobody replied :)

While waiting for a reply that was already there, I went ahead and did a fresh install of Q3 and OSP and half-assedly made my problem a non-issue. I figured it needed to be done anyways since the install was a Frankenstein spanning many years of hacked config and batch files.

Very sorry for the false alarm, but appreciate the response.

thanks,
