Making a dedicated server. 1 Year, 2 Months ago Karma: 0
Im trying to find some information about installing a dedicated server for PokerTH. I have read in the forum but dont really understad where to start and what i need to do.

Can someone point me in the right direction here.

It would be nice with a step by step guide, if something like that exists.


OS INFO:
Linux version 2.6.26-2-686 (Debian 2.6.26-15) (dannf@debian.org) (gcc version 4.1.3 20080704 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.2-25))

Best regards Shady.

Check with
apt-cache search pokerth
whether this package
http://packages.debian.org/sid/pokerth-server
is available to you.
If this is the case, it may be as simple as executing
aptitude install pokerth-server
or
apt-get install pokerth-server
from a terminal.

After that, you can execute
pokerth_server
(or pokerth-server, I'm not sure if the debian pkg renamed the binary)

To test if your server is running, start the pokerth client, go to Settings -> Configure PokerTH... -> Internet Game,
check the box Manual Server Configuration, make the Server address
localhost
Port = 7234
Then click OK, and in the start window try
Internet Game
If you end up in an empty lobby, you have connected to your own server.

Depending on how the permissions are setup on your machine, you might be able to compile it yourself and run it from your homedir.

In its simplest form (also check Wiki on left pane of the pokerth website if qt4 is not default on the system)

cd ~/
mkdir pokerth07compile
cd pokerth07compile
svn co -r1933 http://pokerth.svn.sourceforge.net/svnro...okerth/trunk/pokerth
cd pokerth
qmake
make
bin/pokerth_server

Re:Making a dedicated server. 1 Month ago Karma: 0
Hello,

I have followed your install directions and am getting these errors on a Debian Lenny server:

Code:


make[1]: *** [obj/crypthelper.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/pokerth08compile/pokerth'
make: *** [sub-pokerth_lib-pro-make_default-ordered] Error 2
rt:~/pokerth08compile/pokerth# bin/pokerth_server
-bash: bin/pokerth_server: No such file or directory
rt:~/pokerth08compile/pokerth#



I get these errors when trying to compile from the packages including the latest beta. When I install the default packages it works perfectly (version 0.62) Any hints would be great as I would like to use the latest version.

UPDATE:
I have since tried to install the latest version via the link on this site: apt-get -t install experimental pokerth and get these errors, which proibably explains why all my previous installs have failed:

Code:


The following packages have unmet dependencies.
  pokerth: Depends: libboost-filesystem1.42.0 (>= 1.42.0-1) but it is not installable

           Depends: libqtgui4 (>= 4:4.5.3) but 4.4.3-1+lenny1 is to be installed
E: Broken packages
