| The file swr.exe is the result of the link. In other words, the whole point of compiling is to eventually get the swr.exe file, which you then execute to get SMAUG up. Thus, it won't be in the gzip file.
There is a minor bug in the make file (Makefile) which tries to chmod (change mode) the swr file, however under Cygwin the file is swr.exe (not swr) and thus that fails. However that is not a big deal, otherwise it is ready to run.
This is what I saw when I linked:
$ make
rm -f ../bin/swr
gcc -o ../bin/swr act_comm.o act_info.o act_move.o act_obj.o act_wiz.o boards.o
build.o clans.o comm.o const.o db.o fight.o handler.o hashstr.o id.o interp.o m
agic.o makeobjs.o misc.o mud_comm.o mud_prog.o player.o requests.o reset.o save.
o shops.o skills.o special.o tables.o track.o update.o space.o morespace.o swski
lls.o planets.o vote.o -lm # -lcrypt
chmod g+w ../bin/swr
chmod: ../bin/swr: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [../bin/swr] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/nick/swr-2.0/src'
make: *** [all] Error 2
$ ls ../bin
swr.exe
Note the swr.exe file in the bin directory.

| it doesn't seem to make that file at all.
i have something else messed up because i get this
as well as the missing swr.exe
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
the only bin directory i have is in the cygwin directories
and swr isn't in there after the make.

| The bin directory should be there anyway. How did you unzip the original archive? If you used WinZip then there is a problem that it doesn't automatically create empty directories, which bin would have been.
However using tar will work correctly.
eg.
tar xvzf swr-2.0a2.tar.gz
What I would do at this stage is just create (ie. mkdir) the empty bin directory, at the same level as the src directory, then try relinking.
ld is the GNU linker, by the way.

| Sorry to hear that, but I can't really help debug all of the SWR code.
I didn't write the original SMAUG, and also didn't write the SWR add-ons.
If you are reasonably familiar with C, you could try firing up the debugger and trying to work out where it is going wrong, but sometimes that can be quite time-consuming.
For me, I have to spend my time adding in all the enhancements to MUSHclient that people have been asking for. |

| Well I had the forementioned problem of swr being non-existent, but that was not much of a problem.
I compiled and ran the file, but during the boot process, it turns up an error on not being able to read in/find the area.lst file. (specifically, the program terminated when it says "Reading in area files...", then puts out the shutdown.txt stating the error i mentioned.
I've gone through db.c and mud.h, backtracking the problem, checking to make sure the program is reading into the proper directories. So far, no luck.
I am pretty much using stock SWR, and compiling under the latest version of Cygnus. | | Top |

| I usually execute the server from the area directory, and thus it can find the area.lst file - as it is not given a full pathname in the source.
Thus, I do something like this:
cd area
../bin/smaug.exe
(or maybe ../src/smaug.exe)
