| Use the startup script from the src/ directory. Here's what I type:
nohup ./startup 5432 > nohup.out 2>&1 &
Replace 5432 with whatever port you're running on. |

| Could you post your startup script?
I think it's trying to run... look at:
ty39etc 7906 1.5 0.1 2928 1232 pts/4 SN 14:39 0:00 /bin/csh -f ./sta
Maybe your game is failing to start. Can you start it without the startup script?
Try just:
./smaug 3160
(or whatever your executable is called) |

| no, it won't start. how do i check out my startup script.
i know i should get more knowledge on this, but i figured the way to learn was to jump in and give it a try. only way to learn is through experience. | | Top |

| here's what i received from one of ther hosts:
Quote:
You'll need to kill the smaugfuss process to free up the port.
ps ux will show you the processes running under your account
kill -9 PID# you'll need to kill both the startup process and the smaug process
Compile your code, set the port # and then start it up. If it is 'sleeping', kill it and check the logfiles.
i killed the process and sleeping, then tried to start up mine and it didn't work.

| i found out that the startup was trying to read smaug instead of smaug.exe which my makefile was still making. so i changed it and it's all good now. thanks for the help K
