ToriUpdate not working, allfiles.php broky
In 2.5 on Linux, ToriUpdate did not work, I never knew why.
In 2.6 on Linux, ToriUpdate still does not work, but now it writes a log file, autoupdate.log:
09-06-2007 21:23:42 Initializing ToriUpdate
09-06-2007 21:23:42 Fetching heads list
09-06-2007 21:23:47 Update terminated - 0 new files downloaded.
Indeed.
Since I had the file name to go, I used strace to figure out how the update was done.
It turns out that it retrieves the list of files to download from this URL:
http://toribash.com/forum/toribash/allfiles.php
which serves a page that (currently) reads:
custom/hampa/head.tga bff2617b31e9f43d66ea85aa16a6a2b8
And sure, since the hampa head is already there in ./custom, it has nothing to download. Some more investigation with strace turned out that if I remove ./custom/hampa, is it correctly downloaded, and that my own head is actually served on toribash.com:
http://toribash.com/cp/custom/ddaa/head.tga
So it looks like the head download problem on the server is still not fixed.
Please, can allfiles.php be fixed? I miss everybody's head.

Hmm, I think Stilf that we need to get the Linux version out a few weeks before anybody else, because that way we will get more indepth research about bugs and things not working properly!
don't unban, he has hard coded userid bypasses everywhere.

Bugger. Did I miss a forum post announcing the downtime?

Thanks. Think of clicking on the little "rep" button

A more Linux-friendly beta-test program would probably be a good thing, provided that there are online players to test the game with.
