OpenSim does not actually function properly without an asset cache. It will appear to function, the simulator will run and many things will work, but you will run into subtle bugs that are difficult to track down such as avatar bakes being deleted on upload. In my opinion OpenSim should fail to start without a cache configured, but for now just make sure you always have one enabled.

This means one extra step to get a very basic system up and running... by also copying CenomeCache.ini.example to CenomeCache.ini. It is possible to have no cache mechanism chosen and this would save that extra step on an initial setup. Can I suggest that the 2 lines in the [Modules] section are commented out by default, leaving no cache mechanism as the initial choice. A user would then sensibly choose the cache they wish to use as an extra and thus be aware they need to also copy the relevant example file in config-include. I.e. as follows... [Modules] ;; Choose 0 or 1 cache modules, and the corresponding config file, if it exists. ;; Copy the config .example file into your own .ini file and change configs there ;AssetCaching = "GlynnTuckerAssetCache" ;AssetCaching = "FlotsamAssetCache" ;Include-FlotsamCache = "config-include/FlotsamCache.ini" ; AssetCaching = "CenomeMemoryAssetCache" ; Include-CenomeCache = "config-include/CenomeCache.ini" ;; Enable this to use Freeswitch on a standalone ;FreeswitchServiceInConnector = True _______________________________________________ Opensim-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/opensim-dev _______________________________________________ Opensim-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/opensim-dev
