I wanted to know before I continue to pull my on hair out, if a

now. I am sorry if I seem dumb, but I think I am missing something. I

no intentions of connecting to it. My personal project lets personal
friends of mine come and enjoy a tour of Shuri Castle during the time of
King Sho nei.
Yes, groups do work with a standalone. Just yesterday, I have set up
the flotsam XmlRpcGroups implementation for my standalone which also
uses a OpenSim 0.6.9 binary distribution provided by OSGrid.
Ok, I don't seem to have any other troubles, my friends log in fine and
so do I. I don't loose anything but between shutting down and coming
back up some worn items have to be reattached. I logged into flotsom
and downloaded what I thought I needed from them the php files and all
that. But once I get how I think they tell me to set it up done, I turn
on the group in the opensim.ini and all I get are errors, and even after
pointing to my own xmlrpc.php in my xampp/htdocs/groups dir via http
address one of the errors I get say it is trying to use something to do
with OSGrid. Oh and quits while apparently trying to find the user in
the user database.
Have you followed the installation instructions at
http://code.google.com/p/flotsam/wiki/XmlRpcGroups? You do not need to
care about the OpenSim module because it is already part of the
OpenSim distribution.
So it started making me think before I continue maybe I misunderstood
with all these people running with many configurations, should I be
running in Gridmode, not connected to OSGrid but should I need to run my
opensim in grid mode using all those external files to run the user
server so it will find the users. Or did I do something else wrong.
But if someone could just help me configure groups in a more detailed
way for a standalone that would be nice too.
Follow the link given in step 1) of the installation instructions and
use the "Download Source" button in the upper right of that page to
download a ZIP archive with everything you need (and some more).
Inside this ZIP archive, you'll find a subdirectory
"XmlRpcGroupsServer". The contents of that directory are what you
actually need to copy to your xampp/htdocs/groups directory. Your
Apache web server must be able to run PHP scripts in this directory
(since you are using XAMPP, I take it that this is already the case).
Step 2) tells you to copy config.php.example to config.php and to edit
it appropriately. Make sure that you provide the correct settings for
the database (see next step). You can keep the default values for the
"Group security" settings. (Once you have groups successfully running,
you may want to change both $groupRequireAgentAuthForWrite and
$groupEnforceGroupPerms to TRUE; they work fine in my setup.)
Step 3) requires you to add some tables to the MySQL database. You can
add these tables to the same database that you are using for your
standalone, or use a separate one. I added the tables to my existing
standalone database with this command:
mysql -u root -p standalone < groups.sql
"standalone" is the name of my database, and groups.sql is a file in
the directory that you copied in step 1). You will be asked for the
database server's root password.
Now, in step 4), you can enable the settings in the [Groups] section
in OpenSim.ini. Make sure that the GroupsServerURI is correct and that
the other settings correspond to those you made in step 2. For
example, the ReadKey and WriteKey must match in both OpenSim.ini and
config.php.
Don't forget to restart your standalone after making these adjustments.
Please let us know if you still have problems with the setup.
I use windows 7 64bit using 32bitlaunch. Running on 8 gig of ram and
1720 gig drive space. Quad core.
I use MySql data base. DSL 5.5 kbps and use DynDNS providing my
personal web address.
MY web page runs fine from my machine. I used XAMPP to install apache,
mysql I downloaded and installed separately first.
I am not a networking expert and might have gone wrong from the start.
I had to change the port in which opensim runs. because windows 7 was
using 9000 for its own use, I tell opensim to use port 9030 and could on
from there for regions. Not sure if that was the way to go. Could I
have done that another way? I do use a router. The D-Link 4500 with
Game fuel turned off.
Any help appreciated, thanks.
OK, I haven't tried it yet, I only just woke up. But I didn't want to
wait to thank you, that was the most comprehensive discription I have
seen yet. I will let you know how it all goes. And it sounds like this
should help. The first time I tried to get each file off of flotsom's
site individually. I never noticed the zip file. I am a legally blind,
only one useful eye and one that gets fuzzy after to much use. That
alonge with a kidney transplant. I don't know if that zip was there
before or I might have missed it. But this sounds like it will help
me. Thanks again.
I really apprecaite your time.
