TIME FOR A...

Reggie,

The RV chat I listed there is the old meepchat we used several years ago. I don't think it's something we'd want to use right now. If I recall correctly, we stopped using it because of a "memory leak" or something.

The OS on the VPS I'm testing is CentOS, a verson of Linux tailored for servers (I'm sure you know that, just clarifying for the commoners!)

Yup, pretty sure it's written in C++. Quite a few of the files are saved as .cpp, so yeah.

This is something that we should discuss in chat or skype or something. It'll take way too long if we just go back-and-forth with posts or PMs. Let's schedule a time to discuss it in chat, or you can PM me your Skype name or your cell #. I'm pretty confident that we can get this done in a matters of hours if we're discussing it in person.

Fairly certain that was the Virtualisation i tested it (with fake users posting random strings though) and it didnt seem to happen. Java doesnt play nice with some VM's

Found the source

https://github.com/vyhd/rvserver

INSTALL says

Code: Select all

autoheader
aclocal
autoconf
automake
./configure
make

Run that

Downloaded that from github, Been difficult trying to compile ...

fixing 8 errors so far, Pretty sure there is only 1 left but i cant get it

Edit

Got another 3, Now fully compiled. It doesnt seem to like to start though i get this back

Code: Select all

exussum@exussumuk:~/rvchat/vyhd-rvserver-eaa7585/src$ ./rvserver                ERROR: required config option "Daemonize" not found

hmm may be due to the compiler errors, Most were fixed by including cstring

The files on Github may be a a little bit outdated. They're 2+ years old, but Thyker and Glodenox were making modifications to the chat up until mid last year, if I recall.

We'll compare stuff tomorrow. I'm guessing that most of the differences will be feature-related (like Bell, user colors, themes, and some moderator commands), nothing too fundamental.

if you have all the up to date cpp files and h files then compiling will be easy - i have just got mine working, Its a mox between C and C++, i thought it was all C++
