Can't Get WebAdmin Working

[DvTJonahHex]

I just got my server from GameServers.com. I updated it Patch 1.2 and installed WebAdmin-2008-02-24. In UTWeb.ini I also set
[UWeb.WebServer]
bEnabled=true

The server log file does not have a "ScriptLog" entry anywhere in it, thus I have no way of finding the webadmin port number -- I assume the webadmin IP address is the same as the server IP. I have tried the old standby port numbers, 8008, 8080 and 8888, but none of these work.

It is worth mentioning that the log file seems to be truncated at 8192 bytes. The last few lines of it look like this:

Log: GConfig::LoadFile has loaded file: ..\UTGame\Config\UTWeb.ini
Log: GConfig::Find has loaded file: ..\UTGame\Config\UTUIDataStore_Registry_0.ini
Log: GConfig::Find has loaded file: ..\UTGame\Config\UTColorControl.ini
Log: Performing DNS lookup for stunserver.org
Log: Browse: WAR-Torlan?Name=Player?team=255?game=UTGameContent.UTO nslaughtGame_Content?GameMode=4?maxplayers=12?NumP ublicConnections=0?GamePassword=********?AdminPass word=********?Mutator=ColorControl.UTMutator_Color Control?numplay=8
Log: LoadMap: WAR-Torlan?Name=Player?tea

Any help getting WebAdmin going would be appreciated. TIA.

I followed these instructions...



3. Start your server. This will create a new file in your
/UTGame/Config/ folder: - UTWeb.ini

******
3a. Do not start your Server with -configsubdir= , it will not create the UTWeb.ini
******

7. Save this file, restart your UT3 server. This will create a new
file in your /UTGame/Config/ folder: - UTWebAdmin.ini

******
7a. Do not start your Server with -configsubdir= , it will not create the UTWebAdmin.ini
******

14. If you want to get the WebAdmin working in -configsubdir= , copy the 2 Files in each folder of your "configsubdirs"

15. Make sure to set the WebAdminPorts different!

You have to use port 9000 through 9050. That's how GameServers.com has set it up.

Piglet, thank you.

I still cannot get into WebAdmin - after taking "forever" to connect, I get "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage." It does not bring up the login window for the username and password.

I'm thinking maybe GameServers has port 8008 (what I changed ListenPort to in your step 6) blocked. I will contact their tech support and ask about this.

In the meantime, if anyone has any other ideas or suggestions, I will appreciate it.(

Thanks, Al. You posted that while I was replying to Piglet. You also saved me a tech support call...

I'm in.

No problem
