Rethat 8.0 and CVS Seq 4 w/problems

[Booboo]

I seem to be geting the following....

Using config file '/usr/local/share/showeq/showeq.xml'
Loaded preferences file: /usr/local/share/showeq/seqdef.xml!
Unable to open file: /usr/local/share/showeq/showeq.xml!
Disabling decoder due to missing libEQ.a
***DECRYPTION DISABLED***

Decoder has been manually disabled by either -b, the BrokenDecode option,
or a missing libEQ.a library.

(There should be a more detailed message above)
Listening for first client seen.
Initializing Packet Capture Thread:
Filtering packets on device eth0, searching for EQ client...
Running without libEQ.a linked in.

Categories Reloaded
Error opening map file '/usr/local/share/showeq/unknown.map'!
Opcode Logging Mask: 0 0 0

After that nothing seems to come up, no seq window no nothing. It just sits there at "Opcode Logging Mask: 0 0 0" I have searched all the forums I have followed links to get a new CVS version, patch it with all the latest patches and I am still stuck. Can anyone please give a nudge in the right direction on this. I have been at this all day. I am runing Redhat 8.0 with the latest Seq 4

Thanks,

Booboo

That's the normal startup. The "DECRYPTION DISABLED" message is obsolete, but still in the code because you never know what SoE may change at a later date.

If you're just sitting there, you more than likely have a network issue. Such network issues are almost always due to having the EQ and Seq boxes plugged into a router/switch instead of a true hub. When 10 people ask this question, probably 8 of them are because of this.

Give us some information about your network for a possible better answer to your question. Also, take a gander at section 4.4 of the FAQ (http://www.macsrule.com/~seqfaq/seq-faq.html?s=&menu=9#4.4), which deals with this exact issue.

Well my network setup has not changed since the last time used SEQ. It lookes like this...

Modem (DSL)

Netgear DSL Router

HP hub (8port) ---

My PC Wifes PC SEQ PC


Its a very basic setup and worked with SEQ like about 6 months ago. I have since come back to EQ and wanted to try it again. When I run TCPDUMP I get these kinda of messges coming from the computer that I am running EQ on when its at the character selection screen. So clearly the SEQ PC is communicating with EQ computer.

I am running REDHAT 8 with SEQ latest CVS pull version 4, QT 3.0.5, Gcc3.3.0.4, Gcc3-c++ 3.0.4, libstdc++3-3.0.4. SEQ seemed to compile correctly and installed fine. I have also installed the patches seq06252003.zip and sequp_062003.zip that I have found on the forums and also have installed the last patch for SEQ (quickpatch.diff)

My Redhat 8 install is all packages (4gig) with no firewall selected. I am running as root . I am just stuck at this point.

thanks,

Booboo

Did you copy LibEQ.h to libeq.h ?

(just a guess .. I used the same patches that you did on clean RH8 and worked great) above was the only other step I had to do.

[Booboo]

I have done it this way...

cp libeq.h libEQ.h

but you state the other way. Can you explain please?
