Windows Client Installation

[SirGolan]

I just checked out the server logs to find out what happened. I think there may be a bug in the timezone handling code of the login process. I've never tested it from another timezone before, and unless the time on your computer is way off, it's apparently got a bug. As part of the login process, the client sends an encrypted token it generates which includes the time to the server. The server validates that the time is within a few minutes of being correct to ensure that no one stole your token and is trying to reuse it. Anyway, something's up with that.

It's also possible that your timezone is off, or python is somehow getting the wrong timezone on Vista. If you have a second, try this in python:

Code: Select all

mike@nighteyes:~/Projects/MV3D/branches/version-0.3$ python
Python 2.4.4 (#2, Apr  5 2007, 20:11:18)
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from time import timezone
>>> timezone
18000


Just let me know what the value is, and if it corresponds to your actual (hours_from_UTC) * -60.

Hello,

Here is my timing information.

C:\Users\Home>python
Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Feb 21 2008, 13:11:45) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on
win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from time import timezone
>>> timezone
28800
>>>
^C
C:\Users\Home>time
The current time is: 8:43:39.65

C:\Users\Home>date
The current date is: Tue 04/01/2008

I'm also using python 2.5

Thanks,

[multiverseuser]

Do I need pyTime?

I was reading how to configure twisted and I noticed there was a python timezone.

Well... I tried it but I get the same number.

[multiverseuser]

Actually is pyTZ not pyTime, Sorry

[SirGolan]

I just removed the time check from the server, so with any luck, you should be able to connect now. I looked at the code, and I think I misunderstood how time.timezone deals with daylight savings time.

hello,

I do not get the login windows anymore but I get the following error
I think is missing a module call caelum.

Oh, I think that you may need to get the updated Python-Ogre 1.1 from here: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/python ... g_mirror=0

I keep forgetting that the base 1.1 release didn't include that library.

[multiverseuser]

Hello,

Yes, finally I was able to login successfully

I installed the package PythonOgre_1.1.b.exe by doing

Code: Select all

c:\download>python setup.py install


I figured this EXE patched my current version of python-ogre.
So I run Runclient.py

Thanks for all your help.

I have a few more questions but I will create another topic

Client Installation (Windows)
I edited out all the instructions found here is favor of the wiki page.

[SirGolan]

Wow, that's a great writeup! Mind if I put it in the readme.txt files?

The Python-Ogre guys had some ideas as to how to make the install easier over on this thread. I'm going to see if I can get those working.

Definitely, the best option for installing (for non developers) is py2exe since it wouldn't require all the prereqs, but as I mentioned in that thread, I haven't gotten it working yet.
