Run Servers under a username?

Post by NineteenEleven »

Is there a way I can run my game servers under a specified user in windows, instead of SYSTEM?

I ask because I like to still have back end console access when making changes.

You can use the broker.

The broker should stay open. If you run it from the command prompt does it show an error?

Is the demo license restricted? because I tried just about everything to get the monitor started and it just wont. The broker still wont start either.

Broker will work withough a license. Not real sure why that isn't work for you.

The demo is not restricted. Check the monitor's log file, ugccmon.log.

Your first post from your event log, with the "Source AtBroker", does not apply to the broker. Try opening a command prmpt, cd'ing to where the broker is and run if from there to see if it shows an error message.

i was able to get the monitor to work by re installing UGCC, and using a different license. but the broker still will not work

when starting it from the command prompt it does the same thing, opens a window and immediately closes it. no error or pause.

okay i found the correct event log, guess ill look for this dll
Application popup: UgccBroker.exe - Unable To Locate Component : This application has failed to start because MSVCR100_CLR0400.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.

edit: well that did it, i put that dll in the 'tools' folder, and it worked.

Ok, I see why. I built the broker against .net 4.0. Opps.

Next update will target the 3.5 version. Thanks for letting me know.
