Call of duty waw

Hi,

I am busy installing the panel and monitor service on my machines. (windows 2k3)
So far so good, most games are working like it expected. thumbs up!!

But with cod5 i seem to have a problem. It starts CoDWaWmp.exe like it should be, but seems that it wont start the server, ie wont start the config etc etc. (loggings from the server also wont start)

I had this problem with firedeamon to, my work around was starting it like the administrator.

Is there a workaround in UGCC as well, or an option in in the panel, or is there some windows setting i overlooked.
In windows i already checked:

Account privileges
Disable visual themes.
Run in compatibility mode.

But none seems to work for me.

The server starts normal with a shortcut when i login with remote desktop. So config and game install are good to.

Can you advise me.

I've found with WaW that that the panel/monitor needs to be ran from a user account. If you change the service settings for the monitor and www app-pool to run as administrator, it works fine. I'm looking into finding a fix for this.

If you need help with changing the accounts, let me know which os you are running.

I just patched cod:waw to the latest, and it started up fine for me with the following commandline:

Code: Select all

+set dedicated 2 +set sv_maxclients 10 +set sv_punkbuster 1 +exec server.cfg +map_rotate 

I'm running Windows 7 and the panel and monitor are running as the SYSTEM user.

I am using windows 2003 r2, how can i change that the monitor runs from a user account.
I found MonService.cfg and changed the user there, but where need that file to be located.

Go into control panel-->administrative tools-->services

Look for ugccmon, right click-->properties.

Log on Tab, and set the username/password of the account you want it to run as. Also be sure to restart the service while you are there so it operates as the new user.
