Server log vs console dump

[Buggie]

If you use well-known script ucc.init, then you in troubles - there no server log, only console dump.

Not all info dumped into console. You need have both, for track and solve different kind of problems.

For fix this, you need specify log=server.log somewhere in ucc.init config, for sent it as param to ucc.

Log appear as server.log in your System dir. If you want use Logs dir: log=../Logs/server.log

There example how do that:
https://github.com/OldUnreal/UnrealTour ... 1255611528

Optionally you can make some renaming some where in ucc.init for store not only last server.log, but last few.

Or you can make it date based via bash power. Be sure it not flood your entire server with logs.

AFAIK ucc.init come from ASU: https://github.com/abfackeln/ut/
So possible it can be patched here, so all who use it can use it with proper logs.

IDK what was the original content of ucc.init after my modifications, but I use

Code: Select all

./ucc-bin ${OPTIONS} >> $MyLogFile &

Or you can make it date based via bash power. Be sure it not flood your entire server with logs.

Code: Select all

ut-server/Logs# ls ucc.init*.log | head
ucc.init-2018-01-01-210741.log
ucc.init-2018-01-02-222456.log

$MyLogFile - be console dump. Not server log.
Server log able write server only. So in your options you need pass parameter for it.

yes in line ~ 115 of ucc.init edit it and change to;

Code: Select all

114  fi
115  MYEXECMD="./ucc server $TMP --nohomedir --lanplay log=server.log"
116  OUTLOG="$MYLOGFILE"

by default it sends to "null"
