[Opensim-users] HyperGrid Issues

Thu Dec 27 16:19:56 UTC 2012

Chris,

Thanks for sending all this information. For the record, the DynDNS and loopback was the first obstacle I attacked and was extremely successful with. I know that part works fine as I have had others login after I registered them.

I wish Cincinnati was closer than it is from me in Clarksville, TN. I’d just jump in the car and come over. I’ll look on the FleepGrid and see if there is a way for me to make contact with you via personal email rather than via opensim-users.

If not, I’ll report back here for an update for anyone else having similar issues.

Randy

I forgot to add, if you're serious about running your own publicly accessible Opensim grid from home, I'm a big fan of registering an actual domain name and getting a static IP address from your ISP - that resolved nearly all the networking issues I ran into when I was first trying to set up FleepGrid. I never could get the dyndns and NAT loopback stuff working properly on my network.

Sincerely,

- Chris/Fleep

Hi Randy,

Based on the 192.168.x.x IP addresses, I'm assuming you're doing all this on a home network.  On the issue of the Hypergrid, I've found that I am unable to hypergrid from any machine on my home network EXCEPT the machine running the ROBUST server.  That is, if I open the client on the same machine running ROBUST, I can HG jump to other grids, but if I open the client on any other machine on my home network, HG jump does not work and I see the same kinds of errors you posted in your original post.  

I keep hoping at some point there will be a fix to that, since I basically can't use the Hypergrid from my own grid at all as a result, but for now if I want to go HG visiting other grids, I have to log in to someone else's grid as the starting point to jumping around.

Regarding your instance setup, in pretty much all cases, I think you will want to use the FQDN instead of IP address in your configuration files since internal IP addresses will never resolve from outside your home network.  In case it's useful, I post copies of my .ini files on the FleepGrid Change Log page at: http://fleep.wikispaces.com/FleepGrid.

I also recently mapped out my directory structure for the multiple Opensim instances I run for the region clusters at:  http://fleep.wikispaces.com/Directory+Structure+for+FleepGrid.

Not sure if that helps, but maybe take a look and if you have other questions will try to help.

Good luck!

- Chris/Fleep

Well Fleep -> bad news. I have read both posts by Diva in their entirety and they did not repair the problem.

I am attempting to solve multiple problems simultaneously and not having luck with any of them.

Meanwhile, rather than open up another thread I am running into another issue.

I am attempting to split region loads across multiple computers (all running windows xp and 0.7.4) but cannot for the life of me get the SQL to be able to be accessed from computer #2. Computer #1 (and the rest of the world) can access the SQL file as they can login and all services are there. But my computer #2 reports the following during OpenSim startup:
