[Opensim-users] Diva distro vs. OpenSim release 0.7.3 in SaHg mode

Sun Mar 18 22:51:25 UTC 2012

Hi Diva,

I have been using the compiled OpenSim software downloads for over three years.  Now, thanks to your hard work and innovation I can also work exclusively and effectively in Standalone-Hypergrid configuration (AKA "serverless grid").  For hardware optimization reasons, I choose to run multiple OpenSim instances all on the same box.  And, each OpenSim instance in turn, runs multiple regions.  In total, I have 256 contiguous (adjcent) regions that form a 4x4 sq km Sim.  Again, thank your for developing the SaHg mode technology so expertly.  It is making my PhD research possible.

Unfortunately, while working with OpenSim 0.7.2 I had no trouble TP'ing between OpenSim instances nor, obviously, between regions.  Moreover, I was able to see the entire map of my Sim within my SL1.23 viewer and could see into the adjacent Sims/regions anywhere where there were two, three, or four regions "touching" each other - even if they were in different OpenSim instances.

I confess, I'm having trouble upgrading to 0.7.3 and I'm asking for your advice.  I've noticed your "diva distribution" uses two Config-Include files while the main OpenSim 0.7.3 downloads for the same Standalone-Hypergrid functionality uses three.  This difference and the fact that while using the current OpenSim source downloads for 0.7.3 compiled into a newbie/MySQL install, i.e., no special settings for XEngine, Wind/Sun, Physics, etc., I have been unable to replicate the performance of 0.7.2.  That is, no TP'ing between regions and no seeing into adjacent Sims/regions.

Did anyone build a 0.7.3 "serverless grid" similar to my setup (even with just two OpenSim instance each with one region) before the OpenSim source was released?  Or, perhaps, is there someone in the user's group who has two or more OpenSim-website-downloaded SaHg Sims working that can say for certain they can TP between Sims and see into/across Sim/region boundaries.

I'm frustrated, can you offer some advice?  Justin and the rest of the entire Dev team has done such great work.  And I am eager to try out the new 64-bit physics opportunities delivered in 0.7.3 in my Sim.  But for now, I'm stuck.

Best regards,

Chris

  oh man. This release is full of hickups. This was the result of an undocumented configuration change. I fixed the release notes for 0.7.3, and made a new d2 release diva-r18222-c with that fixed. Hopefully, third time is the charm.

  The fix is very easy, you don't need to download the new package again. Just edit config-include/DivaPreferences.ini and in the
  [GridService] section add
  HypergridLinker = true

  That's all I did for the -c package.

  Thanks for reporting.

    Hi all (again)

    After upgrading toi diva-r18222-b, hypergate and blamgate stopped functioning (teleports using landmarks to external regions seem to work properly though).

    In Myworld.ini file I have made changes suggested in http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Installing_and_Running_Hypergrid#Configuration_for_OpenSimulator_0.7.3 (mainly removed /profile in some parameters) and it looks like:

    .

    What am I doing wrong?

    Am I supposed to use my external or the internal ip address?

    Should I or shoud I not remove /profile in the parameters?

    Should I make changes to other files as well? 

    Thanks in advance for your replies
