segfault with fresh 1.5 build, entering online game (local game works fine) about hase HOT 14 OPEN

It's because the server is not working properly, and replies Internal Server Error.

So we have in create_game() in line 499 of client.c :
result = sendMessage(message,NULL,NULL,0,"create_game.php",hase_url);

sendMessage sends POST /hase/server17/create_game.php HTTP/1.1 etc.
The server replies

HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error

result becomes NULL and thus create_game returns NULL, which is then used in ll_calc() without checking if it's valid.

from hase.

if i print after_start, gdb says it's zero / 0, so if i change
after_start = (game->status != 0); to
after_start = 0; //temptest
the next segfault comes line 1342
1342 (game->local == 1 && text_box(font,resize,"Enter player name:",gop_username(),32,1,NULL,0) == 1)

so looks like game has a null pointer... why this?
(gdb) print game $1 = (pGame) 0x0

from hase.

So to start a game maybe I can host own server? Anyone interested in tweaking hase to make it easy to do?

from hase.

Hey guys, I don't have time to dig into this null pointer bug, but at least the server is working again :)

from hase.

Er, I'm still getting Internal Server Error responses...

from hase.

No Internal Server Error anymore but a crash instead. >.< I will see what I can do. 😉

from hase.

Okay, no crash for me anymore, but still an internal server error at ed's site and I know now why: I am using mysql_connect which is not supported by php7 anymore. -_-

Let's see what I can do 😃

from hase.

Thank you for your time theZiz.

How often does Hase really need to communicate with other players? Could turn-data be sent to other players in a private irc channel, so the game can run serverless?

from hase.

@clort81 Technically that would be possible, but is still not serverless. A irc server is a server, too. However as I did not receive an answer from the server owner yet and I have my own homeserver running in my apartment I will move the hase server to my own hardware afap. Unfortunately that does not mean a lot as I have not very much spare time atm. But I will keep you updated!

from hase.

Still no luck with server. And starting a local game in gdb gives me:

I just released a new version. Hopefully this is working for you now. :)

from hase.

thanks ziz! hope your year is going well (cough)

Currently online games are broken again
0x0040dbc0 in start_lobby_game (font=0x6ec718, resize=0x402969 , game=0x0, spectate=0)
at lobbyGame.c:1331
1331 after_start = (game->status != 0);
Right after i finally persuaded some friends to try hase :)

Of course i can host my own server, which maybe i should have been doing for a long time anyway.

from hase.

Okay, I just checked, to server works. And my hase build, too. Can you try to most recent version?

Sorry for the late response. I got a new job and it's quite exhausting. Hope to be able to increase my response time in the future... :\

Please make also sure that hase sets up the right server. It should do this automatically but well this is quite untested. 🙄 So in your config.ini (probably in $HOME/.config/hase) should be this line:

server: hase.schmidt-matthes.de/hase.php

from hase.

Thanks for response theZiz. I occasionally try to insist that friends try Hase. I'm stubborn like that :) Will give it a try by the weekend. And hopefully get a package finished. We still have SDL problems on leste.
