o Disk Space:
Make sure you have approximately 7 MB of temporary free disk space

disk space (the current required disk space depends on the amount of

disk space (the actual required disk space depends on the amount of
users, logs etc).
o ANSI-C Compiler:
Make sure you have an ANSI-C compiler installed. The GNU C compiler
(GCC) from the Free Software Foundation (FSF) is recommended.

To prepare the compilation, enter the src directory of the LPC driver and
execute './configure' (which will run the 'settings/psyced' script).
The default target directory is '/opt/psyced' or a subdirectory of your
home directory if you are installing in user mode. Please edit the
'settings/psyced' script if you need a different path. You may want to
tweak some compilation configuration settings contained in that file,
but there isn't a need to.
After configuration is finished, you may want to modify the Makefile
to fine tune those parameters which are not covered by the configuration.
(like maybe change 'INSTALL=./install.sh -c' to 'INSTALL=./install.sh')

3. Configuring psycMUVE
3. Configuring psyced
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We have a very very useful web-based configuration tool.
The installation process will direct you to it. If you want to
activate it manually, edit local/local.h and add the following
line: '#define WEB_CONFIGURE' - As you restart the MUVE you will
be able to use it at [10]http://localhost:44444/net/http/configure
Either install.sh has generated a psyced.ini for you, or your
software management tools have produced one for you. It usually
resides in /etc/psyc, but you may have chosen to put it elsewhere.
Careful who else may have access to the localhost address.
If in doubt, simply disable WEB_CONFIGURE after use.
Have a look into that file to ensure it has all the settings you
want. There are some further configuration options in there that
install.sh hasn't asked you about.
Should you need to access the configuration tool from a remote host,
using a tunneling technology like ssh is probably the safest approach.
If that is not an option you need to put the IP number of your browsing
client (or an abbreviation of it, like "127.0.0." with a trailing dot)
into the local/hosts.h file in your configuration directory.
The syntax is something like:
Every time you change that file you need to feed it to the
psyconf command which will generate several control files for
your psyced installation. Editing those files by hand is not
recommended as a new call to 'psyconf' will simply delete any
manual changes.
#define ENABLE_HOSTS "192.168.0.1"
If the IP number is only dynamic, it is certainly a good idea to
remove that entry after web configuration is complete.
We also have a very neat web-based configuration tool. Unfortunately
it hasn't been updated to work with the new configuration strategy.
Still, 'psyconf' is enough for most things.
4. Troubleshooting
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
LDMUD will compile TLS in, even if you told install.sh not to use it.
* Should you attempt to run psyced as root, you may later experience problems
running it under the uid you actually were planning to use, because files
have been generated that belong to root. 'chown -R ' repairs that.
* Should erq refuse to compile, your system might be providing a less recent
resolver library. Add '-lresolv' manually to LIBS in the Makefile and
re-issue 'make' (theroue had this effect on Slackware).
* We recently had a bug in the install.sh by which the line in the 'mypsyced'
file which is in charge of calling ./configure was broken in two and thus
only one half of the flags were used. Should you find #undef TLS in your
config.h it is quite likely that 'mypsyced' is literally broken in two.
* The LPC driver will have TLS in, even if you told install.sh not to use it.
This allows you to change your mind later on and shouldn't be a problem,
but if it is, edit src/config.h to #undef USE_TLS and redo the compilation.
There is a problem specific to the LDMUD 3.3.610 version, when it comes to
compilation: It doesn't set the #define USE_TLS properly in config.h even
if the configure settings file tells it to. Please edit src/config.h
accordingly and recompile. Other than that 610 is very stable and a good
choice!
* Recent variants of psyclpc and LDMUD complain when you compile TLS in, then
don't have a certificate to go with it. You can safely ignore it. This and
related messages are harmless and need no treatment:
'SSL error:02001002:system library:fopen:No such file or directory.'
You may also have to add the --tls-key options into the commandline
in bin/psycmuve. Just look into it and you'll see what I mean.
* There are however recent problems with gnutls. psyclpc and LDMUD are being
used with openssl in most cases, so the gnutls interface may not be up to
date. If you encounter problems, try installing openssl.
If you still encounter problems, please read (Questions and Answers)
at the beginning of this document.
* Should it look for the lpc driver in /usr/sbin although you have it
elsewhere, then psyconf got the architecture guessing wrong. Come
into the chat and show us the first lines of psyconf output, so
we can fix that.
* Sometimes installation problems can be fixed by running a cvs update
on install.sh and bin/psyconf, if they are new and just recently corrected.
If your install.sh doesn't appear updateable, look into the installation
directory - there is another copy. Run 'cvs update install.sh' then copy
it back to where you need it.
* Should you see the message "Failed to load master object 'secure/master'!"
when starting the driver, then you compiled it without the psyced.settings
which the installation process should have used automatically. You can
find them in the config directory.
* "tls_init_connection(): TLS layer hasn't been initialized." usually
happens when you are connecting a TLS port with no TLS on the client
side. But it can also mean that psyclpc didn't successfully read its
key and certificate from the start. Are the permissions correct?
What is psyclpc telling you right after starting up? Is it able to
read your key and certificate file?
* If you make any costum modifications to the psyced source code, you may
run into CVS collisions when running the psyced -u command to
fetch updates. Pay attention to its output, and inspect any file that
was marked with a 'C' (as in collision) manually for repairs.
If you already updated it, you can look for collisions in the output of
psyced -d, the command to see differences between the repository
and your local copy of the software.
* If you still encounter problems, please read (Questions and Answers)
at the beginning of this document. And, as always, come to the developer
chatroom!
