World: r3wp

thør has a message on the REBOL Googlegroup:

<<Could you please set up an account for me? I've been trying to 
get in
for months now, but the guest/guest credentials seem to have been
disabled.>>

Seems a better method for promoting this world and enabling people 
to join is overdue.

Graham, it says AltME version 1.1.25 here under OSX. Not sure, if 
it's an alpha or beta release.

1.1.27 downloaded now ... wonder about changes too ... changelog 
anywhere?

.27 adds file history

thanks

maybe it would be nice to add the download dialog/decision before 
it starts downloading. I know it is fast on most connections, but 
slightly confusing on my GPRS - it seems like app is being blocked 
"checking for updates", while actually it is already downloading 
an update ... just a suggestion ...

Is there a way to create a shorcut to start a world?

I know the -w WORLDNAME to log on a world, but can't find how to 
start a world this way in the doc.

yourpath/altme.exe -s "your world" -p Portnumber

In windows this is placed in the shortcut's target field.

Ok, updates are coming frequently now. It's 1.1.28 under OSX now. 
I couldn't send messages just before, probably because a new version 
was released. After closing and restarting AltME, I can send again. 
:-)

interesting that updates aren't checked until you log onto a world... 
so updates are world specific?

I just had "invalid datatype during recycle" error:-(

oldes, which platform? AFAIK, windows version hasn't been upgraded 
to 1.3.x yet

Was Altme just down for the last  hour or so?

That is, rebol3 world.

seams so :-)

Henrik: windows version (and today i had another one)

Henrik, it's probably updating files specific to each world.

messages ro what ever.

graham, could be

oldes, MacOSX version seems very stable here, so maybe it will help 
once it goes to 1.3 on windows

i hope so, anyway, it's not such a big problem as it's still very 
rare bug. Altme is great. I'm sometimes using other web forums and 
can compare it with Altme - which has much more better approach (as 
I don't need to load huge HTML all the time to just check if someone 
answered my question:)

FYI: When the disk runs full under MacOSX, AltME displays an error: 
"AltME Error: Registry: cannot load dataset files: 2" Perhaps something 
a bit more informative could be done?

Logged.

Altme tells me a new binary's 042 is avaiable (linux).. Wehn i download 
it im unable to execute it afterwards..any hint ?

Does the file have execute flag set?
To get a long list and see flags: ls -l
To set execute flags: chmod +x <file>

(above should be written in a unix shell like bash, of course)

Its downloading 042 it tells me but in the /versions dir there is 
this -> altme1-1-1-4-2

Not an execatuble.. But its has an ELF header... unable to execute 
it in anyway..

im using now 1.0.2

its simply not a linux binary...

at least not a correct one..

-bash: ./altme1-1-1-4-2: cannot execute binary file

ELFÔ4ð4 (4 @ë@ë@ë@{^@{^ÜføÅ\\á^\á^ÀÀ/lib/ld-linux.so.2ÅÍx"

unable to do anything with it..

I just downloaded the Debian version manualy from Altme!! Its runs 
out of the box on Slackware 10.2 !! (just that you know it ;-)

From this link? http://www.altme.com/download/altme-debian-beta.tar.gz

Jups...

http://www.altme.com/download/altme-debian-beta.tar.gz

It has execute permissions, I can see. Maybe it needs another link 
file? Like the lib/ld-linux.so.2

Do you have such a file in your system?

No its not a library problem... Linux is not complaining about a 
library problem... the ELF header is not correct..

ah ok. I can't help then, sorry.

;-) no problem...

Hopefully someone from SafeWorlds will step by and give you a hint.

Well perhpas they do.. At the moment the Debian version is just running 
great ;-)

Automatic updating is not working for me, either. It keeps downloading 
the update at every AltME start but won't carry out the upgrade

Can someone tell me how I have to setup to AltME (on Windows) so 
that it directly connects to a specific world?

Click "Auto-return to previsous world" in the settings.

Well, I have three worlds open at the same time.
