  • Doorparty for Synchronet

    From Charles Stephenson@1:226/17 to All on Thu May 28 19:40:37 2020
    Hello all,

    I'm trying to setup Doorparty for my BBS (Synchronet 3.18-Linux) and after following the instructions. (Not sure if I did EVERYthing right). when I go to try to load DP up, it exits with this error:

    Connecting to DoorParty, please wait ...!ERROR -1 (111) connecting to server localhost

    Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

    Thanks

    Which instructions did you follow, and what part are you not sure about?

    Connecting to DoorParty, please wait ...!ERROR -1 (111) connecting to
    server localhost

    Is DoorParty Connector installed and running?

    Todd and me went over the setup, I followed the Wiki, but the linux instructions weren't there. but after seing this message, there were things I didn't set up and now have set up.

    Is DoorParty Connector installed and running?

    Yes, DP has been running for over 2 years, I have another BBS (Enigma) using DP, but it didn't need the connector running.

    THAT was huge help, sort of. it stopped exiting with that error I posted before. Now it just exits. I think I know what it is, I'll have to fix it this weekend. I'll keep you updated.

    Thanks
