    From Thumper@1:103/705 to All on Tue Oct 20 08:11:00 2020
    Hello All,

    Just got my Doorparty info and have followed the Wiki for dpc2 but getting this
    error message when trying to enter from the BBS:

    !Telgate Error -1 (111)

    I can assume I'm missing something or doing something wrong? Seems the doorparty-connector is not starting as far as I can tell.

    Thanks,

    I'm not sure how to interpret this. DoorParty Connector needs to be launched (outside of your BBS) and left running in the background. Sounds like you may be expecting it to launch on demand.

    I've got it setup to run in the background as a service per the instruction but did get a new error where it tells me it can't find doorparty-connector.ini. I do have that in the opt/doorparty-connector folder with the doorparty-connector. Error reading doorparty-connector.ini: open doorparty-connector.ini: no such file or directory

    The config file (doorparty-connector.ini) needs to be in the working directory when you start doorparty-connector.

    As a test, please try starting it manually (ie. cd to /opt/doorparty-connector and execute ./doorparty-connector).

    That's how I ended up getting it going. I'll try the service setup next when done playing with it. :)
