Porting characters using Vaulster....Problems

[BanedonSkyRider]

Hi

I'm trying to do the following: use vaultster to port a players BIC file to another server and then port the player him/herself to that same server.

I have installed NWNX2 and also Vaultster to each server's main NWN folder.
Following that, I have made two test modules. Each setuip to allow a player to click on an area transition. Once clicked on, the script tries to use vaultster to export the player's .BIC file and then follow that up with a ActivatePortal command to forward the player to the server.
Pretty much what vaultster is designed to do.

Unfortunately, all I get is Failed to portal the character file.
When I look into the vaulster log I see:

NWNX2 Vaultster version 1.4.6 for Windows.

o Using WinSock 2.2.
o Loading in 0 known servers.
o Server started on port 5100.
o Start searching for porttest*.bic
o Searching for .\BanedonSkyRider\porttest*.bic
o Could not find latest file for BanedonSkyRider\porttest!
o There was an error during the transmission.
o Retreived status for BanedonSkyRider\porttest = 3

Each server is stored in C:\NWNserver\<nwn executables>
I have tried this on the internet with the same values and now am trying it across a LAN.
Here's the details of each server:

This is the OnClick part of the area transition that uses vaultster. I have removed the portal command as at the moment I'm just trying to port the .BIC file.

#include "vaultster_inc"

void main ()
{
object oPC = GetEnteringObject();
string sIP = GetLocalString(OBJECT_SELF, "IP");
int ret = PortalPC (oPC, sIP);
if (ret == VAULTSTER_OK) {
SendMessageToPC (oPC, "Portalling...(" + sIP + ")");
DelayCommand (1.0f, ExecuteScript ("CheckStatus", oPC));
}
else
SendMessageToPC (oPC, "Failure with portalling.");
}

I have porttest.bic in c:\nwnserver\servervault\banedonskyrider
Hmmm. Wonder where the * in porttest*.bic came from...?

[Papillon]

Hmm, I did not write the module but since Jeroen is no longer around, I'll try to help anyway.

From looking at the sources, it looks like it is searching for the configuration in "nwnx.ini", [VAULTSTER]:

im trying to get my vualtster to work also it will find the bic file but it gets errors o connection also i have look every where for this script called CheckStatus and i can't seem to find it anywhere can u help me out.

[Zebranky]

We're going to need more to go on than that. Make sure:
* you have the same port, key and password on both ends
* validateclient is turned off for testing
* the port is not blocked by a firewall

If possible, post logs.

I don't think CheckStatus is anywhere to be found, but I posted a script that should get you started back in this thread: http://www.nwnx.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=1247

And wow, zombie thread...

<ThriWork> whenever I hear nwn extender, I think what does NWN need a penis extender for?

Banedon, was a resolution ever found on this issue? I am atemptting something very similiar in testing and am running into what looks like the same problems. If a solution was found, please advise ^_^
