    Game Server Install Problems Call of Duty

    Hi,

    I have a VPS with CoreVPS.(CentOS 4.0 using Webmin)

    Trying to install Call of Duty Linux Dedicated Server.
    Having a few problems with dependencies.

    Trying to install
    libstdc++
    libstdc++-devel-3.4.3-9.EL4.i386
    gcc-c++-3.4.3-9.EL4.i386
    gcc

    But when I try either of them they have problems.

    Here is the actually error when trying to ./cod_lnxded
    > ./cod_lnxded
    ./cod_lnxded: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


    Obvisously tried to install libstdc++.so.5 but needs some other stuff.

    Is there a way of installing all 6GB of the CentOS cd's so that all the libraries are installed >> Through Webmin or SSH?

    Thanks

    PS quite new to Linux so go easy with the jargon. Cheers

    stuart,

    I would highly recommend against installing 'everything', and just go ahead and install the requirements.

    It is a pain in the butt working with dependencies - but we all have to do it!

    Got this problem.

    > mv libstdc++-devel-3.4.2-6.fc3.i386.rpm libstdc++.rpm
    > mv libstdc++.rpm /download
    > cd /download
    > ls
    libstdc++.rpm
    > rpm -ivh libstdc++.rpm
    warning: libstdc++.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 4f2a6fd2
    error: Failed dependencies:
    libstdc++ = 3.4.2-6.fc3 is needed by libstdc++-devel-3.4.2-6.fc3.i386

    Its saying basically blah.rpm need blah.rpm ????

    Where do I go from here?
    Has anyone had any luck install a game server through shh, where the OS has no libraries installed......

    Thanks

    why not try:

    yum install libstdc++ (might have to try a few other filenames to get the correct one)

    Anyways, do you really think you can run a game on a vps?
    Usually games are ment for a dedicated server...

    I think I might give up on the linux front, and try from a different angle.

    Is it possible if I use my old Windows 2000 Pro license to install that on my vps instead.

    I could upload win2k files to my other webspace.

    How whould I go about removing linux and installing windows on a vps???

    Is it actually doable??

    Thanks

    It is not possible to do it remotely without the DC's help and a KVM/IP. Why would you give up on the linux front from one simple library missing?
