Java Command Line Help

[majebrad]

I'm trying to run http://sourceforge.net/projects/jsettlers on my site, but it requires that I initialize a server with the command:

 

java soc.server.SOCServer 8880 10

 

But I'm not sure how to exactly go about that. I've tried phpShell, but there is no java command and running the command from a init file isn't working either.

 

There is a bin file that can be ran; however, it seems to be asking for the location of the java SDK... this I assume is available, but hidden in a file that I cannot access or see.

 

Any help discerning where I should go next would be greatly appreciated.

Please open a Help Desk ticket (link above) and ask.

 

And for future reference phpShell is a banned script on these servers. See this post.

 

And, welcome to the family.

Alright phpShell has been removed, but there are a few posts that discuss the usage of the script by staff (even though the posts are pretty old) that could be misleading.

Once upon a time TCH allowed SSH (shell) access to the servers, and therefore phpshell was allowed as well. That policy has since changed (for shared servers), but that is why you can still find old posts referring to both of those no longer allowed access methods.

 

In addition, running server side daemons (services) by users on shared hosting isn't allowed, and won't work (it's blocked). To make that game work, you have to run a server process to allow the game clients to connect to it.

 

I'm sorry about the above, but allowing a user to run their own process on a server port of a shared server has too many security issues to allow.
