CHECKLIST FOR SETUP/RUN PROBLEMS
----------------------------------
Before you assume there is something wrong with the door or you
cannot get it to run on your system please check the following.
If you answer yes to any of them you are doing something wrong.
_____ - You forgot to run SETUP.EXE to initialize the config file.
_____ - You forgot to modify the DOOR.CTL file first.
_____ - You forgot to run DATAPAGE /L to initialize the user data
file.
_____ - The start up batch routine does not get the drop file
INTO the game directory OR tell the game where the drop
file can be found.
_____ - You are running a fossil but forgot to configure the
appropriate CTL file to show that you are using a fossil
and at what speed you have locked the port. Use the XFossil
option in the DOOR.CTL file for speeds above 38400.
----- - You have not tried to change to a different drop file format
to see if that might be the problem.
----- - You do NOT have ALL the files in the same directory.
_____ - You did not put any directories in the DIRLIST.TXT file.
(refer: sysop.doc)
_____ - You put directories in the DIRLIST.TXT file but they are not
subdirectories of your DataPage directory. (refer: sysop.doc)
_____ - You are running DataPage instead of DP.BAT. You must
now run DP.BAT to run DataPage.
OK, I have not done anything wrong based on the above. What do I
do now? If it is a door problem fill out the bugrpt.frm completely
and then package it up with any error logs, your CTL file and the
batch routine which runs the game, and transmit it to me via fido
(1:255/304), log onto my BBS (902-892-3395) and upload it to me, or
email me the package to mburkepei@hotmail.com
Use the first 8 letters (or less) to name the package. For example
MICHAEL.ZIP would be the name of my compressed package containing the
BUGRPT.FRM and other required files which I might submit. Please note
that I will probably NOT respond to ANY inquiries or bug reports unless
I get these things!
