Choose avatar

To choose a avatar on registration you have to make some avatar archives

NOTE: I have only tested this with database archives and not file archives. To save a archive in the database you must give it a name ending with ".database"

Note: When displaying textures from the texture server they will be resized to 128x128 and at the bottom will be writen the grid nickname

1. Dress a avatar up like you want it to look
2. Take a picture of it and upload this to the grid
3. in the console of the grid server issue this command

save avatar archive <First> <Last> <Filename> <FolderNameToSaveInto> (--snapshot <UUID>) (--public)

example:

save avatar archive first last hippo.aa folder --snapshot 12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789012 --public

Note: Only pulic ones will be listed on the website.

Trouble Shooting

• Page editor will not load in Administrator Section.

While testing on osgrid.org we resolved this issue by creating a .htaccess file in the root of your website with the following code

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.yourdomain.com$
RewriteRule (.*)$ http://yourdomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]

• Set up your php.ini mail

---

• Says unknow error, or something when wrong right after I turned on opensim..

<skidz> oh.. one thing to note..
<skidz> opensim seems to have a bug.. when making calls to the handler.. the first one always fails after you start opensim
<skidz> It actually runs.. but.. the data is never returned to the php..
<skidz> but.. after that first.. seems to work fine..
<skidz> I have not tried to debug this yet
<skidz> I should add that in the install.. lol

• I get the following message trying to load opensimwi in my web browser:

query("SELECT password FROM ".C_ADMIN_TBL." WHERE password='$_SESSION[ADMINUID]'"); list($admpass) = $DbLink->next_record(); if($admpass){ $ADMINCHECK = $admpass; }else{ $ADMINCHECK = "454"; } if($_POST[adminlogin]=="admincheck"){ $pass = $_POST[password]; $passcheck = md5(md5($pass) . ":" ); $DbLink->query("SELECT username,password FROM ".C_ADMIN_TBL." WHERE username='$_POST[username]'"); list($adminname,$adminpass) = $DbLink->next_record(); if($adminpass == $passcheck){ $_SESSION[ADMINUID] = $adminpass; } } if($_POST[check]==1){ echo ""; } ?>

Resolution: Your PHP is not configured to use short tags or asp style, to fix the problem edit your php.ini and locate the following lines:

Find:
short_open_tag = Off
; Allow ASP-style <% %> tags.
asp_tags = Off

Change to:
short_open_tag = On
; Allow ASP-style <% %> tags.
asp_tags = On

After you save your php.ini restart apache and you should be ok now.
