Couldn't connect to the server...
We probably couldn't start it from here
You'll have to start one manually. Sorry...
Every time I try Start New Game, the same four messages are displayed.
When launched the client from the command line got this:
bash wrote:$ freeciv-gtk
(freeciv-gtk3:27155): Gtk-WARNING **: 21:30:48.612: Theme parsing error: gtk.css:244:33: The :insensitive pseudo-class is deprecated. Use :disabled instead.
1: Failed to connect to spawned server!
With -d 3 I got this:
bash wrote:$ freeciv-gtk -d 3
(freeciv-gtk3:27403): Gtk-WARNING **: 21:37:46.607: Theme parsing error: gtk.css:244:33: The :insensitive pseudo-class is deprecated. Use :disabled instead.
3: Reading registry
3: Metaserver says latest 'stable' version is '2.6.0'; we have '2.6.0'
3: Arguments to spawned server: -p 5557 --bind localhost -q 1 -e --saves ~/.freeciv/saves --scenarios ~/.freeciv/scenarios -A none
1: Failed to connect to spawned server!
Next I tried launching the server with the same command line:
bash wrote:$ freeciv-server -p 5557 --bind localhost -q 1 -e --saves ~/.freeciv/saves --scenarios ~/.freeciv/scenarios -A none
This is the server for Freeciv version 2.6.0
You can learn a lot about Freeciv at http://www.freeciv.org/
This freeciv-server program has player authentication support, but it's currently not in use.
0: bind failure: Address already in use (3 failed)
2: Host: 127.0.0.1, Port: 5557 (IPv4)
Not sure where to go from here. What else uses port 5557? I have no other freeciv running, this was a fresh install.
