How to Activate licensekey.dat?!?

[xp0wnrodnitold]

Hello

I have a non-profit licensekey, but i don't know how to use it.
I uploaded it on mijn server, but he doesn't accept it.

Can someone tell me where i have to put licensekey.dat and what i have to do to activate the key.

(I have a VPS where i have installed teamspeak3)

Thanks allot!

1. Upload the Licencekey.dat to the Root Folder of TS.

Most used:

/home/ts3

U know your Folder...



2. Restart the Server

3. Edit the Max Clients (i think you will that)

I dit that, but he doesn't take it.
If i try to create a server he gives this error

error id=2816 msg=virtualserver\slimit\sreached

I don't know what to do.

Are you see your License if you start the Server?

[xp0wnrodnitold]

Do you know the commands to restart the server?

I use:

serverstop sid=1
serverstart sid=1

Are theise commands right to restart the server or should i restart it in a other way?

Because now he doesn't take the licensekey.dat!

Restart the whole serverprocess, not only the ts3-virtualserver

[xp0wnrodnitold]

What i have to do for that?
Can you give he the commands or explane how to do that?

the command should be "serverprocessstop" and then you have to execute your serverstartscript from within a shell-console.
The startscript normally is "ts3server_startscript.sh"

[xp0wnrodnitold]

well i did on the serverquery

login serveradmin xxxxxxxx
serverprocessstop

Then I did

[root@srv1 teamspeak3-server_linux-x86]# ./ts3server_startscript.sh start
ts3server.pid found, but no server running. Possibly your previously started server crashed
Please view the logfile for details.
WARNING ! For security reasons we advise: DO NOT RUN THE SERVER AS ROOT

What now to do?
Because the teamspeakserver isn't online.

read the newest logfile in the subfolder "logs" of your teamspeak-installation, there should be everything written down, what is wrong. If you don't understand the messages, then post it here and ask.

Yea well, We re-created the error above and as you said check for a log file the weird things is after;

[crossfire@srv1 teamspeak3-server_linux-x86]$ ./ts3server_startscript.sh status
Server seems to have died
[crossfire@srv1 teamspeak3-server_linux-x86]$ ./ts3server_startscript.sh start
ts3server.pid found, but no server running. Possibly your previously started server crashed

The last line in the last logfile just show's that I stopped the server,

2010-02-25 16:05:24.909239|INFO |VirtualServer | 1| stopped

[Master_D]

ok, delete the ts3server.pid and start again.

[xp0wnrodnitold]

ok, delete the ts3server.pid and start again.

We tried that, Didn't work.

It just said that it started but we couldn't connect..

[Master_D]

please post the whole content of the newest log-file. There must be an output, that describes the problem.
