- CHECKLIST FOR SETUP/PLAY PROBLEMS
- ----------------------------------
-
- Before you assume there is something wrong with the door(s) or you
- cannot get them to run on your system please check the following.
- If you answer yes to any of them you are doing something wrong.
-
- 1. Nodeview:
-
- _____ - You forgot to make sure SHARE is loaded (for Multi-node only)
-
- _____ - You did not replace your old nodeview.ctl file prior to
- setting up this new version. Applicable ONLY if you are
- upgrading from a previous version then 1.03
- NOTE: do NOT delete your Registration data before backing
- it up somewhere.
-
- _____ - The start up batch routine does not get the drop file
- INTO the door directory OR tell the door 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 NODEVIEW.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 ANSI.SYS installed.
-
- ----- - You do NOT have ALL the Nodeview files in the same directory?
-
- ----- - You are trying to use your own download protocol's- please
- for simplicity download the cexzy.zip file from my BBS, see
- Nodeview.doc for details.
-
- 3. 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 door, and transmit it to me via fido
- (1:205/65) or log onto my BBS and upload it to me. Use the first 8
- letters (or less) to name the package. For example LARNED.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 NOT
- respond to ANY inquiries or bug reports unless I get these things!
