Hiho,

I was trying to setup a local crossfire server for me and my friends. (Server Version: 1.50.0 / Windows 7)
Installed everything like the wiki told me to.(1. Python, 2. Maps, 3. Server)
But already when I was installing the server itself the setup showed me a message like this:

Code: Select all

Couldn't find Python26.dll Make sure Python is installed, and that Python26.dll is in your PATH.
Server may fail to start if this DLL is not found.
Install Plugin anyway?

choosed "yes", and checked everything (Python 26 is installed, [as well as Python 25], and Python26.dll can be found in my System32 and syswow64 folder)

started the server and got this message:

Code: Select all

[Error]   Error trying to load share/plugins/plugin_python.dll: error 193

except for this the server runs as expected, but without the plugin features like Valkyrie or the elementalchoosing for dragons can't be used.

Anything I can do about this? hope you can help me.

Hello.

You need to ensure Python's "bin" folder (where there is a file like Python26.dll) is in the PATH of the computer.

I'm not sure under Windows 7, but in eg XP the settings is somewhere in computer properties, environment variables.

Another option is to copy your Python's Python26.dll file to Crossfire server's directory, that should work too.
