update
Hallöle,
die Arbeiten machen Fortschritten. Die InterregionComs sind nun komplett umgestellt. (Siehe frühere postings, die Kommunikation zwischen den Regionen, z.B. bei Teleport).
Version über und unter 8447 können nicht wirklich miteinander reden.
(D.h. Teleports, Regionscrossing, IM usw werden dazwischen nicht funktionieren)
Ich selber werde morgen oder Sonntag auch auf über 8447 updaten.
Mir mangelts grad was an zeit - deswegen hier der beste Text dazu in Englisch. Vieleicht mag jemand übersetzen.
Die Stabilität sollte sich nun innerhalb der Bugfixe der nächsten tage wieder ergeben. Die Codebereinigung geht weiter, auch eine Umstrukturierung der opensim.ini steht an - u.a. um grössere Installationen besser managbar zu machen.
SVN 8525, you no longer need to listen on port 8895 (or whatever you have set up your server to listen on because this is configurable) when connecting a region server to a grid (like hooking up a region to OS Grid), hence
remoting_listener_port =3D 8895
can be removed from the ini, and you can hence close that port on your router because it isn't used any more.
Remoting is just one method of communicating with other stuff over the internet, and has until now required OpenSim to use an extra port for interregion communication. Now, instead of using Remoting, Diva's changes mean that HTTP is used instead, and this means the main HTTP port set in your ini:
http_listener_port =3D 9000=20
(or, again, whatever port number you are configured to listen on) is now also used for interregion communications (joining a grid successfully).=20
XML RPC is a protocol that is used by the remote administration tools that many people use. It operates over the main http_listener_port setting, hence the default of 9000 is also used for this sort of communication. Those tools will be unaffected by this change.
What this also means, which Diva stated, is that you can't mix and match between older OpenSim instances and this newer OpenSim code. You can't have regions expecting communication on port 8895 and not hearing anything back - you need to be on a similar version of OpenSim (>=3D =
8525)
cheers,
Ralf
