Hi

I've been working on a script that downloads and installs Magicka and BinkD and sets it all up with fsxnet as a new node on 21:1/999. It's meant for raspberry pi, but should work on debian jessie too.

The idea is to make it easier to get Magicka up and running quickly by doing a lot of the initial configuration for you.

There are two scripts, one magickapi.sh does all the hard work of downloading, installing and configuring as 21:1/999. There is also updatefsx.sh which can be used to update fsxnet to use an actual node number if you've applied and got one. (It only works with node numbers, not points)

It also creates a few scripts you can use,

* runbbs.sh runs the BBS, this should be run from screen or something like that as it doesn't detach (you can configure it to, but that's for advanced users).

* runbinkd.sh runs BinkD, again run from screen.

* updatebbs.sh pulls the latest from github and builds it

* ftn/magitoss.sh this tosses mail into message bases, it's run automatically by binkd.

* ftn/magiscan.sh this scans for mail in the message bases and sends them to binkd to send out. You can run this manually, via a cronjob or set up inotify-tools to watch for semaphores (this is a bit more complicated).

The BBS will be listening on port 2023 for telnet and port 8080 for HTTP. Ftp, SSH and magichat servers are not configured by default.

You can grab the scripts from my homepage, http://andrew.pamment.id.au/ or directly here: http://andrew.pamment.id.au/downloads/magickapi4.tar.gz

Hmmm ... very interesting.

Can you add Magicka to an existing standard fido system?
Eg. use existing JAM messagebases, tosser, ticer and let the BBS do the BBS part, and _ONLY_ the BBS part.

If so, I will take a look at it.
Sadly I have no time for it soon ...

I haven't taken a look.
Is it compiled by the script?
I hope not that it only downloads ARMv7 code ... will not work on x86 ;))

Not really. It uses jamlib, but jamlib was corrupting message bases so I "fixed" it, only I think it might not be compatible anymore I'm not sure. Also Magicka has it's own file tic utility that adds files to the database.

I haven't taken a look.

It is compiled by the script, so should work on x86 too.

Hmm odd.There is no log. Does it display an error when you run the runbbs.sh?

Maybe a silly question but are you running with ./ in front of the runbbs.sh so like

./runbbs.sh

if there is a magicka executable in the MagickaBBS folder it should have been built. if the runbbs.sh still doesnt work and the magicka binary is there you can run with

./magicka config/bbs.ini

Sounds like it, I've just set it running on my pi again, maybe I broke something recently, or possibly I forgot to include a dependency in the script.

Can you do

Good afternoon,
Tried this on a debian jessie machine. It worked up to just past the point where it obtained the desired packages, including git. After that point, it was not able to install any of them, and then it got a bunch of permission denied and "not found in PATH or not executable" errors.

It then tried to change to some directories that did not exist, and tried to compile some things in a directory I was surprised it went looking in (an SBBS source directory) that were not there.

I did some inspection before attempting to run the script. One thing I noticed is that, after each call to git, it was set up to cd into a directory that the script had not created beforehand. I assumed that git would create them but since git never finished installing, it did not.

Not sure why your apt-get failed to install anything, but it did. I have never tried running it from 'sudo', I always su and then run it, so maybe there is something odd on this end for that reason.

My guess is sudo is not set up for you user, debian doesn't set up sudo for a user by default.

To work around it you could do the apt-get command manually as root then run the script.

to let you know it's running as that has come up a couple of times now.

I did try telnetting to 2023 and it did not work. I would assume that the
log directory would not be empty if the program actually started?

I tried that again this morning, and it worked on my x86 system!

Also, I thought maybe it was because I was installing it on an x86 and not an ARM. :) Tried it on my Pi this morning. It appeared to compile correct,
but now I am getting a "Couldn't create socket" error on the Pi. The Pi runs raspbian jessie.

So, now I am 1 for 2. :)

Hope to play with it more later on the x86.

Well, it might get tested here on a debian jessie x86 in a little bit. :)

Thanks for developing it. One of the things that has made me leary of trying to compile other bbs code on my pi is the lack of an easy way to determine
what depenencies I might be missing. The turnkey script idea helps a lot with that.

Hmm, that's odd. I wonder if it's because of my IPv6 changes. It's odd because it runs on both my PI and Paul's PI. So I wonder what is different about your PI. Have you totally disabled IPv6? I'm a newbie with IPv6 I just set it up to use dual stack so it listens on both IPv6 and IPv4 but I wonder if it's disabled maybe it wont work.

Weird.

Hi Andrew

I'm working on Magicka now for the next 30-45 mins, just pulled down script version 5 and running it now, I can see my Rpi did have a dependency that needed updating even just 2 days after running the last update so that inclusion to the script was a good idea.

Just compiling BinkD now.

Yep something is a bit amiss with the default settings for the 1/100 HUB it looks like you have 2/100 set up instead?

I tried updating binkd.cfg and the pollfsx.sh but even that does not seem to have worked for me at this stage. I can see packets coming in and I get
errors tossing stuff in, I also wrote a message but the packet did not seem
to send, I did find a packet in ftn/packets which I think may have been the

You should in theory be able to update with ./updatebbs.sh but that hasn't been tested yet :)

Ran the updatebbs.sh script late yesterday, and this is what my terminal window shows now:

#$ ./runbbs.sh
Magicka BBS Server Starting....
- Telnet Starting on Port 2023

So the updatebbs.sh script worked here... I have been able to telnet in and poke around a bit. <grin>

Hmm, that's odd. I wonder if it's because of my IPv6 changes. It's odd becau it runs on both my PI and Paul's PI. So I wonder what is different about you PI. Have you totally disabled IPv6? I'm a newbie with IPv6 I just set it up use dual stack so it listens on both IPv6 and IPv4 but I wonder if it's disabled maybe it wont work.

I have not knowingly disabled it, just as I have not knowingly enabled it on the x86 machine. :) I wonder how would I determine if it was disabled?

Hmm, I'd say if you didn't specifically disable it it would be enabled. The problem must be somewhere else, I should really catch the errno there and print it out.

Something else that may, or may not, matter... it is a 2B and not the newer 3 series of Pi.

It shouldn't matter, mine's a 2B as well.
