Third Party Photon Server Question

Hello,

I know this is not exactly the best place to ask, but I am really stuck with this, maybe someone here could help me setting up my Photon Server.

I am following this tutorial here: http://doc.exitgames.com/en/onpremise/current/tutorials/an-app-from-scratch

I am using Photon Server 3.4.30.9719. I am trying to deploy my own server, as described there. I have build the class library project that I called GameServer in deploy/Gameserver/bin and replaced the servers application configuration with:

<Applications Default="GameServer">

<Application
Name="GameServer"
BaseDirectory="GameServer"
Assembly="GameServer"
Type="GameServer" />​

</Applications>

I start the server from Photon Control -> Default -> Start as application. The server runs for 10 to 30 seconds and closes. I checked with the Lite application set as default and when loaded, it did not stop.

I receive the following log:

PhotonHostRuntime.PhotonDomainManager - CreateAppDomain: name = 'GameServer' , assemblyName = 'GameServer'
ApplicationBase = '...\Documents\PhotonServers\1\deploy'
PrivateBinPath = '...\Documents\PhotonServers\1\deploy\GameServer\bin;bin_Win64;Shared;'
ConfigurationFile = ''
CachePath = ''
ApplicationPath = '...\Documents\PhotonServers\1\deploy\GameServer'
BinaryPath = '...\Documents\PhotonServers\1\deploy\GameServer\bin'
ApplicationRootPath = '...\Documents\PhotonServers\1\deploy'
UnmanagedLogPath = '...\Documents\PhotonServers\1\deploy\bin_Win64\log'

Stop: ApplicationName = 'GameServer', DomainId='2' -- calling Application.TearDown()
​

I have checked and at the paths mentioned by the log, the requested resources ( dlls, etc ) are available there. Could there by anything wrong with my configuration? Why is OnStopRequested called immediately after setup? As for the server code, it is basically the application there, renamed GameServer instead of Chat server. Any suggestions are welcomed!

Thank you and I apologize for the non Unity question.

PS: I also asked on the Photon forums: http://forum.exitgames.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=6243

 

Thanks a bunch for the cross link!
I will ask my colleagues to answer there.

 

No problem. I managed to solve the problem. I was getting the stop request at setup because the server's Setup() method was throwing an exception.
