EVE Technology Lab

Updated to 2.0.2.6

http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/eve_api-7.x-2.0-rc6.tar.gz

Nevermind, I have a buddy helping me.

Yes, but not something I would change, because without they key, your site would shut down. But, there is nothing wrong with you updating the key your self.

Okay, after hours of poking stuff to make it work i've come to a conclusion I'm missing something

I've configured drupal correctly to the point that the eve API is working fine, users can register and all that happy stuff

but in configuring the teamspeak connection i simply get a "TeamSpeak 3 Connection failed. Error: Connection timed out" 3.0.10.1 TS3 for reference

not the greatest of errors, i cant tell if the process is failing to run or the server is rejecting the connection, im not expecting someone to solve my problem - but id really like to know what is actually going wrong

I can telnet into my TS3 server on query port 30384 and run a

login XXX XXX
use port=11117 (or use sid=689)
serverinfo

yay! returns data

Identical configuration in drupal and no dice, about to hook up a jabber client to test if that works

Can i identify whether my host is preventing the PHP script from getting out to the TS host or where the connection is going wrong?

Any help would be appreciated, I've been thrown in the deep end setting this up and really enjoying the challenge

EDIT @ShadowandLight, stay away from bridging the two man, back in drupal 5 it was alright with drupalsmf, but since progress stopped on that most bridges are basically auth hacks, nothing nice, especially not trying to tie into groups and omni

Thanks omni - i actually figured it out last night after tons of bashing my face in

I am incredibly happy with the system so far its working EXACTLY as i want

gonna make my life a lot easier!

Hi, must say this installed smoothly :)

A note of improvement, recruitment

I believe it would be very interesting if you could include a "recruit" status to the website. The idea is that the recruiter would have to tell the recruitee to register on their website and import the API themselves. Thus sparing the recruiter lot's of wasted time and energy. Once this is done, the recruiter can then go on the server and look for the list of people with out any groups. Or to put it in words, people who aren't blue, red, or in the alliance. Basically neutrals :) then the recruiter would flag the account as a "recruit". Then a new page would come up with full api details, easy links to website like "jackknife" "evewho" etc... as well as a click google of the characters name.

An other thing that can be added is the feature to enable recrutement logging. Each time a recruiter speaks to the recruits he can open is file and view past conversation. Once the recruiter is done talking to the recruit, he copies and paste the full content of the chat into a designated text entry area and submits it. Once submitted the data is save for later authentication and validation. AKA if the recruit tells recruiter A that he as a DOG and then tells recruiter B in a different chat that he as a CAT but not a DOG. You then know that the recruit is lying to you.


Other advantages are that if the recruit is recruited he is already pre-registered on the website and is access will all be spreaded on the next update.

I hope this makes sense to you :)

Issue with jabber groups

The jabber integration works fine for the latest beta posted to Drupal, but it adds every new registration to all the groups in Drupal; This behavior does not happen for the Teamspeak module.

As a workaround, I have disabled the ability to view contact lists on the openfire server, except for one, and have been manually administering placing users into groups that only exist in openfire, not Drupal. This is sub-optimal. I was able to manually patch the jabber php code so that it only adds users to a default group and hardcoded that, but this is also sub-optimal.

I am going to be changing the way the module works with Openfire, I am no longer going to be syncronizeing groups and adding users to groups. I recommend using chat rooms in future.

I'm sorry, my powers of mind reading seem to be failing me, any information you can give would be good.

What additional modules do you have installed, no issues that you describe are occuring on my sites.

I updated CTools and Libraries as they kept bothering me there was a security update. Now when I got to the TS3 settings section there isn't a drop down box for a group that is excluded from API validation. As a result when I update the TS3 settings and hit save I get:

Notice: Undefined index: bypass_group in eve_api_teamspeak_admin_form_submit() (line 398 of /home/user/public_html/mjolnirbloc/modules/eve_api/eve_api_teamspeak/eve_api_teamspeak.admin.inc).

Ctools: 7.x-1.4
Librariers: Libraries 7.x-2.2

EDIT: I ended up commenting out the line to check for bypass_group in the admin.inc file. I also upgraded to the latest dev version to fix the issue with too many people and the cron not completing. (posted that on your tickets)

The latest changes can be retrieved from the DEV branch.
