Technical Support / Re: Unity/WebGL Support?

Sorry for the late reply, out of town.

You should be able to add that to your own .htaccess file. Just create it in the root of your public_html directory, and it'll be automatically read by the webserver. You can configure a large amount of stuff there, including (as far as I know) mime types. If you have trouble, let me know, and give me a URL/file to check against.

Technical Support / Unity/WebGL Support?

Last post by kschnee - September 17, 2016, 11:41:18 PM

I'd like to host projects done with the Unity game engine, but the Web player that engine is now using relies on some very specific HTML5 stuff rather than its old plugin. (Because browsers are phasing plugins out.) To make this system work it looks like I need to take the following advice about the server:

> I have fixed this issue by opening my /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf apache configuration file, and going to the mime_module section. I replaced
>
> AddType application/x-gzip .gz .tgz
>
> with
>
> AddType application/x-gzip .gz .tgz .memgz .jsgz .datagz
>
> and now my browser is automatically decompressing the files when it gets them.

(Details are at http://answers.unity3d.com/questions/1235665/webgl-unusable-unknown-compression-method-when-loa.html if interested.)

I don't think I can do this on my end, since it looks like server configuration for the server itself and not for my corner of it. Would you be willing to make this change, please?

Did you just add the aliases (custom emails) and it still didn't work, or were they there a long time? I didn't see them in the actual config, but I saw them in the DB. If they were old, it's possible they were lost during the migration to the new email system a few months ago. If they're new... then maybe the web script isn't working right to set them. I triggered the "change email" action manually for your account, and it appears they're in place now. Please try again and see if it works.

My apologies, but the rate-policy daemon stopped running for some reason. I was out of town all weekend for a convention, or I would've gotten to this sooner. I've corrected the problem, and it's up again, so email should work as expected. Please let me know if you have any more problems.

Technical Support / Can't send email

Last post by Bitstream - May 13, 2016, 06:30:12 PM

It's been a little while since I last tried to send an email, so I'm not sure how long it's been like this, but when I attempt to send anything today, I get the following error:

SMTP Error: [451] 4.3.5 <DATA>: Data command rejected: Server configuration problem

And of course the email is not sent.

I have not noticed any issues receiving mail.

Announcements / Major Email Changes

Last post by Xepher - March 11, 2016, 05:36:52 AM

So, spam hit again, and I'm moving to a new mail server. As such, it required a lot of work to reconfigure from the old system. I think I've got most things back to working, but if you have trouble with email here, please let me know. The most likely remaining problems are related to people with custom email domains hosted here.

If you're using your own email client, you need to use SMTP authentication with STARTTLS on port 587 (the "submission" port) to send mail now.

Also note, as email is what's being weird, please feel free to post here on the forums if you're having problems.

EDIT: Your ~/.esmtprc file should look something like this now:

identity = user@xepher.net
        hostname = mail.xepher.net:587
        username = "user"
        password = "mypass"
        starttls = enabled
