However you play online - Java, Vassal, Email, Cyanide etc - talk about it here.
This is also the place for discussing the various tools for managing leagues, teams and so on.

Newbie issues. Can't log in to root.

Post by Skroflex »

I opted for the web hosted OBBLM install. Mine is at http://www.fyris.obblm.com/

First of all the documention is lacking, especially for a newb and someone who doesn't know anything about scripting. I'm not challenged - I just haven't had to deal with code or scripting before.

Supplied links to wiki resources result in a 404 at http://www.nicholasmr.dk/obblmwiki.
I managed to find some info on Github but it's really a brief tutorial. https://github.com/nicholasmr/obblm/wiki
It doesn't say specifically but I guess with the web hosted option OBBLM is pre-installed and I don't need to do any files on my home computer. After install it says I should log in to ROOT using the password "root".
That doesn't work.

I've been looking through the file manage trying to figure out if I could find a place to create/modify accounts but I didn't find it. The limited Github wiki doesn't cover it either. The last time someone replied to an issue there was something like six months ago, so I came here.

I suppose all I need to get started is to be able to log in to a root or admin account on my obblm site, so I can figure out the rest, but the listed password "root" doesn't let me.

Thanks, that was really easy...
"The password is your email address."

I was looking under "login details" in that email but that only covered Mercury. The obblm login is listed some lines above that.

All it takes is to miss one line of text and you're stumped for hours.

Edit:
I think I actually saw it yesterday but disregarded it after I failed to log in using email. Must have misspelled..
Still wouldn't hurt to have some good tutorial for file manager. Do you know where to find it?
