DESCRIPTION
This repository contains software for a web interface to display information
obtained by the 333networks MasterServer package for the support of various
legacy games. The software was written Darkelarious to soften the effects of
GameSpy (GameSpy Industries, Inc.) shutting down their masterserver service.
A masterserver is a program that maintains a list of online game servers and
presents this list to clients (gamers, players) who request the list of game
addresses. The 333networks Masterserver is a software framework that allows
gamers/players to browse online games.
More information about the masterserver and variations on the protocol by
333networks can be found online at

REQUIREMENTS
- Apache/httpd
- Postgresql, MySQL or SQLite3
- Perl 5.10 or above
- The following CPAN modules:
DBI
DBD::Pg / DBD::SQLite / DBD::mysql
IP::Country::Fast
Image::Size
TUWF (http://dev.yorhel.nl/tuwf)
INSTALL
THE MASTER SERVER IS WRITTEN ON LINUX. IF YOU WANT TO RUN THE SOFTWARE IN
MICROSOFT WINDOWS OR APPLE OSX, IT MAY NOT WORK WITHOUT MODIFICATIONS.
This repository consists of Perl modules and is run by a http deamon. First,
the MasterServer-Perl repository should be installed and configured in order
to run this web interface. The contents of this repository can be extracted
in the same root folder as MasterServer-Perl.
CONFIGURATION
The 333networks masterserver interface comes with options. These options are
found in configuration file "data/webinterface-config.pl". Comments in the
file give a brief description. Below, the configuration is discussed in
further detail.
Database login information
The masterserver interface supports different database types. This must be the
same database (and type) as you specified in your MasterServer-Perl config.
# postgresql
db_login => ['dbi:Pg:dbname=masterserver', 'user', 'password'],
# sqlite
db_login => ["dbi:SQLite:dbname=$ROOT/data/masterserver.db",'',''],
You also need to (un)comment the right database module in the
masterwebinterface.pl file to load the correct driver.
Apache settings
LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl
Vhost configuration for the Web Interface (assuming you extracted it in the
same folder as your MasterServer-Perl installation):
#
# Master Web Interface
#
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin master@yourdomain.com
ServerName master.yourdomain.com
DocumentRoot "/server/MasterServer-Perl/s"
AddHandler cgi-script .pl
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond "%{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/%{REQUEST_URI}" !-s
RewriteRule ^/ /masterwebinterface.pl
ErrorLog /server/MasterServer-Perl/log/MasterWebInterface-Error.log
CustomLog /server/MasterServer-Perl/log/MasterWebInterface-Access.log combined
<Directory "/server/MasterServer-Perl/s">
Options +FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI
AllowOverride None
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
KNOWN ISSUES
There are a few known issues that will be resolved in future versions. The
following issues are listed and do not need to be reported.
This README file does not describe all possible configuration options. There
is an initiative to write the webinterface documentation in a single document
that is focused on all options and recommended values. For now, use your best
guess.
There are no textures, map thumbnails and/or nice steals included in this
repository. All styles, textures, increasingly growing amounts of map thumbs
and game icons are located at another repository on git.333networks.com and
are available for all supported packages.
