TFS 1.1 crashes as soon as I start it

[mike800]

I downloaded TFS 1.1 from https://github.com/otland/forgottenserver/releases/tag/v1.1 however when I try to start the .exe it shows me the cmd and then instanly disappears. I can't see any errors because it's gone so quick.
I'm pretty terrible when it comes to this so any help would be greatly appreciated!
I use windows

Edit: SOLVED
If you also have this issue, try opening your forgottenserver.exe through cmd, that's what worked for me.

Once you try to start it up, does that window say "Press any key to continue?"

 

[mike800]

I can't read what it says, it appears for a very short moment. Sometimes not at all.

 

[XxDeathAvenger]

Do you have a Uniserver? There could be a lot of reasons, without the error window, it's not easy to tell. Maybe try screenshotting it, or taking a video

your windows is 64 bits?

You can make a batch file so you can force to create a log file instead of showing the text on the console window.

Sorry, I went to sleep last night, just got back from work.
@XxDeathAvenger Yeah I use uniserver, tried with xampp too but the same thing happens. I could even not have either of them active and it still happens. Tried screenshotting, but it's impossible to catch it, I think the same will happen with video
@silveralol I use 32 bits
@Colors How do I go about doing that?

In most cases you can keep retrying until you get a screenshot of the very last output; it takes patience and skill.
Alternately, you can just tell us the last thing in the console you see before it crashes.

Yes, it's not the most technical way to diagnose it, but it's a start; it's a dependable start.

this is the best i can capture, even if I see the black box inside and capture the image, it doesn't show up, tried several times. I can't figure out what it says, most of the time its just this.

@Colors How do I go about doing that?

@echo off
cls
theforgottenserver.exe > log.txt
:start
cls

 

[mike800]

@echo off
cls
theforgottenserver.exe > log.txt
:start
cls

Where do I put this?

 

[samco]

Create a new empty file and save as .bat

Where do I put this?

 

[mike800]

Done, but it doesn't do anything, or I'm not doing it right. I started tfs.exe but it does the same
thing
edit: woops im stupid, hold on
edit 2:

this is where it closes, I suppose I should start uniserver now?

You have to open the bat file, not the exe.

 

[mike800]

You have to open the bat file, not the exe.

I have, the picture above appears when I open the .bat, but it also closes itself quickly after

Can't connect to your database. I suggest reading/watching https://otland.net/threads/video-tu...ing-ot-server-website-and-shop-system.166818/ by @Znote

I have, and I've done exactly as he did. I did it before with tfs 0.36 and it worked fine, but it's not working now for some reason

 

[Call Me Taffy]

You on 1.1? Cause I had the same problem and can't exactly remember what I did, but I know it wasn't nothing too hard lol. I swear it's something to do with importing db / PHP, but I will check and see if I can find out.

 

[mike800]

I managed to not make the cmd instanly close by opening tfs.exe through cmd. update soon
update:

so why does it deny access?
edit again: apparently i used the wrong password, i can get it to start now

 

[mike800]

Alright, so this is what I'm getting now. Atleast the server is online though.

I suppose I'll watch znote's video again, because I feel I should setup the database again, I'm using the one I used for tfs 0.36
