Tutorial Reversi errors

[frankdimat]

Hi to all,
i start to follow the tutorial, but is very hard in the first steps...
I upload the gameinfo.inc changed (only after one hour, i found i must impose to reload it with a button in the game page... )
Ok... I insert the board style in the .css file, then the div id=board code in the .tpl file (TPL??? what means TPL??? why not html???).
I upload them, ok but when i start with the "start express" button a large number of error messages appears:
Errors are in the "reversi.game.php" file... but, sorry, who had change it? Sure NOT ME!
Tutorial says about a "blank" game: if is "blank", don't read the .php file... So, the errors are:
"Unexpected error: Wrong formatted data from gameserver 1 (method: createGame): JSON_ERROR_SYNTAX
Notice: Undefined index: player_colors in /var/tournoi/release/games/frankdimattutorial/999999-9999/frankdimattutorial.game.php on line 64

Thanks for reading and for appreciate suggests

Hi,
i added (1,2) in the array players (I canceled the 2) but now errors are in the "init the board" function. I tryed to comment all this function in <mygame>.game.php.
Now the "red errors" disappears, but once again the game don't starts and the board don't load...
Now it seems that the error is in DB files:
"Sorry, an unexpected error has occurred...

Error while processing SQL request (Localhost via UNIX socket): SELECT board_x x, board_y y, board_player player FROM board WHERE board_player IS NOT NULL Table 'ebd_frankdimattutorial_448303.board' doesn't exist (reference: GS1 19/01 09:18:28)"

Why is so hard to see only the board in the game page?

I'm having issues here as well. Though, I don't think they're the same issues.

I'm at this part, and I've followed it character for character, and yet it is not working I wonder, has anyone else had this issue?

<div id="board">
</div>

edit your reversi.css file to transform it into a visible board:

#board {
width: 536px;
height: 528px;
background-image: url('img/board.jpg');
}

What is your issue? What happens or what doesn't?

"It is not working" doesn’t help a lot to be able to help you

Did you upload your modified files? Did you reload the page?

Eek. You're right. That was super not descriptive. I have uploaded the files and the board isn't showing up. I was originally able to update the tpl file, but then the board div isn't working. Yes, files were uploaded and I refreshed the page a bunch of times.

To be quite honest, I'm feeling pretty not smart for failing with a div, some style, and a jpg file.

Have you cleared the browser cache before reloading? (The keyboard shortcut is Ctr/Cmd+F5 on most operating systems/browsers.) This is a common problem for those new to web development and/or the BGA framework, especially as BGA handles the CSS and JS files differently in this respect - but you always need to clear the cache when updating CSS.

Did you download the board.jpg file and did you upload it in the img/ directory?

Interesting. I'll keep this in mind. Back end is where most of my experience is, but I'm not a stranger to web dev either. I've cleared cache and no luck.

Of note:

• I can update the `edit this HTML in your ".tpl" file.` line and see the update

• If I move my div above that line, the line moves to the bottom of the play area. So, the size of the div is recognized

I definitely have the file.

Worth noting:

• clearing chache doesn't help

• I can update the `edit this HTML in your ".tpl" file.` line and see the update

• If I move my div above that line, the line moves to the bottom of the play area. So, the size of the div is recognized

Code: Select all

Code: Select all

div {

}

#board {

    height: 528px;
    background-image: url('img/board.jpg');
}

Code: Select all

➜  bga git:(main) ✗ cd img                            
➜  img git:(main) ✗ ls

How exactly are you clearing cache ? You tried ctrl + maj + r ? (On firefox at least)
