Lidgren built with mono fails on Linux about lidgren-network-gen3 HOT 9 CLOSED

bump

We could really use a solution for this.

Which Platform*.cs are you compiling with?

Hey Lidgren,

Thanks for your response!

Since we're developing in Unity5, and deploying on a Linux server, I'm assuming that the PlatformConstrained is used - although I'm not actually sure?

However, as I mentioned in the OP, my assumption is that it is indeed using this PlatformConstrained which seeks to call Linux-specific methods - but Mono does not support this (as it is likely expecting Windows-based methods). However, I'm not sure of this either, it's just my guess.

[EDIT] Actually, the built that failed was not made with Unity5. It was built with MonoDevelop and was actually not based on Unity at all (it was meant to be a 'LobbyServer').

Verify which platform you're using to compile. If you're using PlatformConstrainted it's failing on "return IPAddress.Broadcast"... try replacing with "return IPAddress.Parse("255.255.255.255");" instead.

Hi Lidgren,

I'm sorry for my confusion earlier. We are compiling with 'PlatformWin32.cs' with Mono and attempting to run a built executable (.exe) file on a Linux Ubuntu server (no Unity involved) - of course using mono on the server as well to execute the file. We know this worked earlier (prior to the last month's commits).

Therefore, even though I tried your suggestion, it had no effect.

I found it easier to build with VS for 3.5 and bring that into my mono environment.

Compiling with __CONSTRAINED__ fixes this error on mono for me.

I am getting the same Error on both OS X and Linux (Centos7) using xbuild /tv:4.0 MasterServerSample.sln
@Cyral : i don't understand your fix using "CONSTRAINED". Can you explain further? Thanks everyone!

Same here, compiling with __CONSTRAINED__ fixed the issue

@Nrezinorn

Right click on your project -> Option -> Compiler

And add __CONSTRAINED__ in Define Symbols
