Problem

Bezalel VPS (104.131.15.18) has Evennia installed, DB created, migrations applied (through 0017), superuser created (Timmy/timmy123).

Blocker: Settings file has bad port tuples causing crash:

TypeError: 'NoneType' object cannot be interpreted as an integer

From WEBSERVER_PORTS = [(4101, None)] — the None tuple value crashes Evennia's Twisted port binding.

Also: Migration 0018 was deleted due to RecursionError on fresh DB. This is fine — Evennia runs without it.

Fix (2 minutes)

SSH to Bezalel VPS and run:

cd /root/wizards/bezalel/evennia/bezalel_world/server/conf
# Delete broken port settings
sed -i '/WEBSERVER_PORTS\|TELNET_PORTS\|WEBSOCKET_PORTS\|SERVERNAME/d' settings.py
echo 'SERVERNAME = "bezalel_world"' >> settings.py

# Clean DB and start
cd /root/wizards/bezalel/evennia/bezalel_world
rm -f server/evennia.db3
/root/wizards/bezalel/evennia/venv/bin/evennia migrate
# Create superuser
/root/wizards/bezalel/evennia/venv/bin/python3 -c "
import sys,os
sys.setrecursionlimit(5000)
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE']='server.conf.settings'
os.chdir('$PWD')
import django;django.setup()
from evennia.accounts.accounts import AccountDB
AccountDB.objects.create_superuser('Timmy','timmy@tower.world','timmy123')
"
/root/wizards/bezalel/evennia/venv/bin/evennia start

Acceptance Criteria

evennia status shows Portal and Server running
Ports 4000 (telnet), 4001 (web) are listening
Can connect via telnet and see Evennia connection screen
Superuser Timmy exists and can log in
Evennia continues running after restart

Current State

✅ Python 3.12, Evennia 6.0, venv at /root/wizards/bezalel/evennia/venv
✅ DB migrations 0017 applied successfully
✅ Superuser created
❌ Settings has bad port tuples
❌ Evennia crashes on start

Priority

This blocks all Evennia federation work — Bezalel can't host a world until this is fixed.
