setting up a dedicated server.

[b00tsy 27]

I have trouble with setting up a dedicated server, hope someone can help.

I have read the wiki page and installed the armaoaserver.exe and created a server .cfg file and added to the armao.exe "-server".

When I run arma oa now i get a pop up dialog that a server has been created, but when I run Arma I do not see the server listed anywhere and there is not a firewall problem as far as I can see. Unfortunately the wiki does not explain it all in great detail, just a quick set up instruction.

Can anyone give me some hints to get it working?

I have setup ArmaOA beta to be used as the server. and the cfg file and the server.exe are both in the beta map where the beta.exe is.

Edit: nevermind for now. I see that I am missing some files!

Ok 1 hour later and still not getting it to work. I keep getting the error: No entry' ProfilePathDefault.

In the server.exe parameter I did add the profiles location, everything else is in the main arma map.

"C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\Expansion\beta\arma2oaserver.exe" -cfg=basic.cfg -config=server.cfg -name=server -profiles=C:\Users\username\Documents\ArmA 2 Other Profiles

Ive setup the basic.cfg, server.cfg and the server.ArmA2OAProfile.cfg and placed them in the main arma OA beta map where the server.exe is too.

Help! :)
