My server crashes on start up

[Demolition man 10]

When I start up my server it crashes for some reason but I hope you

can help me. The only thing I have in my target line is "-config=Server.cfg"

but even when I have nothing in the target line it still crashes.

Maybe this will help.

[Dwarden 1125]

i would say you should update to 1.18 RC1

http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=89779

also the battleye is for 1.16 !

http://www.battleye.com/download.html

[Demolition man 10]

I downloaded and installed the 1.17 beta patch because I

still wanted to keep my 1.14 patch and I launched the server and it worked.

Thanks Dwarden.

My server config is not working so can someone have a look

at it please and see if there is something wrong with it.

Replace

class Missions {EvolutionB3ul.Sara};

with

//Mission Cycle

class Missions
{
   class MP_01    // name for the mission, can be anything
   {
       template = EvolutionB3ul.Sara;
       cadetMode = 1;   // difficulty 0=veteran 1=cadet (not only AI, but radar, map etc)
   };
};

I don't know if the following would stop it from working or not...

"Wrecking the base and killing your team will get you banned."
"If you have custom sounds then please do not spam them all the time.",

you're just missing a comma after the first line, so it should be like this

"Wrecking the base and killing your team will get you banned.",
"If you have custom sounds then please do not spam them all the time.",

I just took a quick glance at it, check the BI Wiki if it still doesn't work.

Thanks for your reply but I did what you said and it still

does not work.

I fixed it by adding "-server -cfg=Basic.cfg -config=Server.cfg

-name=Demolition man's server" to the target line.
