Please provide us with feedback to this topic. Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead - Linux Standalone Server 1.59 =============================================================== Copyrigt © 2010 Bohemia Interactive Studio. All rights reserved. For more information please visit http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/ArmA:_Dedicated_Server Installation instructions: ========================== 1. Following programs must have been installed on your Linux-box: tar, gcc. Optional: md5sum (for setup integrity check) 1a. On some verions of Linux (this was reported for RedHat 9 and Gentoo linux 2.4.20) the NSCD deamon must be installed to run ArmA 2 server successfully. Caching of DNS would be sufficient. 2. Copy the whole "ArmA 2 Operation Arrowhead" directory from Windows to some Linux-directory (arma2arrowhead). DON'T DO ANY DATA CONVERSIONS (even "dos2unix" translation of text files is not necessary). Example: you can use PKZIP (WinZip, PowerArchiver, etc.) on Windows and "unzip" on Linux. Don't use upper case letters in the ArmA2 directory name (/home/bob/arma2arrowhead will be good, /home/bob/ArmA2ArrowHead may cause some troubles). ArmA2 directory should contain subdirectories "Addons", "Bin", "Campaigns", etc. 3. Copy the "server-x.xx.tar.gz" (x.xx is version number) file into the arma2arrowhead directory. Unpack and install it with commands: arma2arrowhead$ tar -xjf server-x.xx.tar.bz2 arma2arrowhead$ ./install Watch the messages - they will inform you whether your installation is successful. 4. Dedicated server can be started in foreground: arma2arrowhead$ ./server Or in background: o$ nohup ./server > out.txt 2> err.txt & [1] <pid> 5. Running server can be stopped by executing: $ kill -s SIGINT <pid> Where <pid> is process-id of mother server thread (printed out in "nohup" command). 6. ArmA2 ArrowHead server has a feature: command-line parameter "-pid=<pid_file>". It causes creation of <pid_file> with PID of root ArmA2 process. If IP port specified in "-port=<nn>" parameter is busy (in usage), ArmA2 will terminate immediately and <pid_file> won't be written.. 7. The "arma2server" script is provided for automatic server start/restart/status query/etc. Please be sure to edit CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS in lines 12 to 18 ! After this is done, install (hard-link?) the script into "/etc/rc.d/init.d/arma2server" file. After that it can be managed by "chkconfig" (see info/man). previous thread about 1.57 beta linux : http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=115506 Edited March 31, 2011 by Dwarden Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

byteslam 10 Posted April 1, 2011 Now all my linux servers with question marks in server list :( Have you updated/patched as well the arma2oa files? you need to patch your local installation and then upload it. ---------- Post added at 11:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:26 AM ---------- Dowload:http://www.arma2.com/index.php?option=com_rokdownloads&view=file&Itemid=20&id=742%3Aarma-2-oa-linux-standalone-server-1-59〈=en Direct: ftp://downloads.bistudio.com/arma2.com/update/a2oa-server-1.59.79548.tar.bz2 ---------- Post added at 11:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:09 AM ---------- BI, why is it so complicated to provide a update package for Linuxservers? :confused: It is always painful to first patch the local installation and upload the files afterward via DSL lines. Can you not build a DELTA to the previous version and provide an package for Linuxservers? run a rsync in dry mode to find out the delta against the current Linux server and build a package with all files and provide this as single download...this will help us a lot to just download a single package from an ftp source to our dedicated servers.....::confused: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mibf 0 Posted April 1, 2011 Have you updated/patched as well the arma2oa files?you need to patch your local installation and then upload it. Of course, I did it. I uploaded the same files on the windows server and it's works fine (green icon). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sickboy 13 Posted April 1, 2011 Is it too hard to answer on my question? all linux servers'll have yellow status after patching 1.59?People can only answer that after 1.59 linux servers have been setup and tested, I reckon that isn't the case so much yet at this point.byteslam's got a good point - did you toLower everything after updating to the patch? I can provide you with a delta package... or a script which generates one :-) all you have to do is, to allow us to provide it for download.There were server packages back in arma-1, so I think a delta should be quite fine.Hosting can go anywhere - incl multiupload etc I suppose.

Spayker 10 Posted April 1, 2011 byteslam's got a good point - did you toLower everything after updating to the patch? Yes, all of is already done. Why do I see then on battleye server list yellow servers on linux platform with 1.59? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why do I see then on battleye server list yellow servers on linux platform with 1.59? in worst case you need to run a md5 to compare if you have a broken file in your installation on the server. Did you upload by ftp? You can also use rsync to verify. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spayker 10 Posted April 1, 2011 in worst case you need to run a md5 to compare if you have a broken file in your installation on the server. Did you upload by ftp?You can also use rsync to verify.
