Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead - Linux Standalone Server 1.60 =============================================================== Copyrigt © 2010 Bohemia Interactive Studio. All rights reserved. For more information please visit http//community.bistudio.com/wiki/ArmA:_Dedicated_Server"]http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/ArmA:_Dedicated_Server[/size[/url]] 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 1.60.89362 beta linux : http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?131190-ARMA-2-Operation-Arrowhead-Linux-Server-beta-1-60-89362 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
