PaRaNoiDa1 1 Posted June 21, 2012 Hello everyone! few days ago i buyed my first arma server for my clan. the problem is that i didn't checked how to manage it first... so i have a few problems that i need your help with: 1. Config file - i have a standart config file with my server, but i want to put some more stuff into. can someone please give me a good config file, with a large amount of settings? or can someone give me a guide with all the lines, and i will chooce only the ones that i want in my server. 2. "Seasion lost" massage - after i uploaded all the modes that i want in my server, i re-edit the command line: -config=server.cfg -port=2302 -ip=213.152.170.130 -profiles=E:\game\PaRaNoiDa1\GameServers\TC60256461502124665060771\ -mod=@ACE,ACEX,ACEX_RU,@ACEX_USNavy,@ACRE,@CBA,@CBA_A2,@CBA_OA,@GLT_F16,@GLT_MissileBox,@JayArma2Lib,@mcc_sandbox,@RH_HK416,@rkt_f15,@rkt_f4,@SGW_Israel,@sthud -maxplayers=14 and when i trying to get into the server with modes - after i put the pass and gets in it's givving me this massage "Seasion lost", and gets me out from the server back to the servers list. but... when i trying to get in without the modes, than everything is working. do you know what is the problem and how can i fix this? (i thought it's about the command line or i didn't uploade the modes right.. but i am not sure). i really need your help, and thanks so much for all the ppl who will help me to run my server :confused: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tankbuster 1744 Posted June 22, 2012 Is it a linux server? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PaRaNoiDa1 1 Posted June 22, 2012 oh... idk, how can i check? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tankbuster 1744 Posted June 22, 2012 It's a fundamental question and you don't know the answer? When you bought the server presumably you sat down with your mates and thought... hmm, Windows or Linux. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jastreb 69 Posted June 22, 2012 God damn it. If you dont know if your dedi server is windows or linux how can we help you? Looking at his command line I can see its windows. And its not dedicated box its game server. Post your server.cfg arma2oa.rpt and arma2oa.cfg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PaRaNoiDa1 1 Posted June 22, 2012 about the config file - i solved the problem and edit with the right settings that i want in my server. now the only problem is about the "Seasion lost" massage. and as you told - it's a windows server... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jastreb 69 Posted June 22, 2012 about the config file - i solved the problem and edit with the right settings that i want in my server.now the only problem is about the "Seasion lost" massage. and as you told - it's a windows server... Session lost... only time when this happened to me is when my server crashed due to some reason. So as I said something is wrong with your config. You dont want sensitive info to be shown? Neither do I!. Edit remove passwords and other things you dont want everyone to see and post your configs here in code tags. Your server rpt/log too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PaRaNoiDa1 1 Posted June 23, 2012 do you see something wrong with the config file? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jastreb 69 Posted June 23, 2012 Very. Is that your server.cfg or what? You have combined here player.arma2oa.profile and server.cfg in one file. Im not sure if it should work like that so Ill post you my configs so you can see how it should be. server.cfg // // server.cfg // // comments are written with "//" in front of them. // GLOBAL SETTINGS hostname = "My server CO - something.else.here"; // The name of the server that shall be displayed in the public server list password = ""; // Password for joining, eg connecting to the server passwordAdmin = "**********"; // Password to become server admin.

Edit server name and other personal data and see if it works for you. I think your server was crashing thats why you had session lost, and thats why I asked for configs and server rpt which you havent posted yet and where all answers are probably.
