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 1.62.xxxxx linux server : http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?141665-ARMA-2-Operation-Arrowhead-Linux-Server-beta-1-62-98099 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Overlord 0 Posted November 9, 2012 Just played a few missions on the new release, running smooth. There is (still) an issue with the medic module; as medic I got injured, given first aid by a team-mate, but wasn't able to fully heal myself before at the end of the mission. Probably not related to this release but ... Thank you all guys and gals at BIS for keeping Nix up to date. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
