Install and run Apache HTTP server on the Ubuntu server. Install ArmA3Sync on the Ubuntu server and build the repository into a Apache shared directory. Here you are.

anfo 118 Posted April 14, 2017 Hi Major Shepard This is possibly a problem with the server O/S rather than Arma3Sync, but I thought we'd check anyway. Our dedicated host runs Windows Server 2008 R2. The problem is the Arma3Sync window is not able to be resized horizontally. Even if I upload a new zip version to the desktop and run the exe seperately the problem is the same. The normal game launch version is running from My Documents because that is all we have access to. I cannot reproduce the issue elsewhere so it is a very isolated issue and again, perhaps a problem with the server rather than Arma3Sync. Perhaps there is a workaround in the application? edit: I am now wondering if there might be a problem with Java on the server. Thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Could you try running arma3sync-debug.exe and paste the console content here. If you use arma3sync only for building the repositorty on the server you can run arma3sync-console.bat instead.

zgmrvn 95 Posted April 14, 2017 Hey ! Could you provide a download link for the 1.6.9 please ? Since i've installed 1.6.91, A3S doesn't work properly for me. when running A3S I had a white window, I first manually reinstalled it, I had to delete configuration files. A3S were running correclty for few minutes and while i was reconfiguring, the buttons stopped to work, i restarted the program and this white window retuned. I'm running Windows 10 and the latest JRE. here is the output of arma3sync-debug.exe if it can help Spoiler ArmA3Sync Installed version = 1.6.91 JRE installed version = 1.8.0_121 DevMode = false RunMode = false SafeMode = false Loading proxy configuration...

zgmrvn 95 Posted April 14, 2017 seems like it fixed the modset part, but i had the issue when trying to add a mods folder path... looks like there is no pattern...

PapaReap 5 Posted April 19, 2017 @major_shepard, First off, I want to tip my hat to you for your continued devotion to this project, your excellent work and the help you provide to the community, this is wonderful. My group and I have been using a3s for about as long as it has been around. After I first set it up on our rented server, the only maintenance I've had is just build/sync for the past years, kudos to you It's been a while since I've actually looked back to this forum topic, I decided to start from post 1 and read through the 85 pages now and catch up (I've forgotten how much a3s has evolved). My interest was the possibility of hosting the repo files to a cloud drive, such as Google Drive. I'm playing with the idea of dropping my rented server and going to a local dedicated rig for hosting game play at my house (separate from my gaming rig, but on same network). I would then setup the ftp server on this machine. The only issue I would have by doing this would be, my internet speed to upload sync'd repo to our members (mod set upwards 40gb) would be sub-par and not really a option I would take. This leads me to this question, The only real suggestion that I could find concerning google drive is here. On 3/19/2017 at 4:47 PM, major_shepard said: Currently you can use ArmA3Sync with Google Drive witch use HTTP hosting along with partial file transfer support (for ArmA3Sync zsync/http protocol). I you want to add the access of any P2P remote service into ArmA3Sync, feel free to do it, here are the sources svn://www.sonsofexiled.fr/repository/ArmA3Sync/releases Is this a reality of using google drive to host the source of the download/sync, and if so how exactly would one accomplish this vrs the way I do it now, ftp on rented dedicated server using fileZilla (same server hosting modset)? If this is a possibility I would gladly accept any guidance on this matter, if not possible, I understand too. Once again, thank you very much for your work with a3s. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

major_shepard 82 Posted April 24, 2017 If the error occurs when it tries to create the remote directory /TEST means the FTP account is missing permission to create directory (which is different to write permission). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Artyom_ 10 Posted April 24, 2017 Account DO have the right to create or modify directories and file. The previous picture is here to ensure you that the user can create folder. Also on linux there is 3 right: read, write and execute. read let user see files and what's inside, write let the user create or modify anything, execute let the user execute file as bash script. So the ftp user I use (a3s-admin) have all permissions to right and modify folder .a3s and what's in with ftp (see below) and terminal (permissions are linked) but I get the ftp 501 error when trying to upload event with the client.
