yxman 90 Posted February 3, 2014 Hi ! First of all thanks for this awsome tool Here is my problem, i' m on a dedicated server with ubuntu 13.10 32 bit and using wine to run arma3server and TADST. When i push the launch button the arma3server go online but every time me or one of my friend try to join the server we are kicked within a few seconds. I ve tried it from my personnal computer wich is on windows Os and it worked fine, we were not kicked. Does someone know how to fix this ??? A big thanks to the community, excuse my english i m from france ! use the native linux server binary... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hlfritz 1 Posted February 4, 2014 yes, you do not use wine to run the Linux server. you might run the windows server with wine, but not the Linux server. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daisai 10 Posted February 8, 2014 Does anyone know how you can configure your server in ubuntu ? I have got the server running now and have put all the info needed from this tutorial http://erictgrubaugh.com/play/games/arma/installation-and-configuration-of-an-arma-3-linux-dedicated-server/ in the server.cfg file however when i launch the arma3server from the install it still gets the default settings. Do i have to use the start.sh to launch the server? because that one doesn't launch the server. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hlfritz 1 Posted February 12, 2014 probably need a command line switch to tell it the config file to use. -config <path-to-config-file> i.e. -config server.cfg (if it is in same directory as server binary) check all the options: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Dedicated_Server Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cardelga 10 Posted February 13, 2014 My server now only be found in remote address.I am the only one? Your server is not the one than must be searched by remote, only one of our servers appear, the others must be searched by IP and PORT (|R|Karl) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lukrop 10 Posted February 16, 2014 Does anyone know how you can configure your server in ubuntu ?I have got the server running now and have put all the info needed from this tutorial http://erictgrubaugh.com/play/games/arma/installation-and-configuration-of-an-arma-3-linux-dedicated-server/ in the server.cfg file however when i launch the arma3server from the install it still gets the default settings. Do i have to use the start.sh to launch the server? because that one doesn't launch the server. I quickly made a script for starting the server, which also creates a log file with the server output. #!/bin/bash # by lukrop # niceness (priority) of the server use 0, -10 or -15 if you have problems starting the server # this depends on how much rights your user has on the system see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nice_%28Unix%29 NICENESS=-19 # name of the server config file CONFIG=server.cfg # count of CPU cores this machine has CPUCOUNT=4 # maximum memory to use between 256 and 2047 MAXMEM=2047 # relative path to the directory containing your mods MDIR=mods # mods you'd like to load MODS="$MDIR/@modA;\ $MDIR/@modB;\ $MDIR/@modC;\ $MDIR/@modD;" DATE=`date +%d%m%Y-%H%M` # log the command line parameters echo "nice -n $NICENCESS ./arma3server -cpucount=$CPUCOUNT -maxmem=$MAXMEM -config=$CONFIG -mod=$MODS\n" > log-$DATE.rpt nice -n $NICENESS ./arma3server -cpucount=$CPUCOUNT -maxmem=$MAXMEM -config=$CONFIG -mod=$MODS 2> >(tee -a log-$DATE.rpt >&2) Create a file in the root directory of the dedicated server with the above content. Call it startserver.sh for example and change it's permissions to be executable: chmod +x startserver.sh You might want to start the whole thing inside a screen session: screen ./startserver Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grubes 10 Posted February 16, 2014 That looks very similar to our start script.

Sp0nk 10 Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) I'm having some wierd problems regarding signed keys ACRE and CBA_A3 (Cannot connect to the server, error beeing keys not matching). Can someone help me in private with this? If so, please send me a PM or ask me here for more information :) I've tried multiple sources of ACRE and CBA, and made sure I use the correct bikeys and bisigns keys, but the server does not hesitate to kick me. Edit: I've now tried to launch and connect with only CBA, CBA and Alive and CBA, Alive and JayArma3/2lib and those work perfectly, however as soon as i add Acre I get kicked because of bad keys.

HitmanFF 6 Posted March 6, 2014 After updating to v1.12, the performance issue is still present. 5-6 fps for the server on a map that will yield 50 fps on the windows server via wine.
