haretuerk 0 Posted January 17, 2018 Gentlemen, is there anybody out there running an Operation Flashpoint/Arma:CWA linux server (1.96 oder 1.99) on an up-to-date linux system like Ubuntu 17 or CentOS 7? Because I would like to, but can't manage it ... Thanks for help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Przemek_kondor 13 Posted January 18, 2018 Do you have problem with running the server (for this you might need native executable http://store.steampowered.com/app/594550/Arma_Cold_War_Assault_MacLinux/, I guess) or configuring it (https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Linux_Server the instruction are for outdated 1.96 version)?

haretuerk 0 Posted January 19, 2018 Thanks for the reply. I do have all files you can imagine: OFP 1.96 original, Arma:CWA (Steam, both, win and linux), linuxserver1.96.shar (server binaries) etc. Some years ago I was able to manage installing and running OFP servers but on older linux machines. Now I always receive following error message: WATCHDOG (15151): [Mi 17. Jan 22:04:44 CET 2018] Starting server (port 2302)... 22:04:45 Dedicated server created, memory used: 4112 KB Server creation failed : 2302 Hours of googling this error message could not help me. Suggestions about a misconfigured firewall must be wrong, because there is no firewall running... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_xetex_ 43 Posted January 20, 2018 Hostname of your Linux machine must be - lower case, not have "_","-" , numbers and other characherts. Good example: linuxmaschine, haretuerk or e.t.c. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wimmetje 0 Posted August 29, 2018 I do have all the right files for running a dedicated server under a new Linux system. I tried it 2 years ago and it worked with Ubuntu 16, I gonna look up the files tonight and try to run it under Ubuntu 18. If it works I will post the files Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
