ski 0 Posted March 29, 2007 error 6000. Im running a fast server, win 2k3 I have read almost every article there is on the gaming forums regarding this error. I can conform my server does not run any imaging software, any popup blockers or any other security software, just Symantec AV. Why cant I start my server? same old security module error 6000 message. Ive gone out and purchased two copys of this game one for me one for my brother with hopes of having a dedicated server running... but sadly not. Ive followed the instrucions.. install from dvd, patch to 1.05, copy folder content to server, run ArmA_server.exe and the error pops up. Ive spend 6 hours on this issue now and thats my day wasted, this is my last resort, asking you guys for advice. What do I need to do? Its a amazing game but I really feel like I should take the 2 copy's back and pick something up with multiplayer support. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SlurrpyChillyFries 0 Posted March 29, 2007 have you tried running the installer on the server? that is how i setup my server, then i ran the patcher on the server too. then once you have this working, you only have to upload the maps an pbo addons to the server.

ski 0 Posted March 29, 2007 Nope I followed the official documentation regarding dedicated server setup Doing all this remotely is a PITA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ski 0 Posted March 29, 2007 "SecuROMâ„¢ has determined that a piece of software is hooking SecuROMâ„¢" Whats the work around? Use a crack and return the game to the game shop? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hoz 0 Posted March 29, 2007 You need to be using the dedicated server exe which has no copy protection. Quote[/b] ]Whats the work around? Use a crack and return the game to the game shop? I don't think thats the solution, and continued discussion about crack & piracy will get you pr'd/banned pretty quickly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ski 0 Posted March 29, 2007 I am using the server.exe as mentioned in original post but the Securerom error still pops up. the exe came with the patch, ive also re-downloaded just the server exe but same result. Has anyone here come across such an issue? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hoz 0 Posted March 29, 2007 I have not seen such an issue, you could try removing the arma.exe Are you sure your running the arma_server.exe? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ski 0 Posted March 29, 2007 yup defo running the server exe. I dont get the checkboxes as I do if i run arma.exe but get the secure rom error instead Im just in the process of doing as SlurrpyChillyFries suggested and install the actual game on the server. Wish me luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ski 0 Posted March 30, 2007 same old problemo ahh well, 1 less server in the community Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
W0lle 1051 Posted March 30, 2007 You don't run any Sysinternals Tools on the server by chance? Things like: ProcessExplorer, AutoRuns or TCPView If you do then make sure these Tools (esp. ProcessExplorer) are not running before you try to start ArmA or the Server. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ski 0 Posted March 31, 2007 Nope none of that. Going to revert back to win2k see if that runs it any better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
