ACE2 Dedicated Server setup? NEED HELP!

[Dr.Pulp 0]

there is a variable inside one of the hpp files of the ace mod. its in the userconfig directory and called something like server_config.hpp (can't remember exactly)

just look for that file and it's variables you can change.

[whisper 0]

check_all_ace_pbos = 1;

in userconfig\ACE\ACE_serverconfig.hpp

It should be already this by default

If you want other non ACE pbos to be checked, be sure that :

check_pbos = 1;

is in the ACE_serverconfig, and add the .pbos you want to be checked in the

checklist[] = {myFirstFile.pbo, mySecondFile.pbo};

variable

One more thing, what parameter are you using when you starting server?

[Dr.Pulp 0]

that is the actual server start line from the script arma2server:

${SERVER} >>${LOGFILE} 2>&1 -server -config=${CONFIG} -port=${PORT} -pid=${PIDFILE} -name=${NAME} -profile=${PROFILE} -mod=${MOD}

there you can see the parameters

[Rodman 10]

Iam using tihs command ./server -config=./server.cfg otherwise the server is not listed in game.

[Dr.Pulp 0]

you mean the linux shell command to startup the thing?

if u edited your arma2server like my example, you can use: arma2server start

[Rodman 10]

I did it all but still not working. Seems that I ll not run ACE on my server :(

[Dr.Pulp 0]

I wrote a script for easy updating the Linux server with ACE:

maybe that will help

So finaly somehow I able to login on server with ACE addons, but now the missions make in ACE mod I cant play.

[Dr.Pulp 0]

are you and the server maybe run battleye?

[Rodman 10]

heh, what is battleye? I saw something that name on my server, I thing that when I start my server, its running just "normal" version with no mods(no addons) cos when I connect to my server in arma and then choose mission for example CO@12_ACE_Op_Cerberus_1_01.Chernarus.pbo nothing happend.

Just this error:

Missing addons detected:

ace_c_weapon

ace_sys_knicklicht

ace_sys_huntir

ace_sys_ruck

acex_c_veh_atv

I was following your post, but still not working. Iam going to be crazy from that :D

Btw still I cant start it by command u said>

yomp@r29897:~/arma2$ ./arma2sever start

bash: ./arma2sever: No such file or directory

or

yomp@r29897:~/arma2$ .arma2server start

bash: .arma2server: command not found

looks like I mixed all together now :D

Look at what the error messages tell you - in the first case, it tells you that there is no file named "arma2sever". (Notice the missing "r" in "server"). :)

are you sure you installed the server correctly? normally you should have an arma2server file. if you didn't have one...there is something wrong!

(maybe you forgot to use ./install after extracting the files from the tar.

@Joshuax: no Problem! Its nice to see that it helps other people, too :)

[Rodman 10]

On my linux server what should the folders @ace, @acex and @cba contain? Isn't problem that I have in there subfolders> keys, mpmissions

userconfig, addons atc...

Doesnt need to be there just pbo's files?

And yes I run ./install and now iam able to start my server by command ./arma2server

but it doesnt have the name what I have in my server.cfg

[Dr.Pulp 0]

okay...now just use my arma2server ,,,some pages back,,,and use my update script...and everything will be in the right folder.

[Rodman 10]

No chance I can do whatever but no chance to make it work correctly :(

[Rodman 10]

Ok boys now finally the server is workin, thanks to Dr.Pulp.

So this way I want to thank you again :)

[Dr.Pulp 0]

no problem mate. I like to help and i love linux :)

[gunterlund21 10]

How do I get it so when I start my server a specific mission starts on the server and everyone just joins.

[cross 1]

Into server.cfg

class Missions
{
class Mission_01   // name for the mission, can be anything
{
template = mymission.Chernarus; // omit the .pbo suffix
difficulty = "regular";   //recruit, regular, veteran & expert
param1 =   
param2 = 
};
class Mission_02
{
template = anothermission.Chernarus; 
difficulty = "veteran";
param1 =   
param2 = 
};
};
