kalervo 10 Posted May 8, 2010 How can I run beta patch on linux dedicated server? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SnowSky 12 Posted May 8, 2010 It's a good question - i was asking this to myself - now cause you mention it, maybe I got an Idea. but first of all - i haven't seen any other Linux server with the beta version till yet, but you can play beta version as client also on regular server version. Now my Idea: If you want to use the Linux server, you have to unpack the tar into your arma2game folder, and run ./install and so on. Maybe this works also for the beta - means - unpacking the tar into the arma2/beta folder and running the ./install also there? Well I haven't looked this much into the toLower.c - but there you should see what the execution of the ./install will do exactly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
=wfl= sgt bilko 10 Posted May 8, 2010 What tar file? They relased a beta 70184 server tar file? Link? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SnowSky 12 Posted May 9, 2010 What tar file? They relased a beta 70184 server tar file? Link? No, they did not. I mean the Linux Dedi Server version 1.05.62021 ( http://www.arma2.com/supply/all-downloads/file/226-arma2server-1-05-62021-tar.html?lang=en ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karvanoppa 10 Posted May 9, 2010 I tested this. Not working arma2/@beta/ tar xfz arma2server-1-05-62021-tar.gz ./install ./server Then i test my start script to tryit start up in arma2 folder Not working ./@beta/server -profile... -mod... -name.... etc... Then i make new copy of arma2 and move from @beta folders stuff to right place in arma2 and then start game from arma2beta/ folder. Not working Damn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deadfast 43 Posted May 9, 2010 You can't. The most you can try is to run the beta server exe under wine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Karvanoppa 10 Posted May 10, 2010 (edited) Ok thanks for answers. All others works nicely with original 1.05.62021, but Warfare just crashing and crashing after some hours. :( Developers get out that 1.05 beta version for linux please. We don't have many good server in Finland.

We don't have many good server in Finland. Interesting, my Server hadn't any problems. The only Problem I have is when I run the ACE Warfare Mission, my client crashs totally (I mean hardcore restart). But that was maybe due to the ArmA Beta, or the ACE Beta, or the mission itself - who knows (It's my fault if I always use the Betas^^) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tankbuster 1733 Posted June 5, 2010 Now my Idea: If you want to use the Linux server, you have to unpack the tar into your arma2game folder, and run ./install and so on.

But what if we have a commercially hosted linux box with limited access? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
