Hello,
I'm trying now for around 10 days to get an arma2 co server running again.
It worked fine before the 1.62 patch.
But now, after updating I ran into some problems and I'm beeing now stuck with one where I really don't know how to fix this.
cat /proc/version
(btw those filenames are on purpose^^)
bazzic.cfg
server_config_2oct2012.cfg
startup script @ /etc/init.d/
I first had the startup error with "/usr/lib32/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.15' not found"
After hours of google search I ended up with downloading a latest debian package and replaced the outdated file.
Since I'm using a lot of mods (see start script :D) I had then problems with the max open file limits [cannot open file *.pbo]
(ulimit -n, ulimit -Hn and ulimit -Sn or simply ulimit -a)
displayed 1024 which is obviously too low
I really did everything to increase it, manually with ulimit -n 8000, in sysctl with fs.file-max, in /etc/security/limits.conf and in /etc/security
It never worked in the startup script which is located at /etc/init.d - The last try to get it working was enabling the limits.so in /etc/pam.d in common-session. (no success)
the only way to fix it was manually set it with each startup to the new value "ulimit -Hn 8000 ulimit -Sn 8000" but apperently this only works for root. - So for testing (I just want at first the server working) I moved on with the root instead of my own arma 2 user.
So now I'm at the point where I don't know how to move on.
The server should work fine, I can see it but whenever I try to join I just get "Waiting for host" - Thats it.
The server goes then down, without any log or help. - The startup command "status" say btw that the sever process is still running but I can't find it then in the server browser or with sixupater. Joining is then still impossible.
server.log.2302
currently I also get this sometimes but it just came yesterday
Warning Message: No challenge value was received from the master server.
GameSpy QR2 error: 5, No challenge value was received from the master server.
Is this a gamespy fault?
Thanks for any help
