Could anyone else help with this matter? Sorry for bumping :-( / Quick question to anyone really, do I have to merge both Arma 2 And Arma 2: OA together?

S 17:58 0:00 [watchdog/0] It's starting to really bug me why this keeps happening. It still spams this in the error log as well: WATCHDOG (1214): [sat Nov 24 18:02:20 GMT 2012] Starting server (port 2302)... WATCHDOG (1214): [sat Nov 24 18:02:22 GMT 2012] Server died, waiting to restart... :/

Well I actually redid everything, this is what my start script looks like, called 'arma': ARMA_DIR=/arma-def CONFIG=server.cfg CFG=aoconfig.cfg PORT=2302 PIDFILE=${ARMA_DIR}/${PORT}.pid RUNFILE=${ARMA_DIR}/${PORT}.run LOGFILE=${ARMA_DIR}/log.${PORT}.txt SERVER=${ARMA_DIR}/server OTHERPARAMS=-cpucount=2 And now my directory structure looks like this: (All files are in the directory /arma-def/ not in /home/arma-def/) http://piclair.com/data/h8wed.jpg (141 kB) And also, this is the output from my log: WATCHDOG (4361): [sat Nov 24 15:23:51 GMT 2012] Starting server (port 2302)... WATCHDOG (4361): [sat Nov 24 15:23:51 GMT 2012] Server died, waiting to restart... And yes, I have ran ./tolower to convert existing files. Thanks.

Well it seems I sort of fixed it but now it spams this error in the log file: WATCHDOG (1645): [sat Nov 24 14:15:58 GMT 2012] Starting server (port 2302)...

Hi, I couldn't find a tutorial/helpful page which really helped with creating a dedicated server on a Linux server. I started by zipping my ArmA 2 OA contents from Windows into a ZIP file then transferring them over through SFTP to my server, then unzipping and adding to the directory /arma/server. I then downloaded the dedicated server files for Linux from the BI wiki here. Created a server.cfg file with the correct details and information, then ran the 'tolower' script to remove all capitals from files. Everything runs smoothly but it doesn't show up on the ArmA 2 OA server browser, I feel like I'm missing something blatantly obvious. Below is my directory structure and errors which may (hopefully) help. Directory Structure Server Start Error Server Check Feedback would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Works great, thanks for the help and happy 10 year anniversary soon!

Hey, yeah I couldn't attach a link scene as it was my first post. So it would look like this? hey = [this] execVM "c130cargo.sqf"; veh = [this, 240, 120, 0, TRUE, FALSE, "hey = [this] execVM "c130cargo.sqf""] execVM "vehicle.sqf" I'm really confused, sorry for so little input, I updated the main post links as well if that helps. :-)

Hi, So I have a cargo script which allows me to load vehicles onto a C130, works brilliantly. Although when the vehicle is destroyed and then respawns the script for loading vehicles no longer works, while the respawn one does. The scripts I use are: C130 Cargo Script Simple Vehicle Respawn The init for the empty C130 looks like this: veh = [this, 240, 120, 0, TRUE] execVM "vehicle.sqf"; veh = [this] execVM "c130cargo.sqf"; I can load vehicles fine when it first spawns, but when it respawns i'm not able to load vehicles again. If someone could point me in the right direction on what do that would be great. Also I was wondering if I can globally enable this on all C130's as well. Thanks!
