You need to configure the server. Read the official documentation.

I get the same Error, i configured my server and forwarded the Port in my router. Still not working.

set in launch parameters -config=serverDZ.cfg

Had that, PC reboot fixed it for me.

yeah had to do the -config=serverDZ.cfg and I also had to do the -port="####" and then port forward it and then everything seemed to work but I couldn't tell since I can't play and have it running at the same time. Hopefully they make a standalone launcher for it like what I use for Ark (Ark Server Manager).

alright the server started and I see it in LAN servers window but I cannot connect on it
I also tried to connect with -connect=127.0.0.1, localhost and with my LAN address too but the game only say: Connection Lost or Waiting for host
and I don't see any error message in the server window

One way to start the server is to use a batch file and pass the config using a parameter like so:

Remember to change the path on line6 to your server path

    @echo off
    cls
    
    set version=1.0
    set wat=Dayz SA

    title %wat% Watchdog

    cd E:\Games\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\DayZServer
    
    :watchdog
    echo (%time%) %wat% started.
    start "Dayz_SA" /wait /affinity FF /high "DayZServer_x64.exe" -config=serverDZ.cfg
    echo (%time%) %wat% closed or crashed, restarting.
    goto watchdog

Hope this helps

This is a restart bat for Arma 3 reworked for Dayz just make sure you set the file paths to your Dayz server. File name restartserver_x64.bat

This is the  server monitor.  file name servermonitor.bat

goto start

Make sure these two files are in the main directory of the server.
