-Eduard- 0 Posted February 6, 2021 The server does not start, explain what is wrong. "start server.bat" start "" "DayZServer_x64" -config=serverDZ.cfg - Selects the Server Config File -port=2302 - Port to have dedicated server listen on -profiles=D:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\DayZServer – Path to the folder containing server profile. By default, server logs are written to server profile folder. Logs/dumps/etc will be created there, along with BattlEye/BEC/Rcon related files. Windows Environment variables are supported (E.g. %userprofile%). -dologs - Enables all log messages in the server RPT -adminlog - Enables the admin log -netlog - Enables the network traffic logging -freezecheck - Stops the server when frozen for more than 5 min and create a dump file -noFilePatching - Ensures that only PBOs are loaded and NO unpacked data. -BEpath=D:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\DayZServer\battleye - Sets a custom path to the Battleye files -cpuCount= - Sets the number of logical CPU cores to use for parallel tasks processing.

drgullen 597 Posted February 6, 2021 other than having .exe at the end on the Start command, looks okay to me I think. I googled the error and there's lots of possible fixes here: https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=DayZ+Server+hostname+parameter+is+missing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

me777.de 0 Posted February 9, 2021 1. there are still all comments/explenations in the .bat -> you are expected to read those, put in the values it needs and remove the comments! 2. the bat has no closing "" 3. you did not use code tags to post the files. 4. in the config you are supposed to change the server name and put an admin password as the bare minimum. but you can keep the pc licence as it is only 4 violations, 5 and more get you suspended from using anny pc for 30 days!

rcon says 0 Posted June 6, 2021 I ran into this setting up a DayZ server for the first time - fix for me was to replace -config=serverDZ.cfg with -config C:\Full\Path\To\Dayz\Install\serverDZ.cfg I figure some recent update or something changed (or broke?) the argument parsing and nobody has updated any of the docs.
