Can't create Server (BattlEye Initialization failed)

[Soldat187 0]

Hey guys,

I recently ran into an odd behaviour while install a full vanilla DayZ-Server.

VPS with Windows Server 2022 Std.
I just made a complete new Server without touching any config just to check If I can start it. Command Prompt which was used to install the Server via steamcmd as well to start the Server was always with Administrative Privilages.

Firewall is completely turned off either (for testing).

If it's not possible to make it work with BattlEye, is there a way to disable it, since I just wanted to test something right now it wouldn't matter if its enabled or not.

Best Regards

Michael

Ok, I got it.
Apparently it's a known issue that you can no longer use a Steam-Account w/o owned DayZ-Game. When you D/L DayZ Server with a Steam-Account wich owns the game, Server runs like a charm.
