Server Tool Sigma | Alpha 1.52.3 | HOTFIX 157 | RELEASED

[Pheenix89 12]

i also noticed that if i change

profile=cfgdayz

to something else i.e

profile=\cfgdayz\users\cfgdayz

I will get an battleye initialization failed when i try to start the server.. what does the profile have to do with battleye? :/

[ryahn 112]

It sounds like that yes. I will have to look into it.

Also updated the tool to include cpu priority v1.33

Also could you submit that to the issue tracker? http://code.google.c...gma/issues/list

i also noticed that if i change

profile=cfgdayz

to something else i.e

profile=\cfgdayz\users\cfgdayz

I will get an battleye initialization failed when i try to start the server.. what does the profile have to do with battleye? :/

You need to remove the forward slash from \cfgdayz\users\cfgdayz. So it should look like cfgdayz\users\cfgdayz

The system is setup to CD to the directory that your arma 2 oa is installed in.

I tried with and without slash different folders, it still doesnt read my profile. i even copied the profile to all folders: cfgdayz, cfgdayz\Users, cfgdayz\users\cfgdayz, arma 2 operation arrowhead

Edited August 8, 2012 by Pheenix89

[ryahn 112]

The profile is usually set to cfgdayz. This will set the folders inside as follows Users\cfgdayz. There should be no need to set it any further than cfgdayz. If you want to change the name of where it saves, you just need to change -name=SE6 or whatever

[Pheenix89 12]

Still, what does the profile have to do with BE? i mean we already specified that folder in

#Locations
beroot2=SET beroot="Z:\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\cfgdayz\BattlEye"

its like its looking for \BattlEye folder in profile= and not for a .ArmA2OAProfile file

[ryahn 112]

beroot2=SET beroot="Z:\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\cfgdayz\BattlEye"

This is for log rotations. Your profile is set for when the server runs.

%beroot2%

set firstline=New Line %dtStamp%

mkdir %beroot%\OldLogs\%dtStamp%\

copy %beroot%\scripts.log %beroot%\OldLogs\%dtStamp%\scripts.log

del /Q /F %beroot%\scripts.log

echo %firstline% > %beroot%\scripts.log

The profile is set here

start %priority% Expansion\beta\arma2oaserver.exe -beta=Expansion\beta;Expansion\beta\Expansion -mod=Expansion\beta;Expansion\beta\expansion;ca;@dayz;@hive %ipserv% %port% %name% %config% %cfg% %profile% %world% %cpu% %threads% %pid% %nocb% %maxmem% %nosound%

[Pheenix89 12]

My normal server start .bat file looks like this:

/High Expansion\beta\arma2oaserver.exe -mod=EXPANSION\beta;EXPANSION\beta\Expansion;EXPANSION;ca;@dayz;@hive -ip=***.***.224.154 -port=2302 -profiles=cfgdayz -config=cfgdayz\server.cfg -cfg=cfgdayz\arma2.cfg -name=SE56 -world=Chernarus -cpuCount=4 -exThreads=1 -noSound -maxMem=2047 -noCB

if i start with that my difficulty will be veteran as specified in server.cfg

and in your config:

# Dayz Configurations
name=-name=SE56
config=-config=cfgdayz\server.cfg
cfg=-cfg=cfgdayz\arma2.cfg
profile=-profiles=cfgdayz
ipserv=-ip=***.***.224.154
port=-port=2302
world=-world=Chernarus
cpu=-cpuCount=4
threads=-exThreads=1
#What ever is set here, Must be set at pidfile
pid=-pid=Z:\tools\pid\pid.txt
nocb=-noCB
maxmem=-maxMem=2047
nosound=-noSound
#Priority for server|Can be set with - Realtime, High, AboveNormal, Normal, BelowNormal, Low
priority=/High

Which should be exactly the same;

My server shows as difficulty: recruit

Edited August 8, 2012 by Pheenix89

[ryahn 112]

Its weird. Its running fine on both of my servers. I have my server.cfg set to regular and it reflects it in game.

Is your server using the new or old difficulty file?

[Pheenix89 12]

Im not sure, would you mind posting the contents of a new difficulty file?

[Pheenix89 12]

Ok i dont know how or why it happend and or what it did, my server had created like 5x folders With users: BattlEye, SE56 and cfgdayz so i had the same files in 5 different locations dunno if it messed up a CD somewhere but in the last 4 folders the ArmA2OAProfile files were empty. I removed all the folders that shouldnt be there, its really Confusing

It created user folders in:

Z:\cfgdayz\users\cfgdayz\users\

arma2oa\cfgdayz\users\cfgdayz\users\cfgdayz\users\cfgdays

arma2oa\cfgdays\users\SE56\users\SE56\users

i think the Z:\ folder was created when i changed it to cfgdays\users in your config if i look at the time the folder was last changed~

still cant get it to work with ur tool

[Pheenix89 12]

Ok dude, im really sorry for an iinconvenience i may have caused, i realized it says recruit until someone has joined the server, so everytime i started with your tool there wasnt anyone in lobby yet. Everytime i started with .bat file there was always at least one there before i got to check. I feel really stupid. (o_o)

Edit: FYI Im using your tool now and its running flawless.

Good to hear

[tyler@tytanis.com 28]

Release the source code.

https://www.virustotal.com/file/69040e8de88c312b56b4d51ebfe8c3ef5c3d3da94f6068e47bda7dbdd84cb563/analysis/1344462866/

[ryahn 112]

I am not releasing the source code. The only reason why it would be picked up as a possible virus is because it uses the taskkill and start commands in batch.

[ryahn 112]

Currently working on make the crash part of the script more versatile in detecting on when the server crashes.

[Pheenix89 12]

Still running flawless for me, it has restarted my server 2 times since yesterday, just as it is scheduled to do.

Where i can find the Pid?? And where i find the line where i can configure the Auto restart?? :D

regards

[ryahn 112]

Where it shows

pid=-pid=C:\tools\pid\pid.tx

You will need to make sure you have the folders setup to that location. Do not make the text file as this is created by the server when its running.

To configure it to auto restart, you will use BEC. You will need to setup the scheduler.xml

Here is part of mine

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Scheduler>

<!--

<!-- Show text ingame after 10 min with loop enabled -->
<job id="1">

The job id="#" must be in order. Mine isnt as shown, as I am just showing examples of it.

My DayZ Server doesnt crate an PiD o.O

[pepperkorn@gmail.com 94]

you can tell it to in the server.cfg i believe

[ryahn 112]

You need to make sure the pid=-pid=C:\tools\pid path is created. If neither of the folders are made, it wont work.

Not in the cfg. Its in the start up parameters. Like -ip, -port etc

I am currently building an installer to install the files and create the folders

Hmmm.. i dont know, Bec closes after launch.. I schould Start the Server before or after?? :D

Your IP should be the IP of which everyone connects to. Also with -1 being enabled on the chats, it means to disable them.
