Server startoptions using a different port

[imbalimba420]

Hello everyone,

 

is there a way to use a port from the startup script?

As an example, this is my startscript right now:

 

./startserver.sh -configfile=serverconfig.xml

 

startserver.sh looks like this:

./7DaysToDieServer.x86_64 -logfile $SERVERDIR/7DaysToDieServer_Data/output_log__`date +%Y-%m-%d__%H-%M-%S`.txt -quit -batchmode -nographics -dedicated $PARAMS

 

Is there a way to add a port, so it does not use the one in the config file? Like this?

 

./7DaysToDieServer.x86_64 -serverport 55480 -logfile $SERVERDIR/7DaysToDieServer_Data/output_log__`date +%Y-%m-%d__%H-%M-%S`.txt -quit -batchmode -nographics -dedicated $PARAMS

 

I've tried that one allready, but its still using the default port.

Can someone tell me, if there is a way, how to use a different port from the startscript directly?

 

 

Regards

Make two or more copies of your serverconfig.xml with different port numbers (and add the port number to the name of the config file).

Select serverconfig55480.xml on the command line or in your startscript to get port 55480

 

You might also try "./7DaysToDieServer.x86_64 -help", maybe it lists acceptable parameters.

I'm using the first method.

But the server does not want to start correctly.

That's an issue. The server can't access the saves folder. You can change permissions on that folder, or, I generally

put the saves folder in the same directory as the game to insure that it can be accessed. And 'cause it's easier to find.

 

The absolute path is set in the serverconfig file, here:

 

<!-- <property name="UserDataFolder" value="absolute path" /> --> <!-- Use this to override where the server stores all generated data, including RWG generated worlds. Do not forget to uncomment the entry! -->

 

So, in your case, if you were to create a folder named "333" for saves and user data the line would be:

 

<property name="UserDataFolder" value="/home/KD10004/gameserver/7DAYS_27015_131/7DaysToDieServer_Data/333/" />

I will try that real soon.

Thanks for helping me out.

Mutch appreciated.

OK, so changing the save folder worked out perfectly and fixed the problem.

Now I'm planning on running my own startup script. But then it gives me some other errors:

 

Unable to preload the following plugins:

libMouseLib.so

libeac_server.so

libeasyanticheat.so

libgetrss.so

libsteam_api.so

steamclient.so

Those are normal. Not an issue.

Ok, but the server still does not start correctly.

I execute the start script, the server starts for maybe 5 to 10 seconds and then it closes.

Make two or more copies of your serverconfig.xml with different port numbers (and add the port number to the name of the config file).

Select serverconfig55480.xml on the command line or in your startscript to get port 55480

 

You might also try "./7DaysToDieServer.x86_64 -help", maybe it lists acceptable parameters.

 

"./7DaysToDieServer.x86_64 -help" does not help much. So it does not show any other startoptions.

The user running the game doesn't have wx rights to this folder: /home/webinterface/.config, and it seems to want them.

You need to tell the game what serverconfig.xml file to use.

[imbalimba420]

I'm so sorry, I can't believe I missed that. It was not loading the serverconfig.xml just like you said.

 

I got it working now. Thanks for the amazing support!

Much appeciated.

Have a nice day everone
