mathew2214 Posted March 19, 2020 Author Share Posted March 19, 2020 i cant seem to get a log file. so such file is being created in any of the locations suggested in the sticky. however, simply piping the output of the server's start command into a file as opposed to stdout produced this: https://pastebin.com/dd3YqpBw in case it helps, here is the output of steam's "system information" button. https://pastebin.com/UeMS8PkA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beelzybub Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Lines 41,42 and 43 show a syntax error passing the configfile argument. You have an extra "-" in the line. 2020-03-19T13:09:42 0.351 INF Command line arguments: ./7DaysToDieServer.x86_64 --configfile=serverconfig.xml 2020-03-19T13:09:42 0.355 ERR Error parsing configfile property '-configfile': Unknown config option 2020-03-19T13:09:42 0.355 WRN Command line argument "-configfile" unknown!

mathew2214 Posted March 19, 2020 Author Share Posted March 19, 2020 after fixing my error when starting the program, there is still no log file i can find. directing the output to a file and killing the process after some time using crtl+C produces this now: https://pastebin.com/G57Q63WN those same two errors still repeat and flood stdout when i dont output to a file.

mathew2214 Posted March 19, 2020 Author Share Posted March 19, 2020 SOLVED: adding "logfile output.log" makes the server start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
