These are my suggestions for things to look at. 1) What path location did you put the file into? For example, with the path you have given above I would expect that the file would be under the LinuxServer directory. /home/ark/server/ShooterGame/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/Game.ini /home/ark/server/ShooterGame/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/GameUserSettings.ini 2) Does the UserID that you're using to run the game have all of the necessary path elements in its environment? For example, is "/home/ark/server/ShooterGame/Saved/Config/LinuxServer" in the path for that UserID? 3) Does the UserID that you're using to run the game have the rights that it needs for all of the game directories? For example: 755 for the LinuxServer Directory ( drwxr-xr-x userid userid 4096 May 30 00:04 LinuxServer ) and 700 for the ini files? ( -rw------- userid userid 6632 May 30 00:23 GameUserSettings.ini ) 4) Are you running that start command manually or from a script, and it you're using a script did you include "ExecStart=" for the command? Example: ExecStart=/home/ark/server/ShooterGame/Binaries/Linux/ShooterGameServer TheIsland?listen 5) Are you sure that you included all of the elements that are needed in the startup command? As far as I know you need at least the following items in your startup script if you want it to start properly Executable, listen, SessionName, Port, QueryPort, -server (and I think -log) For example: ExecStart=/home/ark/server/ShooterGame/Binaries/Linux/ShooterGameServer TheIsland?listen?SessionName=YourSessionName?Port=####?QueryPort=##### -server -log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyCS Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 The most common cause that I've seen for those issues are some type of problem with your command line parameter structure. Try including it with your start command as the above user posted.
