Server fails after 6min

[welchmek]

I purchased a dedicate server recently and have been trying to setup my Ark server on it. its running Ubuntu 14.04 I performed all the install processes listed on the wiki but when I launch it it begins running and gives me:

Code: Select all

steam@ubuntu:~/servers/ark/ShooterGame/Binaries/Linux$ ./startark.sh
Using binned.
4.5.1-0+UE4 7038 3077 402 3
[S_API FAIL] SteamAPI_Init() failed; SteamAPI_IsSteamRunning() failed.
Setting breakpad minidump AppID = 346110

After about 6 minuets it then gives me this:

Code: Select all

Signal 11 caught.
EngineCrashHandler: Signal=11
./startark.sh: line 2:  2094 Segmentation fault      (core dumped) ./ShooterGameServer TheIsland?listen?SessionName=Welchmekia?ServerPassword=xxxx?ServerAdminPassword=xxxxxxxx -server -log

I have also tried using the FezVrasta/ark-server-tools and it appears to do the exact same thing.
the server currently has firewall disabled and the server provider has reassured me that the ports are not blocked. I cannot think of anything else to try I have also deleted everything and started the whole install over and got the same results. The server has 16G memory and max files have been set.

Some thing is wrong with your startup line, try this as startup line:

Code: Select all

"TheIsland?listen?MultiHome=91.205.193.201?MaxPlayers=70?RCONEnabled=True?RCONPort=32330?ServerAdminPassword=123?SessionName=Your Server Name" -nosteamclient -server -log

This must be placed AFTER the: ./ShooterGame

I tried replacing my startup code with that and only changed my IP address but the only thing that looks to have changed was "27080 Segmentation fault"

Code: Select all

steam@ubuntu:~/servers/ark/ShooterGame/Binaries/Linux$ bash startark.sh
Using binned.
4.5.1-0+UE4 7038 3077 402 3

Your probably missing a library:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install lib32gcc1

[welchmek]

Installed that one from the Wiki tried it again to be sure and tells me I already have newest version.

[Dashproject]

also libc6-dev installed?

Code: Select all

apt-get install libc6-dev

And adjusted your Open File Limits ?

[welchmek]

looks like that one was not installed. got it now and trying it out.
I set the open file limits as per the wiki the only part I was not sure if i did right was when editing the /etc/security/limits.conf in the code it showed * in there so I put them in but maybe its just me that seemed like something I shouldn't do.

[welchmek]

Still fails after a bit

[Dashproject]

Can you give me your startup script (do use the code thingy) and the output of:

Code: Select all

cat /etc/sysctl.conf

and

Code: Select all

cat /etc/security/limits.conf

//Edited: Found a mistake in my command

[welchmek]

Not sure if its what you mean but the file I run to launch is:

Code: Select all

#! /bin/bash
./ShooterGameServer "TheIsland?listen?MultiHome=23.238.135.194?MaxPlayers=70?RCONEnabled=True?RCONPort=32330?ServerAdminPassword=123?SessionName=Your Server Name" -nosteamclient -server -log

second one:

#Each line describes a limit for a user in the form:
#
#<domain>        <type>  <item>  <value>
#
#Where:
#<domain> can be:
#        - a user name
#        - a group name, with @group syntax
#        - the wildcard *, for default entry
#        - the wildcard %, can be also used with %group syntax,
#                 for maxlogin limit
#        - NOTE: group and wildcard limits are not applied to root.
#          To apply a limit to the root user, <domain> must be
#          the literal username root.
#
#<type> can have the two values:
#        - "soft" for enforcing the soft limits
#        - "hard" for enforcing hard limits
#
#<item> can be one of the following:
#        - core - limits the core file size (KB)
#        - data - max data size (KB)
#        - fsize - maximum filesize (KB)
#        - memlock - max locked-in-memory address space (KB)
#        - nofile - max number of open files
#        - rss - max resident set size (KB)
#        - stack - max stack size (KB)
#        - cpu - max CPU time (MIN)
#        - nproc - max number of processes
#        - as - address space limit (KB)
#        - maxlogins - max number of logins for this user
#        - maxsyslogins - max number of logins on the system
#        - priority - the priority to run user process with
#        - locks - max number of file locks the user can hold
#        - sigpending - max number of pending signals
#        - msgqueue - max memory used by POSIX message queues (bytes)
#        - nice - max nice priority allowed to raise to values: [-20, 19]
#        - rtprio - max realtime priority
#        - chroot - change root to directory (Debian-specific)
