So i have been going round in circle's trying to get this up and running. its the 7days2die container from ich777. i have followed this guide i found,

 

https://7dac.net/a-guide-on-how-to-install-ich777s-container-docker-on-an-unraid-server/

 

everything is setup, XML config file has been edited, ports opened etc. i currently have it in bridge mode but have also tried giving it its own ip but still cannot connect. i have tried different port ranges as some have said that worked but not for me!

 

when i search for the server in the game it shows nothing found, when i try and direct connect manually to ip it just says could not retrieve server config. 

 

the only thing i have noticed is when starting the container and its running my server CPU usage is just over half so i know its doing something! i have read that some said it can take time to show up in the server list on the game, but surely if i direct connect it should still work right?

 

would appreciate any help with this as my whole family love this game and would be awesome and convenient to have this setup and working

 

thanks in advance guys

Update:

 

i have looked into the docker container and it looks like its constantly restarting, the uptime gets to about 20/30s then restarts. im looking at the log for it and im getting this

 

/opt/scripts/start-server.sh: line 184:    71 Illegal instruction     ${SERVER_DIR}/7DaysToDieServer.x86_64 -configfile=${SERVERCONFIG} -nographics -batchmode ${GAME_PARAMS}
---No optional script found, continuing---

 

any ideas? from this im assuming the server isnt even starting at all.

Try looking in the support thread for this container. Click on the container icon in Unraid's GUI, and select support.

Update:

 

ok so i found the issue! it seams that the server i was running this on (i have 2 unraid servers) the processor wasn't compatible for this 7 days to die container to run! i managed to research the 71 illegal instruction and found it linked to incompatible processor. after finding this out i installed it on my other server which has a 6 core amd CPU and it runs just fine! so if anyone else has similar issues then check your CPU. 

 

AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 Dual Core 4200+ @ 2200 MHz (incompatible for 7days to die docker container)

 

my next issue is running mods on the server as currently its refusing to see that they are even there! it loads the 4 pre installed ones but none that i add myself.
