Linux Game Server Control Panel


Recommended Posts

I do some gaming on the side and decided to help out my CLAN by building a dedicated server for gaming.  A few months ago I slapped an inexpensive setup.

I have been experimenting with different game server control panels, from "Open Game Panel" and just using the steamcmd line for windows.

 

What I want to do is try some of the open source panels but unfortunately I lack the know how on how to setup one up. 

 

Bright Game Panel

http://www.bgpanel.net/

 

I would like to know if anyone in there spare time could make a docker out of this.

i had a little play around with this, never used it and don't have any game servers so i can't test it beyond getting the web interface up and running, which i have.

 

it's a little convoluted

 

Add my private repo , and add in bright game via template.

 

https://github.com/sparklyballs/private-repo/tree/templates/Sparkly-Private

 

let it run, then stop it.

 

you will need a mariadb/mysql installation or container for this to work.

 

create a database named brightgamepanel

 

then stop the bgpanel container and go to the config folder you saved locally and edit configuration.php

 

the key lines are

 

// DBHOST is the MySQL Database Hostname
// Default: "localhost"
define('DBHOST', '192.168.1.10');

 

and

 

// DBPASSWORD is the MySQL Database Password
define('DBPASSWORD', '*******');

 

substituting the correct values for your setup, use ip address rather than hostname, it works better.

then start the container and have at it, lol.

 

i don't know what other ports need to be exposed etc..... for it to work with game servers.

 

it may well need the net type to be host , i just don't know tbh.

I appreciate the help that has been given. 

 

I'm still having a problem.

 

I used needo's mariadb container and edited the configuration.php file in BGPanel.

I started up the BGPanel docker and tried to get started

I attempted to troubleshoot to see if everything was good on the database side.

Anyone have any ideas on how to solve this problem.

changed it,

 

delete the docker and container, plus existing config files saved locally for brightgamepanel.

 

don't touch the mariadb docker

 

click reload info on the docker tab in the unraid gui then readd the gamepanel docker.

 

then edit the config file with dbase details, stop and restart the container and see how that goes.

Hey sorry guys, I'm not sure if I'm being a giant noob here but I'm getting this error when starting up the game panel

I'm not sure where it's getting "bright-game.br0' from

 

The database seems to exist from what I can tell
