Yes, but you do this with the Variable in the 'Show More Settings' section of the Template.   Keep in mind that for every container the Game Port itself has to be set in the GAME_PORT variable like mentioned above.     This is the way you would do it (this is tested and working btw):

This will hopefully shed some light on the underside working bits of building a cluster of servers for ARK:SurvivalEvolved.   With the inspiration (read thievery) from @growlith I present the A3C (ARK Cluster Companion Container). It and the accompanying XLM files should allow for a fairly simple stand up of a new ARK server cluster.   https://github.com/CydFSA/A3C   Go to the github, fetch the XMLs for however many servers you want to use in your new cluster, salt

Just thought I'd share my experience setting up a Valheim server with this docker app from @ich777(thank you!)   You don't need to worry about Steam authentication for Valheim, the default anonymous user can download and host a server (yay!), so no fuss with Steam users or Steam Guard to worry about. Deploy the docker as provided, leaving username & password blank. The Server Name field is important, this is how your name will appear in the public server list in Valh

Ark:Survival Evolved

How are you backing up the server itself? With CA Appdata or some other method?

 

I don't think that's possible, but one idea would be that you include the backup time in the welcome message from the server if the backups are scheduled.

Still having trouble getting Ark Survival Evolved server to work.

 

Here is what I've got.  I went back through the thread and didn't see @Cyd reply, did I miss it?

 

I tried removing the container, deleting the folders it created on the drive and still nothing.  

 

All of my port forwarding for the UDP and the TCP ports to the container are setup.  Only forwarding UDP traffic to the UDP ports and only TCP traffic to the TCP port.  (UDP:7777,7778,27015) & (TCP:27020).

 

The firewall allows the traffic inbound as well for these ports to the container.

Have you tried to run it in the default bridge mode?

 

Please remove 'true' from Validate Installation, that will do nothing on a fresh installation.

 

From what I see the server runs fine... Can you also post the log output?

The log output I attached isn't the right log output?  

 

Switched it to Bridge Mode to see what would happen.. here's the log output of that.

It shows up on LAN now.. I can try and forward all the ports and open the firewall for it.. but I really don't want to direct internet traffic to my Unraid server directly.

 

So it showed up.. thought maybe I should check if it actually works.  Tried to connect, prompted me to Install BattleEye.. I did.. starts to connect and shuts down.  No change in log output.

This is not strictly speaking your server, as long as you forward the right ports it would not make much of a difference.

I can only suspect that something prevents the server from communicating with your LAN if it's in your Custom br1.

BattleEye is not necessary, look at the template, BattleEye is disable.

Btw it never asked me to install anything on my PC.

So it's working... no changes from last post other than using BattleEye.

 

So I put in -NoBattleEye to try and not make it a requirement.  When I launch the game and choose the option to not use BattleEye it would not connect, and it would try to get me to install BattleEye.  I did some googling and there were posts talking about that flag not working.  So I tried with BattleEye and it worked.

 

This is still in Bridge mode, which I do not like.  I am not sure what would prevent my machine from getting on the container.  I can ping it without any issue.  But this is definitely something funky with the network.  So at this point it's confirmed not a container thing!  

 

Thanks for your help!

I am using your config to run a Valheim server, and it is working fine. Now I am trying to add yours for Rust too, but when I try to add it, it opens up as the Valheim one? Do I need to change something?

I don't understand can you please be a little bit more specific please?

Where did it open Valheim in the CA App when you try to install it, maybe also attach a screenshot please.

So my buddy who also has Unraid tried setting things up as well.  

 

He is having the same problem as me.  Forwarding all the ports and it's still not showing up in the list of Unofficial Servers.

 

We both forwarded all 4 ports and ensured our firewalls are open.

 

He did a port scan on me and I did one on him...

 

The results of the nmap were the same.

 

Spoiler

 

% sudo nmap -sU -sS -p "U:7777,7778,27015,T:27020" <public ip>

 

PORT STATE SERVICE

27020/tcp closed unknown

7777/udp open|filtered cbt

7778/udp open|filtered interwise

27015/udp open halflife

 

We can both connect to our servers locally via LAN filter.. but they never show up on the Unofficial.

 

Also tried using Steam Launch Options (connect ip_address) to specify the server IP and that didn't work.

@Saiba Samurai Sorry to hear you are having issues getting ARK servers up and running.  Just out of curiosity what kind of router are you using for your port forwarding and are you using stock firmware on the router or a third party firmware.  Not that it should make any difference for port forwarding but just wanted to ask in case someone else has had similar issues with the same router/firmware.

 

Also, when setting up your custom network to run your servers on is the IP Address within the same network subnet mask as your main network?   I saw in your screenshot that your custom network you tried using is 192.168.20.117.  Is your router IP set at 192.168.20.1?

Router: Unifi UDM-Pro (Up to date)

 

I've since moved it to the bridge network of the unraid server which is on my main network it makes no difference.

 

Also for context, I've run multiple Valheim servers in the same configuration without issues.

@Cyd can you maybe help here? I can't think what else could be wrong here since on my end everything is working and I think it also is working for many others too.

 

I can only think of some kind of network issue.

If you have a server setup and ports forwarded do you mind sharing information to see if I can see and connect to your server?

Currently not because I've uninstalled it again, I always install servers if a problem is reported and try if it actually works or not.

But I can set one up if you want to but don't expect it to be today... :D

 

Please also keep in mind that @Cyd runs also servers and has no problem at all...

So my buddy and I tried his server again this morning.. and now his is working.  He swears he changed nothing.  Wasn't working now it is.. maybe mine just needs to cook for a bit longer.  ;)

 

At this point just consider me a lunatic.. because I have no idea what is going on with this.

If you want to I can set one up that you can try to join, but I had no problem seeing it in the in game server list and in the Steam Server Browser and had also no problem when connection and joining the game.

I have another unusal problem with an ARK Docker, Where the config files are missing but the server is listed and working.  I am using @Cyd Templates for the ARK Cluster all is working but the config files location /linuxserver is missing on map Valguero_P config 

 

Here is my Docker config file

1660311022_2021-09-09(4).thumb.png.5a8c78e01a40749e73327848b9ad35b3.png

 

The docker is up and running and even found in the browser.

1246491110_2021-09-09(5).thumb.png.5aaf510869d72198a098fa5ee673bb99.png

 

When I browse to that location, no config files to be found.
