Having the option to specify what launches the server would be the ideal way to do this.

That's not an option for my container... and I also don't want to change the container so that it executes a sh file instead of the original file... From a security perspective that is very, very, very, very,... bad also because the server is reachable from the outside world and that is the main point why I don't want to integrate it or change it.

 

Can you please tell me from where do you get this sh file or the link to a tutorial how to install Bepinex for 7DtD?

 

It would be way better to integrate the start it from the container with an variable.

Sure.  It's included with SubQuake's Undead Legacy mod for 7DtD.  With his A20 release, he has switched most of his code over to BepInEx and the .sh file is included in his Mod which is here: https://ul.subquake.com/.  The requirement is that the server needs to be launched using the run_bepinex.sh file.

 

Instructions for his A20 server are as follows:

That is not really true, the server needs to be started with special environment variables so the server loads the Bepinex hook.

 

I will look into it to make the server download the default Bepinex and install it instead of this custom one. The main issue with this is that there is no consistency with 7DtD and no offical Bepinex release like for Valheim.

After it downloaded Bepinex you can replace the old version with the files from the link you've posted and it should work fine too. I will get back to you when I've done the needed modifications.

Please do the following:

1. the container
2. Edit the template and add a variable like in this screenshot
   
3. Click "Apply"
4. Let the container fully start (you will see that it pulls the official BepInEx version
5. Stop the container
6. Extract the files from your mod into the game directory and replace all files if asked (don't delete the 'BepInEx-VERSION#' file)
7. Start the container and it should load the BepInEx version that you've extracted

 

The worst thing that can happen is if you start the container and a new version from BepInEx is realeased that it overwrites some of the files and the mod doesn't work properly anymore but that would be easily fixable if you replace the mod files again, but that is only a guess and is possible not the case.

Thanks ich777!  That was fast.  I'm seeing this now after following your instructions:

 

 

Not seeing any BepInEx in the output_log.txt in 7DaysToDie_Data folder either.  The screenshot above says it's hooking into UnityPlayer instead.  Is that possibly why?

 

 

 

*edit* - I am seeing some BepInEx in the log file...was just further into the log than I thought it would be :D.  Looks like it's working!  Thanks for the quick update on this!  You're awesome!

VALHEIM MOD QUESTION  Quick question not sure if its been answered i couldnt find it. But are the mods for windows Valheim servers the same as for unraid?  i couldnt find any docs explaining if they are the same or not or which mods to use for Valheim

I think so, I only run a Valheim server with Valheim+ on it, but if you are using BepInEx I'm not 100% sure...

 

But keep in mind that you don't have to rum every mod on ther server, some are client only and some are server only from what I know.

Im looking to run Valheim+  and Epic loot   the other ones i wanted to try are  client based.

 

Could you tell me how you installed valheim+   was it as simple as drag and drop ?   All the websites i find say install this mod loader blah blah blah

Simply enable it in the Docker template and the container will download, install and run it.

I think you have to install this manually by dropping it into the right directory on the server.

Yeah totally blind i saw it as i was going through the install again  I was like WOW i didnt see how ez it is just to type in TRUE hahaha  thank you for taking the time to reply.

With the 7 Days docker, is there any way to use the GAME_PARAMS environment variable to have the logfile option be able to create a file with the current date/time in the filename?  I've tried using:
GAME_PARAMS=-logfile output_log_$$date +%F-%T.log

It cuts off the file name after the word date.  I've checked the logs and it's passing the entire line to the executable string.  From what I've been able to find it doesn't look like it's possible in docker.  Was hoping you might have a solution.

I would rather try this:

-logfile output_log_$(date +%F-%T).log

or:

-logfile output_log_`date +%F-%T`.log

 

If this none of this is working, I really can't help... Sorry...

hello @ich777,

 

I have been trawling through this topic and the official satisfactory wiki to try and figure out why I can't connect to my satisfactory server via public IP. The server installed and launched without a hitch and I can join locally. I have forwarded 7777, 15000, and 15777  (UDP) to my unraid host but I am unable to see my server using my custom domain or even my explicit public IP. Right now the container is running with all defaults from install.

 

Am I missing something? Anything else I can troubleshoot? Any help is greatly appreciated. Also thank you for putting this container together!

Please double check once more if the protocol and the ports are correct.

Are you trying from your local network to reach the server? Maybe try it from outside.

Have you already tried your public IP.

 

Another issue could be that you ISP blocks some ports by default.

If you can join locally it's most likely a network issue, as said above maybe your ISP blocks some ports by default without you knowing another thing could be that maybe NAT reflection is not working properly.

Anyone Know how to setup the DST Server, i have followed the instructions but it just loops in the logs with a error unable to find main.lua. and some other errors.

DST.log.txt

put log into file to not bloat the thread

The 7 Days To Die container seems to be buggered since the recent (major) Alpha 20 update.

Basically, with a vanilla set-up, it creates the root: \7dtd directory and two subdirectories: \Saves and \User, then it goes into an endless loop of failure message in the log:

---
---Prepare Server---
grep: /serverdata/serverfiles/serverconfig.xml: No such file or directory
---Creating SaveGameFolder config ---
sed: can't read /serverdata/serverfiles/serverconfig.xml: No such file or directory
---Savegame location found---
grep: /serverdata/serverfiles/serverconfig.xml: No such file or directory
---Creating UserDataFolder config ---
sed: can't read /serverdata/serverfiles/serverconfig.xml: No such file or directory
---UserDataFolder location found---
---Server ready---
---Start Server---
/opt/scripts/start-server.sh: line 169: /serverdata/serverfiles/7DaysToDieServer.x86_64: No such file or directory
---

 

FYI, this is on UnRaid server and was working flawlessly, up until the A20 patch.  Also, prior to re-trying it, I removed the container and completely deleted the original \7dtd directory.  I didn't change the: \steamcmd directory since that is used by other containers, like Rust, Don't Starve and those are all working.

 

Thoughts?

What GAME_ID are you using so that I can try it on my own?

The default: 294420

In the past it's never been difficult.  This time, I simply add the container and leave all the settings to the defaults for now (ports, etc.) and after "apply" is does some typical preparatory stuff then gets no further.

The initial report (this seems fine...):

I can't reproduce this error: DST.log.txt

The dedicated server starts just fine on my server, haven't created a token but it starts fine anyways and this shouldn't be necessary.

 

Do you have a Cache drive installed? If not make sure that your server doesn't split the game files across multiple disks.

If you have a Cache drive installed make sure to set the appdata share in terms of "Use Cache" in the Share settings to "Only" or "Prefer".

I also now tried and have no issue whatsoever, do you run AdGuard or PiHole somewhere on your network?

It seems like something failed with the download of certain files. Are there any files in the '7dtd' folder?

 

Also here is the log from a newly installed instance on my server: 7dtd.log.txt

 

Please try to start over by deleting the container and the 7dtd folder that lives in your appdata directory and pull a fresh copy from the Container from the CA App.

mmmm, i dont have a cache drive how can i tell if its splitting it over multiple disks. if it helps is is the settings used.

Usually it should not when set to disk1.

 

You can go to the main tab and see if you appdata folder is spread across multiple disks.

 

You could also define that your appdata share is only used by disk1 or whatever but keep in mind that you have to change the path im the template depending where the files are.

 

Some games have huge issues if you define /mnt/user/... instead of the real path.

Yes my appdata is so by adding disk1 should this resolve the problem?
