Hello, for IW4X Server I made a issue on the github but asking for help here as well. Running not on unraid but a VPS.

 

I am unable to see the server in the browser or directly connect to it in game. BUT I am able to see the server webpage by accessing it via a web browser.

 

Here is the log for the container.

 

Any suggestions are appreciated!

The Don't Starve Together server doesn't seem to launch the caves correctly. It keeps launching a second overworld server that shows in the server browser instead of a caves instance. I have been messing with it all day but cannot get it to generate caves.

It appears to be the same issue as this one from last year:
 

Two servers show up, no caves generated. Followed previous instructions but no dice. Can post some logs if needed. Apologies, new to Unraid/Docker!

But I thought this was solved a few posts later IIRC?

Anyways, I will look into this shortly.

 

However the Caves should be generated just fine because you can basically go to caves.

If you are not using Unraid I would suggest that we discus this on GitHub, will look into this ASAP.

Since you archived / deprecated the github I can't respond to your comment (Also for anyone else in the future that comes across this comment). Made sure sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 as I had ran a different Killing Floor 2 Docker server on the VPS before. I tried dobolinux docker as you suggested before and it just kept restarting due to WINE errors. But thank you very much for your time trying as well! Wish iw4x had a easier way to do Linux servers. Hope you have a wonderful day.

Yes, sorry but I had to do that since I even don't own the game and troubleshooting is rather hard for me, but glad that you commented here.

And that worked perfectly fine I think or am I wrong?

I think there are more containers out there for IW4X.

Sure thing, I'm sorry that I had to deprecate it but as said, I even don't own the game and troubleshooting is really hard for me.

 

Trying to get 7DaysToDie running correctly

I can get everything done including access from wan.

 

the problem is, when i make any changes to serverconfig.xml (using notepad++) and permissions are correct, and restart the docker, it just resets it to defaults. how do i config the server if the config file just resets?

 

 

Edit:  when I disable "validate install" it works.

That's why you don't enable this on a default installation.

 

Please copy the serverconfig.xml to something like myserverconfig.xml and then change also in the template the config file name to myserverconfig.

Reason behind this is that 7DtD ships serverconfig.xml with the server and on each update or validation the serverconfig.xml will be overwritten, that's why there is an option in the template to change the name from the server config to another name.

 

There is nothing I can do about that that the standard serverconfig.xml is shipped with the game files, just rename it to something else or copy it and change the name for the config in the Docker template to it and you are good to go.

 

Hope that makes sense to you.

Is this still an issue or is it solved?

Have you changed any ports in the template or/and in the config? Have you forwarded all the ports from the template in your router/firewall with the appropriate protocol too?

I hopped into my server and could not see any caves on the map. Both instances were the same way. Different characters, no caves.

looks like this is all solved, i have a limited understanding of how docker works, but i do use it alot. Thank you for making the container available on unraid, working great now.

What happened to the IW4X server? I had it installed, then deleted it, then tried to reinstall but its gone.

A user reported it as broken and since I don‘t own the game I deprecated it.

 

Do you confirm it working then I will bring it back…

I was actually in the middle of setting up, when I overwritten files I shouldn't of. That's when I cleared the docker, and was going to try it again.  Are we sure the user actually downloaded the game files, and put them inside the docker container? If they don't download them and put in correct location it will never work correctly. I do know the iw4x.org url is incorrect. The real url is: https://xlabs.dev/support_iw4x_server

The container should now be downloadable again through the CA App, from Docker Hub and GHCR.

I'm pretty sure he did all of that. @DudeShift was the user that reported it's not working.

 

Could you please try if the container is working for you please and report back?

Hello @ich777 I am struggling with the Gmod Docker container. I installed it will the default settings (Only thing I changed was added 'true' for validating the game files) The server appears to download / startup and I don't see any errors but for some odd reason I am unable to join the server via the game. I don't even see the server at all not even in the 'Lan' tab within Gmod. I have port forwarded correctly, I know this because I am running your other Docker container for the game 'Day of Defeat: Source' and my friends and I are able to see the server in that game and join it like you normally would. Maybe I am missing something and would love some help. 

 

My Unraid version: 6.10.3

I am not using a cache drive. 

 

Below is a screenshot of the log once it stops.

 

 

Please let me know if there is any other information you need from me? I'd love to get this working so I can have all my game servers in one place via my Unraid server.

Please don't do this if not really necessary.

Have you yet tried to add it to the Favorites in the Steam Server Browser with IP:PORT?

Roger that, I have removed that.

I have not tried that specifically but I have tried connecting via the console within Garry's Mod by executing the 'connect IP:Port' command. It never connects, times out after 5 tries.

Roger that, I have updated and now I am on 6.11.1.  After updating I wanted to start fresh with the Garry's Mod Container. I deleted the container and folder in appdata and reinstalled it again. Log looks the same and I still can't join or see the server within Garry's Mod.

Yes I had the full game install. Luckily though (with some headache) I was able to finally get that other docker working that you suggested.

I will try that over the weekend on my server and report back.

Have you yet tried it to add it to the Steam Server Browser as a Favorite and press refresh one time after doing so?

Thank you  I am very interested to hear if you'll experience a similar issue. I hope I am not going crazy haha.

And yes I have, when I try to add it via the Favorites it shows 0/0 slots with a 2000 ping latency which I guess indicates the server can't be reached? It basically does the same thing when I try to connect via the in game console. Fails after 5 tries..

No issue over here:

 

It's even listed in Game here (you should see that I'm connected in the following screenshot):

 

And there is no issue connection to it:

 

Here is the log output from the container:

 

Haven't tried to make it publicly available but this should be no issue too.

I've fixed the container now, please delete the container and the folder that was created for dontstarve in your appdata directory and re-download the container from the CA App.

 

Caves are now loading properly.
