Dedicated Server Problems
« on: May 17, 2016, 10:54:39 PM »
I'm currently trying to setup a dedicated server with the training template.

I'm running into some small issues. The first issue is that the expansions list doesn't show all the loaded mods.



However, the server reports that all the mods have been loaded when it boots, additionally, the ArmA 3 launcher acknowledges that the server has all loaded addons.



Finally, when you actually load into the mission the following errors show up:

As far as I can tell, the errors technically come from CBA, but I cannot find the addons that it lists anywhere on the file system. Please see the edit below.

Everything on the server actually works as expected. The addons are all loaded, RHS equipment exists, TFAR works, ACE works as expected, and all the maps exist in the server. The only thing that I can think of is that there is an issue with the actual server software itself at this point.

Any help with the issue would be appreciated.

EDIT: Mod warnings came from a naming issue. The expansion list issue still remains, however.

IIRC That list is just buggy as fuck and always has been. If everyone can join and play i wouldn't worry about it.

You could try specifically enabling ports for Arma 3 in your Windows Firewall with Advanced Security. You'd need to open ports 2302-2305, for both UDP and TDP, as well as for Inbound and Outbound rules. If those rules for Arma 3 doesn't exist, you may need to create them.

This is what I figured it is. Testing has shown that it works perfectly so far. Thanks for the help LT!

I can confirm that it's just a reporting bug. My servers always show the same (or similar) thing where extensions will have loaded but will have a red light next to them. As long as the server boots fine and everyone can join in, and the assets are visible in-game, then I wouldn't worry one bit.
