Server not starting

Hello,

 

I run a Linux Server (Ubuntu 18.04)

 

I tried multiple times, on meanwhile 4 Machines, to setup a Server. But I ran into trouble:

- The whole RustDedicated_Data/Mono folder is missing

- the .sav file for the Map does not get generated

- Server Shuts down after Bootup

 

I tried:

- Another Machine

- Validate Data through Steamcmd

- Installl via LGSM

 

This is the Manual I used

https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Rust_Dedicated_Server

 

And this is my start Command:

 

#!/bin/sh
clear while : do
exec ./RustDedicated -batchmode -nographics
-server.ip xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 
-server.port 28015 
-rcon.ip xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 
-rcon.port 28016 
-rcon.password "xxxxxxxxx" 
-server.maxplayers 20
-server.hostname "[DE]Schnitzeltoast Survival" 
-server.identity "schnitzeltoast.de" 
-server.level "Procedural Map" 
-server.seed 12345 
-server.worldsize 3000 
-server.saveinterval 300 
-server.globalchat true 
-server.description "RUST-Server by Schnitzeltoast.de" 
-server.url "https://schnitzeltoast.de"
-logFile "rustserver.log"
echo "\nRestarting server...\n" done

Sorry we don't offer any server support through here, there's just way too many factors involved for us to help troubleshoot.  Linux server is working though for many of the servers on our list.

Check your setup here:
https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Rust_Dedicated_Server

If you still need help I'd recommend the server owner community forums here:
https://umod.org/community/rust

 

Does anyone of you have an Idea? 


Thanks

Step 1: do not try to install via the Valve wiki! I tried that once, went through dependency hell and then it still didn't work.

I suggest you purge everything and start again from scratch. Create a fresh user account and install rustserver from LinuxGSM. It's straightforward, does everything for you and I've never had any problems with it.
Lol I run into the same trouble with this

- Couldn't load server/rustserver/proceduralmap.3000.1964490064.179.sav - file doesn't exist

- The Mono Dir is still missing

It's been a while since I installed so my memory is a bit hazy, but have you installed mono-devel?

  1. The .sav warning just means that your server has not saved once, so it is making a new map
  2. I wouldn't worry about any "mono" directory, the warnings you are likely seeing are not actually issues
  3. Your .sh file is invalid from what I can tell; here is a valid example: https://github.com/theumod/uMod.Rust/blob/develop/resources/_start-example.sh
Hmkay. My Server is up and running now with LGSM
