Step 1- Install Oxide

1. You must download the latest version of Oxide for Rust on your computer
2. Unzip the "Oxide.Rust.zip" file on your desktop
3. Open your FTP Client and transfer the "RustDedicated_Data" folder to "/home/ogp_agent/OGP_User_Files/YourServerName/"
4. Once the files are transfered, start your server to create all the prerequisites for Oxide
5. To see if you have installed Oxide correctly, go to the console (either in the game or with third-party software) and type the command oxide.version . This command should show you the Oxide Version

Step 2- Install Plugins

1. To install your plugins correctly, stop your Rust server
2. Go to the plugins section for Rust and download the plugins you want
3. Once you have downloaded your plugins, go to your file manager ("Game Monitor", "Rust", "YouServerName" and "File Manager" button) or with FTP
4. Go to the Oxide folder and then to the Plugins folder. Click on the upload button and select all the plugins you have downloaded
5. To see if you have installed your plugins properly, go to the console (either in the game or third-party software) and type the command oxide.plugins . This command should show you the list of plugins you just installed

Step 3- Update Oxide

1. Shut down your Rust server
2. Download the latest version of Oxide for Rust on your computer
3. Unzip the "Oxide.Rust.zip" file on your desktop
4. Open your FTP Client and transfer the "RustDedicated_Data" folder to "/home/ogp_agent/OGP_User_Files/YourServerName/"
5. Once the files are transfered, start your server to create all the prerequisites for Oxide
6. Start your Rust server
7. To see if the update was done correctly, write in the console oxide.version and oxide.plugins . You will see the version of Oxide and the list of your plugins

I got to step 1-4 and started things up. The server runs, but its still vanilla, there is no mention of oxide in the logs, and no oxide folders are created. I am at a loss since tehre is nothing being logged related to oxide to know what is failing to troubleshoot. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Its an english forums so if ya ask in english we could understand.

So my issue was doing an app update on start (/home/steam/SteamCMD/steamcmd.sh +force_install_dir /home/steam/Rust +login anonymous +app_update 258550 validate +quit) which overrides the Oxide files on load. I removed that line and it worked perfectly. @DenzhatniK
