Never did get it to work, and never found any other posts about it. That's when I started playing Arma 3 just to fly the pods around... lol

Over a year ago now, the last post here, but I'm wondering if anyone got this working? I have exactly this issue, it shows up, but nothing happens.

Have you disabled mysql's strict mode? Also, do you get to the joining screen at all, like I did (hanging on bambi part)? Have you tripple checked you did the MySql portion correctly? And are you pointing the server to the right location for mysql (localhost IP)?

Hey Mr. Infistar, I've disabled the infiSTAR reboot because it simply shuts my server down and doesn't restart. I notice in the logs, and the config file, the command shutdown is used. Is there a reboot command we could use instead? Thanks!

Hey W4lly, I finally got this working, great work thanks for sharing!! One suggestion: please add something like this into the README for other n00bs like me: Thanks to Razor77 and W4lly for helping me to realize this!

It appears when I build a base, each time I reboot parts of the base vanish until it's all gone. No errors in game, but something is deleting these items from MySQL. I recall in Arma 2 DayZ mod there was a day counter, after X days items were deleted. Is this the same in Exile? Any idea where I should start looking?

Perfect, thank you!!

No problem, thanks for quick reply. There are lots of reboot "how to's" so I will refer to those. Just wanted to check though, because obviously a #reboot function in your script would have been the easiest! Vielen Dank, und schoen wieder von dir betreut zu werden! Hatte sehr viel spass mit infiSTAR und Arma 2 DayZ

Thanks for the quick replies Razor77 & W4lly!! I had actually checked that file but couldn't find the issue until I read through Renegade2k6's post (thanks btw), there I noted in my exile_server_config.cpp file I had the following: //keyframes[] = {"Sunny", "Cloudy", "Thunderstorm"}; keyframes[] = {"Sunny"}; Well no wonder it was always sunny! I would have thought all weather options were in the main config file, guess not! Time to add weather and snow now! Thanks for the help guys!!

My cherno winter seems to always have good weather (both before and after this mod, although now there is a cold wind and scary sounds). Do I need to enable dynamic weather somewhere?

Wow, thanks!! This is awesome! Did you update the main files with the fix for the icon going black? I didn't see any confirmation the tweak fixed it.

We salute you for your fine work! o7

That did the trick. Thx guys!!

Thx BaroN. I double checked, my mission file reads so: version=12; class Mission { addOns[]= { "exile_client", "a3_map_altis" }; addOnsAuto[]= { "exile_client", "Ryanzombies", "ryanzombiesfunctions", "Ryanzombiesanims", "Ryanzombiesfaces", "a3_map_altis" }; If the startup command were a programming language, you would be 100% correct, but my understanding is you only need the ; if you are adding another var/startup parameter. So you only need that \; between the two mods.

Hey ZZK, you again! Thx for all your help so far! First off, I literally just discovered a mistake on my end, server start command: //This one resulted in bad vehicle errors in logs //./arma3server -config=config.cfg -mod=@exile;@ryanzombies -servermod=@exileserver //This one works ./arma3server -config=config.cfg -mod=@exile\;@ryanzombies -servermod=@exileserver Now, i do get zombies and have had a blast shooting them already, so that all works. I think I still have a small error somewhere though as the logs show a lot of this: 15:04:20 "ExileZ 2.0: Zombie Group Highest Compound Weight : 117" 15:04:20 "ExileZ 2.0: Randomly Selected Value : 101" 15:04:20 "ExileZ 2.0: Selected Zombie Group : [[""RyanZombieC_man_1medium""],[""RyanZombieC_man_polo_1_Fmedium""],[""RyanZombieC_man_polo_2_Fmedium""],[""RyanZombieC_man_polo_4_Fmedium""],[""RyanZombieC_man_polo_5_Fmedium""],[""RyanZombieC_man_polo_6_Fmedium""],[""RyanZombieC_man_p_fugitive_Fmedium""],[""RyanZombieC_man_w_worker_Fmedium""],[""RyanZombieC_scientist_Fmedium""],[""RyanZombieC_man_hunter_1_Fmedium""],[""RyanZombieC_man_pilot_Fmedium""],[""RyanZombieC_journalist_Fmedium""],[""RyanZombieC_Orestesmedium""],[""RyanZombieC_Nikosmedium""],[""RyanZombie15medium""],[""RyanZombie16medium""],[""RyanZombie17medium""],[""RyanZombie18medium""],[""RyanZombie19medium""],[""RyanZombie20medium""],[""RyanZombie21medium""],[""RyanZombie22medium""],[""RyanZombie23medium""],[""RyanZombie24medium""],[""RyanZombie25medium""],[""RyanZombie26medium""],[""RyanZombie27medium""],[""RyanZombie28medium""],[""RyanZombie29medium""],[""RyanZombie30medium""],[""RyanZombie31medium""],[""RyanZombie32medium""]] Compound Weight : 105" 15:04:20 "ExileZ 2.0: Selected Zombie Class : RyanZombie19medium" 15:04:20 "ExileZ 2.0: Spawning 1 Zombie | Position : [20872,6696.09,0] | Class : RyanZombie19medium " 15:04:20 Warning Message: You cannot play/edit this mission; it is dependent on downloadable content that has been deleted. ryanzombies I am going to double check the folder is all lower case next. Edit: lower case had no effect on that latest error. Is it even an error I need to worry about?

Hey guys, I spent the last while reading through the topic here and found some people that had the same issue I am having, but no follow up. Wondering if someone can help. Running ubuntu server, vanilla, works fine. I then downloaded ExileZ 2 and did the following - Downloaded Zombies & Demons 4.6 by ryandombrowsky - Copied @Ryanzombies into server side arma3 folder, changed Ryanzombies and Addons to lower case - Moved @Ryanzombies/Keys/RyanD.bikey to /keys/ folder on server - Copied @Ryanzombies into arma3 folder on steam data directory, no edits to upper/lower case - Checked exilez folder init\fn_init.sqf and left it as default - Repackaged exilez.pbo - Moved exilez.pbo onto server at @exileserver/addons - Opened up Exile.Altis.pbo and added "ryanzombies" & "ryanzombiesfunctions" to the "addOnsAuto[]=" section of the mission.sqm. - Repackaged and uploaded - Changed file owners accordingly on server When I start the server this way ./arma3server -config=config.cfg -mod=@exile;@ryanzombies -servermod=@exileserver I get this error Warning Message: You cannot play/edit this mission; it is dependent on downloadable content that has been deleted.Ryanzombies, ryanzombiesfunctions And if I start it this way ./arma3server -config=config.cfg -mod=@exile -servermod=@exileserver;@ryanzombies The RPT is full of these errors and no zombies spawn 14:22:12 "ExileZ 2.0: Zombie Group Highest Compound Weight : 117" 14:22:12 "ExileZ 2.0: Randomly Selected Value : 76" 14:22:12 "ExileZ 2.0: Selected Zombie Group : [[""RyanZombieC_man_1slow""],[""RyanZombieC_man_polo_1_Fslow""],[""RyanZombieC_man_polo_2_Fslow""],[""RyanZombieC_man_polo_4_Fslow""],[""RyanZombieC_man_polo_5_Fslow""],[""RyanZombieC_man_polo_6_Fslow""],[""RyanZombieC_man_p_fugitive_Fslow""],[""RyanZombieC_man_w_worker_Fslow""],[""RyanZombieC_scientist_Fslow""],[""RyanZombieC_man_hunter_1_Fslow""],[""RyanZombieC_man_pilot_Fslow""],[""RyanZombieC_journalist_Fslow""],[""RyanZombieC_Orestesslow""],[""RyanZombieC_Nikosslow""],[""RyanZombie15slow""],[""RyanZombie16slow""],[""RyanZombie17slow""],[""RyanZombie18slow""],[""RyanZombie19slow""],[""RyanZombie20slow""],[""RyanZombie21slow""],[""RyanZombie22slow""],[""RyanZombie23slow""],[""RyanZombie24slow""],[""RyanZombie25slow""],[""RyanZombie26slow""],[""RyanZombie27slow""],[""RyanZombie28slow""],[""RyanZombie29slow""],[""RyanZombie30slow""],[""RyanZombie31slow""],[""RyanZombie32slow""]] Compound Weight : 100" 14:22:12 "ExileZ 2.0: Selected Zombie Class : RyanZombie31slow" 14:22:12 "ExileZ 2.0: Spawning 1 Zombie | Position : [20887,6817.03,0] | Class : RyanZombie31slow " 14:22:12 Warning Message: Bad vehicle type RyanZombie31slow I can't seem to find any solutions googling the bad vehicle type, but it seems that it doesn't want to spawn those models... What am I doing wrong?

Wow, I got it to work. Thanks to the hint to check that log, I decided it must have something to do with the strict mode on MySQL. I used this page to disable strict mode on ubuntu https://serverpilot.io/community/articles/how-to-disable-strict-mode-in-mysql-5-7.html Basically do this //Create this file sudo nano /etc/mysql/conf.d/disable_strict_mode.cnf //Enter these two lines [mysqld] sql_mode=IGNORE_SPACE,NO_ZERO_IN_DATE,NO_ZERO_DATE,ERROR_FOR_DIVISION_BY_ZERO,NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION //Restart MySQL sudo service mysql restart

Hey guys, Thanks to this "how to" I was able to get really far, so great work and thanks for the work. I am however running in to a problem. I'm running ubuntu 16.04 as the game server, and after I connect I time out on the spawning bambi screen. I think the culprit is this last section in the startup logs: 22:37:31 Error position: <select 0> 22:37:31 Error Generic error in expression 22:37:31 File exile_server\code\ExileServer_system_database_query_insertSingle.sqf, line 16 22:38:11 Warning: Cleanup player - person 2:1 not found I've done some searching, as to not waste people's time, but all I can find is people running windows servers and having to disable strict mode. That doesn't seem to apply to the linux version, at least none of the commands seem to match up. This is a clean install, so there is no updating. I compared the update sql files and the database is already up to date, so that doesn't seem to be the answer either. I tried using MariaDB instead of MySQL, but my lack of skills led to an all out fail and I ended up formatting the machine and starting over again. Here is the full log file http://h1mail.ca/startuplog.txt ANY help is much appreciated! Thanks!
