The server-side extension extDB was not loaded into the engi

[SlickNick]

Hey guys im trying to run an Altis Life Server and I am in need of great help lol. So I followed a good tutorial and the server runs great just can get in lol. It just says The server-side extension extDB was not loaded into the engine. My MySQL server is running and reachable and the Config files have the correct information(User and Pass, IP, DB Name, Port) so it should be working, @extDB is in my launch parameters I have no idea whats wrong.

Config:

Even changed [Database2] to [AltisLife]
Tried changing the database name to Altis Life.
Also tried changing the IP to localhost and the servers IP.

Thanks for taking a look

extDB is outdated/no longer maintained, extDB2 is the actual version/branch.

The mod has to be loaded with @extDB2 then of course.

Please post your server and client RPT file and also your server start-up parameters. Are you the only one not able to connect to the server, or does this happen to everyone? Did you install the MySQL database correctly?

Thank you for the information!

Im using the outdated extDB but got it connected.

But now when over 60 people join the database connection laggs and people have trouble getting cars and logging in.

Im having this error in the RPT files:

Code: Select all

15:43:40 Error in expression <F={_z=_z-_c;_f setpos [_x,_y,_z];_z};[0,0,0]>
15:43:40   Error position: <_f setpos [_x,_y,_z];_z};[0,0,0]>
15:43:40   Error Undefined variable in expression: _f

Its that error over and over again. A few RPT files got up to 3.48GB with that one error.
Do you think its because the extDB is outdated or some scripting error?

Nice that i worked with the extDB also.

The error you are seeing there is because of an undefined private variable in a function (the logfile will tell you in which a bit further down). Whoever wrote that function did not define the variable correctly through a

Code: Select all

private ["_PrivateVariable"];

declaration. If it is a function that is used frequently, the error will be reported in the .RPT file each time. And it is also using a slow setPos command instead of a faster setPosATL, or setPosASL...

You can try to report this error to the person who wrote this function, or in the Github bugtracker.

You know how I could find the error and correct it?

[Caliban55]

The RPT file will tell you in which function the error occurred, where the private variable _f needs to be declared.

In this function add a the following code, before the variable is used the first time (it is commonly declared at the beginning of a function):

Code: Select all

private ["_f"];

I've been looking in the .rpt files for the script with the syntax error but have had no luck locating it. I see a few other error and it tells me the location and the line number. This is the only error i see in the rpt file when the server is lagging so i hope if i find this error i can fix it. At this point i have run out of ideas. If you could be so kind and possibly take a look at one of the rpt files that would be amazing.

.RPT File:

Code: Select all

I will take a look at the RPT file. Is this for Arma 2 Altis Life, or Arma 3? Modded, or stock mission file?

It would be easier for me if you could provide me the mission pbo file(s) (server and client), if they are modified from the stock file in any way.

[Caliban55]

Looking at the RPT, you have some ...odd start-up paramaters . Some are contradicting each other, some make no sense.

Code: Select all

"arma3server.exe"  -config=servercfg\A3server.cfg -cfg=servercfg\Users\Administrator\Arma3Alpha.cfg -profiles=servercfg -port=2366 -enableHT -cpuCount=8 -mod=@extDB;@life_server -maxMem=7512 -noSound -exThreads=8 -nosplash server=server netlog=true

I would recommend changing it to the following:

Code: Select all

arma3server.exe  -config=servercfg\A3server.cfg -cfg=servercfg\Users\Administrator\Arma3Alpha.cfg -profiles=servercfg -port=2366 -enableHT -loadMissionToMemory -autoInit -mod=@extDB;@life_server;

EDIT:
Any way I can send it privately to you?

[Caliban55]

You can't send the files trough the forum here.

If you have a Teamspeak, I can try to catch you there (most likely on the weekend, due to different time zones), or you can try to contact me over our website, where the Teamspeak info is also available:
