Trying to install Altis Life 4.0.2 with extDB2 but having trouble.

[droidmahn]

Hey everyone!

So the issue I'm having is my install of extDB2 wont load at all. So I have no logs to go by other than RPT. (http://pastebin.com/P3n2fzMU)

But players who connect get "setting up client, please wait" however if they respawn they can get in game but they are never written to the database. As far as I can tell all my cfg files are set up correctly and the database is populated with tables. Been working on it non stop for 3 days and have made no headroom. Same exact issues arise when using a linux host. Any help would be appreciated!

This is most likely a problem with the connection between the game server and the database server.

Did you check that the configuration files are correct and all permission requirements for the database user are met?
Did you use the latest, default builds for Altis Life and extDB2 (not something that you modified, or files that you grabbed from some other server), which you can get here:
https://github.com/TAWTonic/Altis-Life/releases
https://github.com/Torndeco/extDB2/releases

extDB2 also offers a debug build try that for a more comprehensive output.

I would not recommend to use a 3rd party launcher like TADST, start the server directly through the arma3server.exe with all configuration files in place.

Your RPT file also shows a warning error in line 519 about a life_server init.sqf not found. That is usually critical, check your file structure.

Everything is configured correctly and for the time being I am using the root database user. All my files are the latest default builds and the debug build also provides no logfile.

Please try to start the server directly and not using TADST. Also start the server with the start up paramter:

Code: Select all

-autoInit

Also check the error with the init.sqf from line 519.
