ARK + Debian Connecting

[LigerXT5]

A few coworkers asked if I could run a private ARK server for them a few days ago. I've been spending the last few days troubleshooting it to start and run. As far as I can tell, it runs and status shows it's good to go.
However, we cannot connect to it.
I've added it to the iptables and checked to make sure it was there, how ever, still nothing.
As the game is still in alpha, there isn't a lot showing up in the logs or on screen at start to verify what is actually going on.

I'm running on a quad core, 6GB, Debian Wheezy, VPS.

The script I'm using to help manage is: https://github.com/FezVrasta/ark-server-tools

Try booting up the server without any "ark tools" script. The server is easy enough to install and configure without anything like that.

I've tried: adding firewall rules, turning off firewall, using raw server commands, and using arkmanager. I cannot get my ark server to be visible to the public.

See https://github.com/FezVrasta/ark-server-tools/issues/77 for detailed logs

Have you tried running this command from the install directory?

Code: Select all

./ShooterGameServer TheIsland?listen?SessionName=YourLinuxSessionName?ServerAdminPassword=whateveradminpass -server -log

I don't have access to a Debian machine atm, or I could test further with you.

Yep, that's the guide I followed first. Running that standalone command doesn't work either

Turned out I did not have enough memory in the server
