Sounds great! Remember to apply in this group: You won't be able to upload the configuration file otherwise ?
-
Clever! Didn't know that could be used in configuration files.

Ah, I missed that. I know I had a similar issue in the past, but unfortunately I can't remember the solution. Maybe @LFA can help?

View File [Official] Minecraft (Automatic Java Version - Multiple Mods) Read before installing To automatically update Minecraft, Spigot, Craftbukkit and Paper, use the following module: Installation Download the config Go to TCAdmin > System > Settings > Game & Voice Hosting > Game & Other Voice Servers > Import Save the config as a new config or chose "Overwrite existing config" if you which to overwrite your current Minecraft config. Remember to select Minecraft in the 'Update Game' field if you do Leave all other settings Features Java is bundled with the config (Adoptium 8, 11, 16, 17 and 21) Backup/Restore worlds Spigot, Craftbukkit, Paper and Tuinity included as mods For modpacks, please use "Custom Mods" module (can be configured from the "Custom Mods" section in the Minecraft config) Support for multiple Java versions Before start, TCAdmin will try to determine the required version of Java If you have manually installed the different Java versions and added the path to java.exe (or java on Linux) to the environment variable as JAVA8, JAVA11, JAVA16, JAVA17 and JAVA21 TCAdmin will not include Java binaries with the files. It will instead use the system-installed versions If no environment variables for Java is detected, Java binaries are downloaded into the "java" directory on the server (these gets updated automatically once per week via a scheduled task) For existing services where no "java" folder is found and where no environment variable exists, TCAdmin will use the default "java" command as previously If TCAdmin is not able to detect the required Java version, it will default to Java 11. Client can manually specify a version they want to use. In this case, TCAdmin will not try to detect the required version. Unlimited players by default (can be changed through Query Monitoring > Slot Detection) Users can use their own .jar files Easy configuration through configuration editor Use system-installed Java versions instead of bundling Java with the game service (recommended) Download the versions of Java you want (this config supports Java 8, Java 11, Java 16 and Java 17). Make sure they are installed in different directories. If you want to use Temurin from Adoptium, you can follow these guides: https://adoptium.net/installation After installation, you will need to setup environment variables that point to each Java version Windows: Open 'Run' and enter this: rundll32.exe sysdm.cpl,EditEnvironmentVariables Under 'System variables' create one variable for each version of Java. Make sure to name them as JAVA8, JAVA11, JAVA16, JAVA17 and JAVA21 - it's important The "Variable Value" field should point to the specific version's java.exe file Save the variables Linux: Open the file /home/tcadmin/Monitor/tcadmin-config Create a new line consisting of export JAVA<version>="/path/to/java" for each version of Java you want to use Example: export JAVA8="/opt/java8/bin/java" export JAVA11="/opt/java11/bin/java" export JAVA16="/opt/java16/bin/java" export JAVA17="/opt/java17/bin/java" export JAVA21="/opt/java21/bin/java" Save the file Make sure to restart both the TCAdmin2 Monitor and TCAdmin2 Service Manager after setting the environment variables. TCAdmin will not be able to recognise the variables if you don't restart. If you're having any issues, try restarting the system. Suggestions are appreciated. Known issues: Java download fails on some Linux distributions. If you're having this issue, please contact me. I will probably need access to your TCAdmin installation to resolve this matter.

Hi @Gotteshand! I don't know of a variable called UserDirectory. Have you tried with $[Service.RootDirectory] or $[Service.WorkingDirectory] instead?
-
Have you tried starting the config manually? See this: https://help.tcadmin.com/Troubleshooting_Game_and_Voice_Services#Troubleshooting_.28Linux.29 It should allow you to see why it's not starting.

In my opinion, the default theme is just more clean. The only thing the two themes share is that they're both light themes - but the default is just so pleasing to the eyes
-
@ucjohnit only requires very little CSS. .ipsaXenTheme_Dark #ipsLayout_header > header { background: #0c0c0c !important; }

Are you referring to these? A new wiki will not solve that ?
-
Did you remember to create the MySQL user and database? Also remembered to give the user access to the database? Try posting the contents of your C:\Program Files\TCAdmin\Logs\Monitor\console.log here.

windows/linux ARK: Survival Evolved (Supports Clusters)
Dennis replied to Dennis's topic in Game Config Files
No, this will only create one database. You could customize the script to create multiple, but there's no reason to. By using different table prefixes, you can work around having access to only one database. -
The only issue with having everything the same place is that there is a single point of failure. What is the wiki system for Invision? Any documentation on it? Also, as I stated before, MediaWiki works just fine and has been working for years. It's just due for a visual makeover. There are a few modern themes that could be applied.
-
Just take a backup before doing anything. All of your data for TCAdmin exists in that MySQL database. As long as you create a backup, there's nothing to worry - you can always import the database again. But be absolutely certain that you have a working backup.

Hi! It seems like WampServer will not let you install without also installing a MySQL/MariaDB server. With XAMPP, you will however be able to install without installing MySQL also. You can also use the built-in IIS webserver in Windows Server. Your own suggestion about importing the TCAdmin database into the MySQL server delivered by Wamp will also work just fine.
-
I kind of agree. MediaWiki (the software currently being used) is not my favorite. There are other alternatives (wiki.js for example). If you have any other alternatives, please let me know. That being said, MediaWiki works just fine. The UI is not great, but it is the layout that most people associate with a wiki. IIRC, the help page once ran on another theme.

I get what you're trying to say. Some of the config files do have scripts that will delete contents of certain folders, and an update could possibly cause deletion of incorrect files (though it's very unlikely). It's a lot easier for the user to remove/disable unwanted features before using the config than it is to setup new custom scripts. I'll see if I can find a solution that fits most people ? Do note that using any kind of software/configuration from the forum is at your own risk. While it is very doubtful that anything would break, you should always test before using anything in production.

windows/linux ARK: Survival Evolved (Supports Clusters)
Dennis replied to Dennis's topic in Game Config Files
Yes, it allows for automatic creation (during service setup) and deletion (after service is deleted) of a MySQL database for every TCAdmin server. Instead of creating it for each game, we has it setup as a global script ? -
View File ARK: Survival Evolved (Supports Clusters) Read before upgrading from version 1.x to 2.x! Do not change the "Run As" user. This config depends heavily on the new "Run As Unique operating system user for each service" setting. If you have existing services, go to System > Settings > Game Tools > Verify/repair game accounts. Select 'Update Run As User' and all of the servers that you're using for ARK hosting. Existing services will not have the "ClusterPath" variable set. If they are started with clustering enabled, an error will show, telling the user to execute a script that will set the "ClusterPath". This is only required once for new services. Prerequisites TCAdmin version 2.0.161.0 or later 'screen' if you're on Linux Installing screen Debian/Ubuntu: $ apt install screen RHEL/CentOS/Fedora: $ yum install screen Installation Download the config Go to TCAdmin > System > Settings > Game & Voice Hosting > Game & Other Voice Servers > Import Save the config as a new config or chose "Overwrite existing config" if you which to overwrite your current ARK config. Remember to select ARK in the 'Update Game' field if you do Leave all other settings Features Steam Workshop installer/updater/uninstaller (using these scripts) Shut down properly using custom script with rcon commands Easy configuration of each service using variables and configuration editor Predefined command line for each official map up to Crystal Isles Support for custom maps Support for clustering Wipe server (wipe everything in ShooterGame/Saved/SavedArks) Reset cluster Restore backups How do I setup a cluster? You must have at least 2 servers to configure a cluster. Go to each server's command line Create a new custom command line Set 'Cluster ID' When you set Cluster ID, the Cluster Path will automatically get set. On Windows, it's set to X:\Users\TCAGame_<TCAdminUserName>. On Linux, it's set to /home/tcagame_<tcadminusername>. Submitter Dennis Submitted 3/2/2020 Category Game Configs

The color pattern couldn't possibly get any worse. Without navigating away from this page, I see 3 different shades of green and 4 shades of blue. Adding to that, some text are hard to read. Either dark text on dark background or light text on a light background. The author pane color doesn't match anything on the website Text in the menu shouldn't be green - would look best as white Overuse of box-shadow Mostly, it all comes down to colors - they're really poor and makes the theme look bad. Having different colors for everything is just a very bad idea for design. It also seems like the default theme has seen some changes, unfortunately. It looked better when it was 100% default.
-
What config are you using? Are you able to see any log files in Squad/Saved/Logs?
-
The default theme is the best of the two currently available. There are too many design flaws with the 'TCadmin_2020' theme. The obvious answer for this poll is both - there's really no reason to just go with one if it's possible to get both ?
-
There's no plan on removing the forums for TCAdmin version 1.

Before I start adding a bunch of configs, I'd like to know what you guys are looking for. I'd mostly be providing configs for Windows, but Linux configs are usually just a matter of changing the executable. Basic configs: Basic config files has nothing more than needed to run the server. This config will work out of the box and can be customized to your liking. Things such as custom scripts, variables and configuration editors will not be included, unless they're needed to run the game server. Advanced configs: Advanced configs are configs with configuration editors setup, custom scripts for different stuff and generally a better idea - but they most likely require you to install third-party software such as Python and modules for Python. Some of these configs will also provide support for mods, but the mod files will need to be installed by yourself as we cannot redistribute most of them. Somewhere in between: Configs with no custom scripts, but with variables and configuration editors configured. I'll only be providing configs for TCAdmin v2. Let me know what you think.
