Dedicated Servers Not responding

[Badass1982]

I managed to fix my issues it seems to have been related to mods I had installed (isn't it always lol) removed the mods and the servers started working great again!

 

Thx

As for the instance names I believe I had to edit the batch file to make sure all the switches were entered correctly.

Hello,

I use to run DCS Dedicated Open beta server, but since a month or so, it crahes every time i launch it.

Yesterday i uninstalled it and made a new install, deleting everything from the previous install.

So starting with a "brand new" install, i launched it and this time the server is not starting.

As you can see from the screenshot attached to this, I have the DCS Dedicated OB server window, Local Web GUI up and running. Once connected, there is no way to make it run.

In addition to that, in the task manager window, the process for DCS is showing me CPU load to 0%.

 

I'm not an expert and i will appreciate some help please.

Log attached

It's perfectly normal that the process uses 0% of the CPU as long as it's not running any mission. I get the same result.

And according to your log, your server is starting as it should. What does happen when you click the "Start" button? Are you aware your server is not up-to-date? Its version is DCS/2.7.15.25026. It should be 2.7.15.26783 (DCS versions).

When I compare our logs, I see you may have an issue with TCP port 8088. This is what I get:

2022-06-20 21:12:26.642 INFO    NET: TCP external 90.0.147.72:8088 is redirected to internal 192.168.1.20:8088

And this is what you get:

Maybe your TCP port 8088 is already in use.

By the way, the server is not using your Internet address, but the local one. Is that normal? Are you using a proxy?

Nothing happens when i click Start Button.

As you mentioned this is not the lastest version, and i'm upgrading it ATM.

I'm checking for port 8088, where it can be used other than on the server....

EDIT: Port was the actual problem!

Thank you for helping me

Hello,

I'm not sure if this thread is active but I'm lost on similar situation as last person.

Before the 2.9 update I was able to run a dedicated server just fine being able to connect/control the server via webgui, however when updated, the server appears to be running given that the window is open, but webgui it couldnt detect the server.  I've attached the logs

P.S. I'm not experienced...

EDIT: the issue was solved, im not sure how I fixed it.
I used Skatezilla's program to manage my server and that fixed the issue
