Hi guys, question for anyone that is familiar with DayZ modding. I am having some trouble with getting the Namalsk mod in particular to load. I have been able to successfully load another mod (GoreZ) but Namalsk is a slightly different beast as it is a different map/mission.

The issue

When I change "template" in the Dayz class within dayzserver/serverfiles/cfg/dayzserver.server.cfg:116 from "dayZOffline.chernarusplus" to "regular.namalsk", the server cannot boot. I see in the logs "No world with name namalsk" which you can see at dayzserver/log/console/dayzserver-console.log:1577

What I have done so far

Followed @PandaStudiosSWE's advice on DayZ - Mods - Profile folder? #3899 and learned how to configure the startparameters and specify the mods folder.
Successfully installed the GoreZ mod
From their default configs, I have modified the following files:

dayzserver/lgsm/config-lgsm/dayzserver/dayzsever.cfg (added startparameters)
dayzserver/serverfiles/cfg/dayzserver.server.cfg (configured server to use regular.namalsk)
dayzserver/serverfiles/profiles (just created the dir, it was autopopulated with stuff)
dayzserver/serverfiles/keys (added keys from mods)
dayzserver/serverfiles/mods (create dir and put mods in there)
dayzserver/serverfiles/mpmissions (added regular.namalsk)

Here is my dayzserver setup in full so you can look for yourselves. Any advice is appreciated

Here is just the log

As suggested by @JayC1337 here it is necessary to rename all files and folders of the mods to use only lowercase letters.

Old DayZ modding problem which exists since the Arma 2 mod: You have to change every file and folder to lowercase in your mod directory. Easiest way: apt install rename. You can rename files inside a folder with rename 'y/A-Z/a-z/' *

Unfortunately, even after renaming the files, my client still freezes on connecting to the server with the same mods selected that are used on the server. Connecting to other Experimental Servers running Namalsk works fine.
I get some alarming server logs at the end of server startup:

19:22:18 [Script] scripts/3_Game/undergroundarealoader.c:83 | SpawnAllTriggerCarriers | [WARNING] :: [UndergroundAreaLoader GetData()] :: file not found in MISSION folder, your path is $mission:cfgundergroundtriggers.json Attempting DATA folder

19:22:18 Mission script has no main function, player connect will stay disabled!

Especially Mission script has no main function tells me there is still something very wrong. The server log is attached. Any ideas?

Can you post your dayzserver.cfg in ~/lgsm/config-lgsm/dayzserver where you add the mods? I had to write it like this because the ; was interpreted wrong: mods="2405175615';'1559212036';'1582756848';'2865478912"

I was using:

startparameters="-ip=${ip} -port=${port} -config=${servercfgfullpath} -profiles=profiles '-mod=mods/@NamalskSurvival;mods/@NamalskIsland;' -limitFPS=60 -dologs -adminlog -freezeCheck"

now I tried your syntax:

mods="mods/@NamalskSurvival';'mods/@NamalskIsland"
startparameters="-ip=${ip} -port=${port} -config=${servercfgfullpath} -profiles=profiles -mod=${mods} -limitFPS=60 -dologs -adminlog -freezeCheck"

I also tried rename the mod folders to their workshop id and moving them to /serverfiles, and used mods="2289461232';'2289456201" but all produces the same result.

Going to test it on my server later to see if I can reproduce it. Just to be sure: Did you edit your ~/Serverfiles/cfg/dayzserver.server.cfg at the bottom to call the Namalsk mission file?

OK, installed the server and its working. Did not test via client as i'm still in bed LUL.
Here is what i did:

Created a new user
Installed via ./dayzserver install
Downloaded Namalsk Island via steamcmd: workshop_download_item 221100 2289456201
Downloaded Namalsk Survival via steamcmd: workshop_download_item 221100 2289461232
Moved Namalsk Island to serverfiles: mv /home/namalsk/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/workshop/content/221100/2289456201 serverfiles/
Moved Namalsk Survival to serverfiles: mv /home/namalsk/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/workshop/content/221100/2289461232 serverfiles/
Renamed containing files and folders in both mod folders to lower case: rename 'y/A-Z/a-z/' *
moved keys from Namlask files to serverfiles/keys directory
moved mpmission directory from 2289461232/extras/regular to serverfiles/mpmissions
edited serverfiles/cfg/dayzserver.server.cfg at the bottom to load correct namalsk mission file:

// Mission to load on server startup. <MissionName>.<TerrainName>
class Missions
{
    class DayZ
    {
        template="regular.namalsk";
    };
};

Edited /home/namalsk/lgsm/config-lgsm/dayzserver/dayzserver.cfg to following content:

##################################
####### Instance Settings ########
##################################
# PLACE INSTANCE SETTINGS HERE
## These settings will apply to a specific instance.
mods="2289456201';'2289461232"

Let me know if this helps.

Thank you so much for your detailed description and your patience. I simply did not know I have to move the mission files to mpmission folder, I assumed it would read it from the mod folder directly.

Moving namalsk to the mpmission folder solved all remaining problems, all seems to be working prefectly now.

Great! No problem, hosting DayZ can be painful if you are new to it. If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Hello bro, i had the same problem and fixed it
You edit your file ''start''
make sure you have a - before mod... like this
the line start must be this
start "DayZ Server" /min "DayZServer_x64.exe" -config=%serverConfig% -port=%serverPort% "-profiles=config" "-mod=@namalsk Island;@namalsk Survival" -cpuCount=%serverCPU% -dologs -adminlog -netlog -freezecheck

TOTAL is
@echo off
:start
::Server name (This is just for the bat file)
set serverName=SSG Namalsk Test Server
::Server files location
set serverLocation="G:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\DayZServer"
::Server Port
set serverPort=2302
::Server config
set serverConfig=serverDZ.cfg
::Logical CPU cores to use (Equal or less than available)
set serverCPU=2
::Sets title for terminal (DONT edit)
title %serverName% batch
::DayZServer location (DONT edit)
cd "%serverLocation%"
echo (%time%) %serverName% started.
::Launch parameters (edit end: -config=|-port=|-profiles=|-doLogs|-adminLog|-netLog|-freezeCheck|-filePatching|-BEpath=|-cpuCount=)
start "DayZ Server" /min "DayZServer_x64.exe" -config=%serverConfig% -port=%serverPort% "-profiles=config" "-mod=@namalsk Island;@namalsk Survival" -cpuCount=%serverCPU% -dologs -adminlog -netlog -freezecheck
::Time in seconds before kill server process (14400 = 4 hours)
timeout 14390
taskkill /im DayZServer_x64.exe /F
::Time in seconds to wait before..
timeout 10
::Go back to the top and repeat the whole cycle again
goto start

(you change location folder and server name but keep the rest as it is for the mods first to see, and then edit for more mod, gl)

This is Linux Game Server, you're running windows. you're on the wrong discussion thread.

also to avoid confusion when illustrating code, wrap all code in three backticks: https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/writing-on-github/getting-started-with-writing-and-formatting-on-github/basic-writing-and-formatting-syntax#quoting-code
