[Rpt error help]

I had this pop up when installing a mod (forget which 1). Deleting the " };" from line 107 stopped the error for me. Im not a scripter but it's worth a shot.

i had not seen this post before i posted mine. this is easy to check using notepad++ because if you click,on one } it will highlight the matching brace. so just check them and make sure the correct brace is highlighted

[Problem with databaseMySql.dll]

Download the epoch files again and install the dll files into your root folder. .. its probably just corrupted.

[HELP with BEC]

You are not using a server host, but are on your own PC?  If so then you need a BATCH file to stop the server, stop BEC, start the server, start BEC.  The BEC scheduler.xml will execute the batch file at 4 hours.

Here are a few links to posts that go over this already

http://opendayz.net/threads/server-launch-bat-file-and-restart-system-tutorial.11006/

http://opendayz.net/threads/bec-problems.21396/#post-115402

and of course this has already been asked on this website  

 

This is the batch file to stop and start the server and BEC .. 

@echo off
echo.
echo KILL arma2oaserver.exe
taskkill /im arma2oaserver.exe
echo.
echo Kill Bec.exe
taskkill /im bec.exe

timeout 10

echo.
echo Starting Dayz Server
:: start the server..
cd c:\arma2oaserver
start "" "@START_SERVER.bat"
echo.
echo Starting Bec
timeout 10
:: start bec

cd c:\arma2oaserver\bec
start "" "bec.exe" -f Config.cfg
echo.
echo Server Started 


@exit

You are going to enable BEC and the scheduler.xml .. directions are at ibattle.org

You will want a job that looks SIMILIAR to this, .. this is for an old version of BEC so dont copy exactly

<job id="4">
        <time>073000</time>
        <delay>000000</delay>
        <day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day>
        <loop>0</loop> 
        <cmd>c:\arma2oaserver\restart.bat</cmd>   
        <cmdtype>1</cmdtype>
    </job>

[What map do you like the best for Epoch?]

I find Napf and Saurland to be lacking .. NOTHING is as detailed as Chernarus, it looks as if people actually live there.   But my personal favorites are Takistan and Lingor ... I would vote for Takistan because its included in Arma and doesnt need a download like Lingor.

[Heli Taxi Script]

http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=12141 Here is a script on armaholic you can try to implement and request help when you get stuck.  

As for making the heli land, setwaypointtype "getout"  https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/setWaypointTypeand the heli will drop to 5m or so and wait for you to jump out before it proceeds to the next waypoint.  If you want it to fully land right there, you can shut off the engines.

 have you made writer.pl executable?

[Rpt error help]

the undefined variable _previous is because the line it is set to a value is in error

_previous = str(_object getVariable["lastInventory",[]]);

 

So it is getting the "lastinventory" variable from the object and should be inserting an empty array [] if that variable does not exist.  So _previous SHOULD either be inventory or [] .    To see what is happening with that value, insert this line of code and then run the server and see what your arma2oaserver.rpt log says ... 

diag_log format["----------- _PREVIOUS = %1 -----------------",_previous];

right below where _previous is defined .. so on line 13

 

_object_inventory = {
	private["_inventory","_previous","_key"];
		_inventory = [
			getWeaponCargo _object,
			getMagazineCargo _object,
			getBackpackCargo _object
			/*ZSC*/
			, _object getVariable["bankMoney",0]
			/*ZSC*/
		];
		_previous = str(_object getVariable["lastInventory",[]]);

		if (str(_inventory) != _previous) then {
			_object setVariable["lastInventory",_inventory];
			if (_objectID == "0") then {
				_key = format["CHILD:309:%1:%2:",_uid,_inventory];
			} else {
				_key = format["CHILD:303:%1:%2:",_objectID,_inventory];
			};
			//diag_log ("HIVE: WRITE: "+ str(_key));
			_key call server_hiveWrite;
		};
};

[[In Dev] Public Source - Custom Launcher for your Servers]

this person dropped off the site in October so apparently never finished it.   I DO have a finished launcher which will automatically start arma2 and join the server ... but the servers IP is hard coded into the program.   Soon .. someday soon .. I will work on allowing multiple servers enabled by a config file so its configurable by the server owner before distributing the package.
