BEC Issues - "Waiting for server startup"

[ZEULU]

Hey guys,

 

So I have an issue with BEC (Battleye.Extended.Controls), after hours of searching, reinstalling and researching I still haven't solved my issue. As far as I can tell I am setting everything up correctly, just to actually get it running, just a basic start .bat for BEC. Every time I run my .bat to run BEC it stats then sits at "Waiting for server startup" for 30 seconds then closes. I know the server is running, I can see it in processes and I am not blind it's in the task bar. If you need anymore files I will be active and post them as fast as I can.

 

My BEC config.cfg:

# This config file is only provided as an example file.
# Edit it to sute your needs.
# For more info on how to edit this file. use the Readme.txt file or visit http://www.ibattle.org/install-and-configure

Im having this same issue, Bump

[Indiculous]

RPT?

[Namindu]

try running BEC with "--dsc", I had to do that to 2 of my 7 servers.

[Uro]

have you added firewall rules for bec?

[Brockie]

try using a simple config like:

[Bec]
Ip = 127.0.0.1
Port = 2302
BePath = C:\epoch1\BattlEye
Admins = Admins.xml
Commands = Commands.xml

[Misc]
Timeout = 60
ConsoleHeight	= 45
ConsoleWidth	= 165
AsciiNickOnly = False
MinPlayerNameLength	= 3
Scheduler = Scheduler.xml
ChatChannelFiles = true

instead of using the example file.

 

 

"BePath = C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\arma2operationarrowhead\MODS\1.0.4.2a\instance_11_Chernarus\Battleye"

 

you can't have spaces in your bepath and this might be your issue.

 

i recommend move the server to the c:\ and edit bepath
