What is the contents of your redis.conf ?

[thompson]

bind 127.0.0.1

maxmemory 4gb

save 900 1

save 300 10

save 60 1000

requirepass Changeme9832

[thompson]

like i said i just put the files in the DB folder without ever changing them?

You need to change the password so it matches across all files. Otherwise it won't work.

You actually might to want to read the readme how to install a server. You need to personalize it, and put proper passwords in.

Which files contains the passwords? My server won't save anything to DB actually....

I've changed the pass to fit with the rcon one.

 

But redis stay at :

[4116] 06 Dec 14:09:28.398 # Server started, Redis version 2.8.12
[4116] 06 Dec 14:09:28.398 * The server is now ready to accept connections on port 6379

Do I need to open 6379 port ? Many thanks for your help.

The password you enter in redis.conf has to match in EpochServer, read the INSTALL.txt where it's all explained.

 

redis.conf :

bind 127.0.0.1
maxmemory 4gb
save 900 1
save 300 10
save 60 1000
requirepass foobared

 

 

EpochServer :

[Redis]
IP = 127.0.0.1
Port = 6379
DB = 0
Password = foobared

Where can I find the INSTALL.txt

Where can I find the INSTALL.txt

Inside the server files folder

This should be a manual, is indeed a little skimpy.

Hi,

 

 

Epoch server install guide:

 

 

A3 EPOCH Server Install Guide

Prerequisites:

Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40784

== INSTALL ==

1. Remove any previous @Epoch folders and Install A3 Epoch client files (@Epoch) into Arma3 root directory.
2. Remove any previous @EpochHive folder and copy all server files from zip into Arma3 root directory.
3. Open "DB" folder and start redis-server.exe with the parameter "redis.conf" or use start-redis.cmd. (Only one redis instance is needed per box, All servers connecting to the same redis will share character data by default.)
4. Open @EpochHive folder and edit EpochServer.ini BattlEyePath to match your server path to Battleye.
5. If running multiple servers on the same box, open "@EpochHive" folder and edit the "EpochServer.ini" setting "InstanceID" to a unique string for each A3 Epoch server.
6. Open "SC" folder and edit the config.cfg server name, password, etc.
7. Open the SC/Battleye folder and rename example-BEServer.cfg to BEServer.cfg and change the RConPassword.
7. Look at the "start-A3-cmd-line-example.txt" file for an example command line for starting your server.

== NOTES ==

* As of 0.2.5 you must use BEC (http://ibattle.org/) with watchdog plugin (included in BEC folder) if you are using our built-in Anti-Hack and Admin Panel.
* You should use a service restarter (like firedaemon) to keep the redis server and Arma 3 server running.
* A3 Server should be restarted every 4 hours. A good option ssing BEC http://ibattle.org/scheduler and the #shutdown rcon command works well. (Scheduler Example: https://gist.github.com/vbawol/38b2f57d89c2c36106b3)
* The log rotator found in tools should only need one path to Arma 3 changed and should be ran just before the Arma 3 server starts. (firedeamon Pre/post service: Before Event)
* It is recommended that you use ASM https://github.com/fred41/ASMto monitor your server performance.
* Go to http://epochmod.com/forum/for more help if needed.

Make sure you are editing the correct file, it is located in your servers root directory here: /@EpochHive/EpochServer.ini

 

The redis DB password must match the password in the EpochServer.ini

 

You also need to run start-redis.cmd to be sure the DB is online and then just join your server and let it load for a few minutes, it takes longer the first time.

just putting it out there, docker images would make all this hassle disappear.
