How to make a server auto restart

[Quarterbreed]

sounds like you have your BE path wrong. As for adding it to your server.bat just add "start dayzbec.bat" before the executable.

man this sucks.. i cant get this working

 

[Quarterbreed]

is there any way someone could write the batch file for me.. my server is installed on C:\ArmA 2 Server and i installed BEC to C:\ServerTools

and the file that starts my server has these commands

@echo off
echo Starting MySQL database. Please wait 5-10 seconds.
start /MIN /D.\MySQL\ MySQL.bat
ping 127.0.0.1 -n 15 >NUL

Fix your BE path in your BEC config

point it to wherever your BEServer.dll file is

 

[Quarterbreed]

my BE config is set like this

BePath = C:\ArmA 2 Server\BattlEye

thats where the client and server dlls are

 

[beowolfschaefer]

then I don't know

 

[Quarterbreed]

well this sucks.. guess ill have to keep manually restarting

 

[Quarterbreed]

then I don't know

Thx for the help tho.. I dont know why i cant get it to work

 

[beowolfschaefer]

The problem might be that there are spaces in your BE path. sometimes batch files have problems with stuff like that

 

[Quarterbreed]

ok ill take away the spaces and try tomorrow.. thx for the help.. ill eventually figure it out

 

[Quarterbreed]

the bepath i was using was for arma battleeye, didnt know there was one in dayzcfg folder also..

How will i know if i set a auto restart correctly, wait until it pops up

 

[Quarterbreed]

Its working correctly, i copied someones and now it restarts every 4 hours

echo Executing pMain()
.\MySQL\bin\mysql --user=root --password=root --host=127.0.0.1 --port=3316 --database=hivemind --execute="call pMain()"
ping 127.0.0.1 -n 5 >NUL
echo Complete!
ping 127.0.0.1 -n 1 >NUL

echo Launching And Watching Server
start /wait .\Expansion\beta\arma2oaserver.exe -mod=@dayz;@hive -name=cfgdayz -config=cfgdayz\server.cfg -cfg=cfgdayz\arma2.cfg -profiles=cfgdayz -world=Chernarus -exThreads=0 -maxMem=1024
ping 127.0.0.1 -n 5 >NUL
echo Server has exited ... Restarting!
ping 127.0.0.1 -n 1 >NUL
cls
goto top

Paste all of that into a batch file (filename.bat) using notepad and save the batch file in your server root (should be in same directory as @START_SERVER.bat).

After you've done that, just double click the batch file and it will start your server and restart it if it crashes. If you want to shut your server down with out it restarting, exit the batch file.

How can I combine that with Pwnoz0r's @START-SERVER.bat?

Disregard. I figured it out.
