Some people seem to be having trouble setting up servers. So this will be a guide on how to correctly setup a Sahrani Server.
Things to remember:
Setup:
Our process is no different to any other map. Except for the fact that we DO NOT support packages like reality/stapo/pwnzor. They do not use our modified server pbo or have the correct changes in their MySQL procedures to support the map.
It is recommended to launch your client game with DayZCommander. It will launch the game correctly so that there are no errors.
Common Errors:
Things to remember:
- DO NOT USE ANY OTHER SERVER PACKAGE!
- Do not add mods until you have the server running first.
Setup:
- Patch your server to a minimum of 103419.
- Download the latest client and server files from here
- Extract All the required folders to your Arma2 OA Directory
(eg. C:\Games\ArmA2\Server-3\) - Extract the included dll's too.
- Create a new MySQL login with the account name "dayz"
- Execute the supplied SQL file to setup the table schema.
- Update your Hive.ini and config.cfg with login details etc. (You should customize your config name example config_1234567.cfg, otherwise it can be easily accessed by hackers.
- Create your launcher
Code:C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5\bin\mysql.exe --user=dayz --password=CHANGEME --host=localhost --port=3306 --database=hivemind --execute="call pMain()" start Expansion\beta\arma2oaserver.exe "-mod=Expansion\beta;Expansion\beta\Expansion" "-nosplash" "-cpuCount=1" "-name=smd_sahrani_a2" "-profiles=dayz_1.smd_sahrani_a2" "-cfg=dayz_1.smd_sahrani_a2\basic.cfg" "-config=dayz_1.smd_sahrani_a2\config_1234567.cfg" "-mod=@DayZ_Sahrani;@Hive-smd_sahrani_a2" "-world=smd_sahrani_a2" "-port=2402"
- Run your launcher.

Common Errors:
- Sahrani requires Arma 2 ~ Expansion\Beta ~ Expansion\Beta\Expansion. Without these the server and client will throw up errors on launch for missing addons.
- Trying to use Reality/Bliss/Stapo/Pwnzor Packages. They DO NOT WORK!
- The pMain() execution with MySQL is not working. If you use a different username for mysql you must update all of the MySQL procedures to match that username.
