I have purchased a VPS with vps.net and have a console using CentOS. How would I go about putting up a server? As I have no experience with linux..

You might want to look at the Linux Talk sub forum its near the bottom of this page.

Is CentOS linux? Because i tried using wget command to download byond to the server, but it says wget is not a command...
| |
You'll need install wget first..
I believe it's yum -y install wget Yes centos is Linux you stated that in your first post ;) | |
I installed byond, but when I try to verify I get this: [root@instant4692 ~]# DreamDaemon --version
-bash: /usr/local/bin/DreamDaemon: /lib/ld-linux.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory | |
Are you on 64bit? You'll need the 32 bit libraries if so.
| |
Yes, I am. Mind telling me how to retrieve 32 bit libraries?
EDIT: I have dug up a possible solution, only to change my problem. [root@instant4692 ~]# DreamDaemon --version DreamDaemon: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I performed the following: yum install glibc.i686 yum install glibc-devel.i686 I'm on CentOS V 6.4 if it helps. | |
Try
yum install libstdc++.i686 As I believe they don't come with glibc | |
DreamDaemon: error while loading shared libraries: libbyond.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
It changed from libstdc++.so.6 to just plain old libbyond.so | |
now you need to do the source command
(you get it when you do make here or make install ) | |
I got my server up and running, but whenever I close out of putty, the dreamdaemon closes. Even with the ampersand at the end.
I'm using this: DreamDaemon baystation12.dmb 6113 -trusted -logself & | |
Just create a script
#!/bin/sh #or #!bin/bash | |
Uh, I'm clueless as to how to create a script..
| |
You should read up on how to use CentOS or choose a low entry Linux dist, Ubuntu is simple.
Why CentOS anyway? not like it matters all that much. You'll want to create that in your home directory, use your favourite terminal editor, nano? vi? Nano is great simple yum -y install nano cd ~ nano start_dd.sh Paste #!/bin/sh #or #!bin/bash DreamDaemon baystation12.dmb 6113 -trusted -logself & Ctrl+X Yes Once closed you are back at your home directory. ls to see files ls -la to see files permissions + more chmod +x start_dd.sh run the script ./start_dd.sh | |
I created the script and everything, but when i get to ./start_dd.sh i get this:
[root@instant4692 ~]# ./start_dd.sh /bin/sh: #or #bin/bash: No such file or directory | |
Choose one of the two I provided don't copy and paste
| |
Ohhh ok. I used #!/bin/sh
DreamDaemon baystation12.dmb 6113 -trusted -logself & And it worked, but I need to point it to the correct directory, or else I get this: [root@instant4692 ~]# DreamDaemon: cannot open file baystation12.dmb. How do I point it to: /root/APOC/baystation12.dmb | |
Modify the DD command..
DreamDaemon /root/APOC/baystation12.dmb 6113 -trusted -logself & | |
Works great! I can now close putty and server stays up :D thank you so much for being helpful and patient towards my noobness
