Wrong path #9

Open gransabr opened 6 years ago

https://github.com/BatteryAcid/dayz-private-server-aws/wiki/2-dayz-server-configuration

See section: 4.10.

The path in this sentence is wrong:

Edit c:\steam_appid.txt, set it to 224580

correct path would be I think:

c:\arma2oa\steam_appid.txt

Great work on the guide by the way, big thank you!

Hello!
Yes that is an error, thanks for pointing it out. If you'd like, create a pull request and I'll approve it. Otherwise I'll get to it soon.

Glad the guide is helpful, I created it from notes that I took while actually setting it all up, so I'm sure I missed a few things. Please let me know if you have any other questions/comments.

Sorry, unfortunately I dont have git installed here at the moment. I have not found any other issues setting it all up. I will keep playing with it though and if I find anything useful I will make sure to report back.

A bit off topic, adding some tips on how you would efficiently handle database rollbacks, backups, etc would be welcome. This is my very first time with RDS and game servers in general so I have a long journey ahead of me.

Thank you!

Will do - Off the top of my head, you can configure RDS to take snapshot backups hourly/weekly? or whatever and then you should be able to restore to those points quite easily - have not tested this thoroughly.

I have made a manual snapshot in RDS and tried to restore it but it wanted to create a completely new instance and the default settings for it were not pre-configured to match the old instance. Feel free to try it if you will have a chance. Seems like an unnecessary workflow overhead unless I am missing something.
