[Bug]: Using Console command ./rustserver console shows error/misconfiguration

[SkyRonic12]

User story

As a bug, I want the bug to be looked over sometime, so that other people can have a better experience than I did.

Game

Rust

Linux distro

Ubuntu 22.04

Command

command: console

Further information

After running the console command "./rustserver console" and saying yes it loads the console and brings this up instead of showing the actual console. I can connect to the Rust server just fine, but I cannot access the console to give myself owner or edit my oxide plugins.

Relevant log output

Steps to reproduce

1. Start Rust Server
2. Use the Command "./rustserver console"
3. Then you get the issue

Forgot to add logs.. Here you go.

rustserver-game.log rustserver-script.log rustserver-console.log

Any fix? Same problem, server is working fine, but i cant get into console

[SivertGullbergHansen]

Im also stuck with the same problem 😄

[SivertGullbergHansen]

Seems to be related to some permission issues perhaps? I am able to run the server using the dedicated sh file in the server's directory (/home/rustserver/serverfiles/) like so:

rustserver@debian:~/serverfiles$ ./RustDedicated

Server boots fine. But when running with LinuxGSM I am stuck at the exact same point as you.

[SivertGullbergHansen]

Found the issue 😄

It's related to this part of the launch parameters:

-logfile /home/rustserver/log/server/rustserver-game.log

Seems removing it allows the server to continue running. I'm not familiar with LinuxGSM, is it possible to disable this parameter 🙂? Or perhaps it indeed is an issue with permissions?

[SivertGullbergHansen]

More investigation proves the log is indeed working and the server is starting 🙂 Simply nothing being printed when attaching to the server console.

Solution:

run the server and wait 20-30 minutes. Server should be up and running after a while. Tail this file:

tail -f /home/rustserver/log/server/rustserver-game.log

to follow the latest logs.
