Doesn't warn before updating

[noodohs]

I think I've got everything running pretty well now, but the server does not warn us before kicking us off for updates. Not always a huge deal, but sometimes we are in the middle of fighting an alpha wyvern in the air...

I have the update command specified via cron:

0 /usr/local/bin/arkmanager update --update-mods --warn --safe

I modified that slightly from what using the install-cronjob command does, thinking that maybe removing @all and --cronjob would help (I only run one instance anyway), but it still does not give any warning. In my config, I have the following:

msgWarnUpdateMinutes="This ARK server will shutdown for an update in %d minutes" msgWarnUpdateSeconds="This ARK server will shutdown for an update in %d seconds" msgWarnRestartMinutes="This ARK server will shutdown for a restart in %d minutes" msgWarnRestartSeconds="This ARK server will shutdown for a restart in %d seconds" msgWarnShutdownMinutes="This ARK server will shutdown in %d minutes" msgWarnShutdownSeconds="This ARK server will shutdown in %d seconds" msgWarnCancelled="Restart cancelled by player request"

Am I doing something wrong? I would, ideally, like to also have it wait until everyone has signed off before doing the restart, but at least actually warning us would be a good start.

Please try removing the --safe option.

Will try that. I had added that so that we wouldn't have to worry about being kicked backward in time, but i guess if we are all signed off it might be fine.

If you are concerned, you can use --saveworld, which will explicitly save the world to disk before restarting (rather than relying on a graceful shutdown saving the world).

I have the same problem and:

An here its crashing. If the crontab starts for update it just stop the server without warning. -.- /15 * /usr/local/bin/arkmanager update --warn --saveworld --update-mods @blueark

I cant find a solution. Tool is up to date. All other commands working so far. Please help...

@Aylja your issue is different to that of the OP.

If you look at the output, it is trying to warn, but it looks almost as if you are having the same problem as #849, where the server is binding only to the external IP address.

What are the contents of the arkserver.log file (with any sensitive data masked out), from the last start line to the end?

i continue in #849
