Cant find "DedicatedServer" anywhere

[SuperNov4DZN]

Hi, I used docker-compose to create a server using the image provided here and after some trouble with permissions (running with wrong user) I was able to get the server up and running, I can connect fine and play fine.. the only problem is there I cant find the "config folder" anywhere, it looks like the server isnt even creating it, the folders that I have right now (inside of server-files) are the following:

"server-data" has nothing in it.

can anyone help me with that?

This is my core.env file right now:

WORLD_INDEX=0
WORLD_NAME=Core Keeper Server
WORLD_SEED=0
WORLD_MODE=0
GAME_ID=(I've set the game id to something 29 chars long)
DATA_PATH=
MAX_PLAYERS=10
DISCORD=1
DISCORD_HOOK=(myhook was here)
SEASON=-1
SERVER_IP=
SERVER_PORT=

Hi, I just looked on my running container:

There are the two main folders core-keeper-data and core-keeper-dedicated

• core-keeper-data \ This directory contains the configuration and the save games
• core-keeper-dedicated \ This directory contains the application (seems to be your screenshot)

I think the file you are looking for should be ~/core-keeper-data/ServerConfig.json

Uhm, this is inside the container, right? But wasn't it supposed to be "accessible" via the folder "Server-Data" that I created "locally" ? My folder structure is:

~/corekeeper_server/server-files ~/corekeeper_server/server-data ~/corekeeper_server/core.env ~/corekeeper_server/docker-compose.yml

Inside of docker-compose.yml I've set the volumes to:

- ~/corekeeper_server/server-files:/home/steam/core-keeper-dedicated
- ~/corekeeper_server/server-data:/home/steam/core-keeper-data

By doing that I thought my server config files would go to my server-data, the server-files work just like that, have I done something wrong?

Another strange thing, just looked at what was inside my container and I have nothing under core-keeper-data

[Micke90s]

Could you please try to set the line DATA_PATH= from your core.env to DATA_PATH=/home/steam/core-keeper-data.

Update: Should already be fixed with #28 - Fix may only work if environment variable is not present. 🤔 Could be the problem.

Your save games should be available under /home/steam/.config/Pugstorm/Core Keeper/DedicatedServer within the container.

I am facing the same issue. Anytime the container is restarted, all data is lost. It looks to be saving the data in

~/core-keeper-dedicated/CoreKeeperServer_Data

Uhmmm, got it.. I'll make a backup of this folder (since I already played in the server for almost 2 hours), set the env path and try again, question, do I need to build the whole thing again running docker-compose up or just restarting the container is enough?

[Makerblaker]

I set the DATA_PATH= in the env file, and it seems to work now.

-batchmode -logfile CoreKeeperServerLog.txt -world 0 -worldname Purple Drop Server -worldseed 0 -worldmode 0 -datapath /home/steam/core-keeper-data -maxplayers 10 -season -1

I set the DATA_PATH= in the env file, and it seems to work now.

-batchmode -logfile CoreKeeperServerLog.txt -world 0 -worldname Purple Drop Server -worldseed 0 -worldmode 0 -datapath /home/steam/core-keeper-data -maxplayers 10 -season -1

Okay, so, no need to compose again? Just a simple restart is enough?

Yes, you will. I would suggest connecting to the container and copying the ~/core-keeper-data/CoreKeeperServer_Data so you don't lose your save.

@SuperNov4DZN I think that you have to use docker-compose down and docker-compose up to set the environment variables. This will cause that the container is rebuild. Please backup your save games to the host and rebuild it.

Ok, thanks for the help! Appreciate it ♥️, I'll give it a try asap.

I just created a server without the DATA_PATH environment variable and worked as expected. So you are probably correct.

[SuperNov4DZN]

Okay, I did what @Micke90s told me to:

Changed core.env DATA_PATH:/home/steam/core-keeper-data

Then docker-compose down docker-compose up -d

Waited for a few seconds, got the notification on discord with the GameID, and after checking I now have everything on the right place, I have access to the server config files both on host/server-data and container/core-keeper-data

Worked like a charm, again, thanks for the help everyone, I'll be closing this issue.
