@hofq on what platform do you run Gmod?
Are you sure that your binaries are up to date? If you are running the container on Unraid make sure that you are using the real file path (/mnt/cache/...
or /mnt/diskX/...
) instead of the FUSE file path (/mnt/user/...
).
EDIT: is there a crash or is it restarting? If not the server seems to be running.
instead of the FUSE file path (/mnt/user/...).
okay, so i am currently using the fuse path for steamcmd, but have selected the real path for the gameserver.
Is there a way to see if the server is running successfully/ if it is failing on some point? the Terminal does not Restart, so i see the message in the scr on top forever. (I've left it that way over night.)
Edit: i'm on Unraid. my container runs your Gmod Template on Unraid.
so i am currently using the fuse path for steamcmd
This should be no issue, since steamcmd
will/should always work on the FUSE path, only the game files have to be on the real path.
Have you yet tried to add the Gmod server in the Steam Server Browser (View -> Server Browser -> Favorites -> Add -> enter your LANIP:PORT
-> and press Refresh twice).
I'm not sure if Gmod has some additional logs since I've put this together a long time ago but I don't think so. I have now also tried it and without changing anything in the template it shows just up fine in the Steam Server Browser and I can connect to it fine.
No, sadly it does not show up. Just the following message get's displayed:
same in Gmod and with the direct connect link (steam://connect/IP:PORT)
On what Unraid version are you?
6.11.5
Did you change any of the port settings or something else in the template? Do you try it with your local IP or your public IP? I even can see it in the LAN tab. Do you maybe have some weird network configuration of some sort with VLANs or anything like that?
Here is the log from the first start and a few screenshots: gmod.txt
no, i have not.

<Overview>This Docker will download and install SteamCMD. It will also install Garry's Mod and run it.

ATTENTION: First Startup can take very long since it downloads the gameserver files!

Update Notice: Simply restart the container if a newer version of the game is available.

You can also run multiple servers with only one SteamCMD directory!</Overview>

Please change the GAME_PARAMS
to the default values and try again, I think something is wrong there.
oh yes, there is. Is there a way to get the logs from the binary like when i start the server on a host directly instead of running it in the container? i seriously have no clue what could be the issue

I really don't know, the logs from Docker should reflect that what the binaries spit out when you start the server for example on bare metal.
These are the default GAME_PARAMS
:
-secure +maxplayers 12 +map gm_flatgrass
yes, i know. they work very well.
on my servers on windows-basis i get a feed in the logs, that shows how the server installs all the workshop contents and shows errors. i just don't understand why the container doesn't do it so i can find the error in my conf/ setup

I don't know if it works the same on Linux as on Windows because these two systems are completely different and AFAIK on Linux most workshop commands doesn't work properly on other game servers or at least they are different.
EDIT: So if you use the default startup parameters it is working as expected. Please don't forget that I only can support the basic functionality from the container and modding is always up to the user.
i just looked into the Workshop part from Facepunch wiki: https://wiki.facepunch.com/gmod/Linux_Dedicated_Server_Hosting#startingtheserver
Looks like its possible to do it on linux like i did. Sadly adding the parameter and doing on the watch on the filesize reveals that nothing seems to be changed.
Sadly enough I really can't help with that, I would recommend that you create a thread for that on the facepunch forums (if they have one). I'm really not into Gmod but AFAIK a user back then in the support thread on the Unraid forums was able to add workshop contents but I can't remember how he did it (I think he downloaded the content on his PC an moved it over to the Docker).
The error was in my Workshop Collection. I had to setup a server on windows to see the error log. wired Workaround, but i fixed it
Hey There,
i have setup a gmod server using your docker image. Sadly it gets somehow stuck in the start process. Where can i find the logs/ can i somehow attach to the srcds binary to run commands/ see what's wrong?
the logs in docker only show this with no inidcator whats missing.![grafik](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/54744977/218275515-ea62bc3d-ef84-4f14-917e-9f618b34b996.png)
