AudioCraZ Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 I am having the exact same issue. I went as far as deleting my dedicated server folder, and re-downloading A20 clean. Anyone have a clue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star69 Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 I get those same errors in my server log but it looks like my server is running fine. Renting from Bluefang, deleted all files then installed fresh A20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andydahl Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Same for me, too. Error message on the 7DaysToDieServer.exe in red says: "No server config file loaded ("-configfile=somefile.xml" not given or could not be loaded) And this appears in the logfile: 2021-12-06T15:37:08 0.710 ERR ==================================================================================================== 2021-12-06T15:37:08 0.711 ERR Specified configfile not found: C:\Users\user\Desktop\Steam\Alpha20serverconfig.xml 2021-12-06T15:37:08 0.711 ERR ==================================================================================================== 2021-12-06T15:37:08 0.711 INF Dedicated server only build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star69 Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 For OP, the error 2021-12-06T15:17:48 0.310 ERR Error while initializing platform code, shutting down. is your problem, though not sure why you are getting that error. For andydahl, I moved my config file into the Config folder that I had to create. You also need to create a Saves folder if the install didn't make one and put your serveradmin.xml in there.

Widget Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 I have same issues on my dedicated on Fragnet. But as I see server is crashing because it shows used resources (CPU/MEM as 0). I've tried to clean all, did steam update, changed to exp branch. Clueless what's wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andydahl Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Thanks for the help. I finally got mine to start by reinstalling Microsoft Visual C Redistributables 2022. The log file says I was missing it. I probably had an old version installed. Might want to verify that if you're having issues. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AudioCraZ Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Ok, I was able to get mine to finally run. I downloaded the latest Visual Studio, both the x86 and 64 bit versions and installed the x86 first, then the 64 bit second. Currently generating new map.... See how this goes. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-US/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170#visual-studio-2015-2017-2019-and-2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terrigenus Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 (edited) Hey there, I also got similar shader errors, "Microsoft Media Foundation video decoding to texture disabled: graphics device is Null, only Direct3D 11 and Direct3D 12 (only on desktop) are supported." However, I did a clean install of the server files (and verified), installed the C++ redistributables, but the error unfortunately still popped up. Did a separate install on a second computer but still can't get it working, even with the in-game created maps (Navezgame & others) and with the mods completely removed. The maps worked completely fine on single-player. https://pastebin.com/i1QK3AJR Edited December 7, 2021 by terrigenus (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widget Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 (edited) I solved my problem with my server provider. They have to make changes on their side to make it working. But there is new problem, server don't want to generate new RGW. Works with PREGEN6k but while setting to create new one it simply creates folder but nothing happens. Server is not crashing, it just does nothing. Edited December 7, 2021 by Widget (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure what you mean by this. I've setup the server as I've done in the past but now I get this "somefile.xml" error. Where should I put the information in? Do I open startdedicated.bat in note++ and add it somewhere or where? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
