Linux Setup

Adam Walker edited this page Dec 29, 2013 · 1 revision

In order to get Starrybound working you'll need to install mono first, make sure you're logged in as root (or a user with sudo permissions). You'll need to run "apt-get install mono-complete" and wait for the installation to complete, this usually takes anywhere between 10-15 minutes depending on the server's connection and CPU.

If you haven't downloaded Starbound yet, you'll need to do that through Steam (https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Steam_under_Linux) or just copy the linux64 and assets folder to the server (I do the latter.)

Once this completes, download/compile the Starrybound server and unzip it into the linux64 directory of your server. You can download Starrybound from GitHub at https://github.com/AvilanceLtd/StarryboundServer/releases.

In order to start the server, you'll need to add an additional argument before the mono command, or it'll say it can't find the required libraries to run the Starbound server, the full command is: "LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:./ mono starrybound_server.exe"
