Post in this repo for General support; select the issues tab above.
We want to help out server admins as best as we can, however, time is limited and is best spent on developing LinuxGSM. Please use this guide to help yourself get the correct support.
By researching your issue, posting it in the correct place and provide the correct information you can resolve your issue faster.
If your issue is with the game server and not LinuxGSM you should check out any official game forums. We are not experts in all the game servers, so official game developer forums could provide better support for game server-specific issues. Please esee below for a list of some of the official game channels
The LinuxGSM website and docs are full of useful information that covers most LinuxGSM topics.
It is likely that someone has come across your issue already. Save yourself time by using Google to search error messages.
"Google is how I learnt and still learn to use BASH and develop LinuxGSM.” - Daniel Gibbs https://google.com
Make sure LinuxGSM is up to date. LinuxGSM is regularly updated and your problem may have already been resolved.
./gameserver update-lgsmEnsure you post the issue in the correct forum.
