Dedicated Server Issue (help needed)

I installed the patch to 1.0, I started a dedicated server through steam. After which I realized I can not play and host the server that way. So I went to the Starbound / win32 directory and started the server via starbound_server.exe. As the server was setting up i noticed in the background a directory was made "storage" which is fine and all because thats where all the server information is being held. I stopped the server and edited the starbound_server.config. I set the max players / name of server/ and admin accounts. This is where the problem occurs. When I restarted the server, the server overwrote my config file and got a starbound_server.config.old. So I figured the starbound_server.config was actually stored else where. I couldnt find it. I found the pre-1.0 server config still in the "giraffe_storage" as it was set up during that time. I cut and pasted the config file from the giraffe directory into a neutral one. I restarted the server thinking maybe the pre-1.0 config was messing it up. But it wasnt. Has anyone had this issue and or found a way to repair it. I appreciate the help.

There ya have it. Many Thanks on the help ​

 

I appreciate all the help Iris. Sadly it did not work. I was truly hoping that it would, to make life easier regarding the matter. I am sure that this will come in handy for others who may have almost the same issue. I am going to remove the game from steam and reinstall it. Than try again fresh. Only this time I will have your command lines correct Thanks again and I will let ya know how it turns out in the end.

 

The { } brackets are wrong on that part. You have "tutorialMessages" inside "serverUsers" block, which is missing a closing bracket before it. Like:

Code:

"serverUsers" : {
"NAME" : { "admin" : true, "password" : "12345" }
},
"tutorialMessages" : true
}

 

Wow ! Who knew an oversight like missing one } could cause such a headache. It worked nicely. I appreciate both you fine folks for taking the time to help out You both rock !!
