[0.15.0] Headless won't start: "Error Util.cpp:58: Invalid value"

Post by jakub »

Hello,
headless version won't boot up. I tried clean download without any settings or configuration on multiple servers. No mods, no config files (example config doesn't help).

Ubuntu 14.04

Version 0.14.23 on same server works. I tried it on instances provided by AWS and scaleway.com

Ubuntu 16.10 has the same issue

I'm receiving the same error on Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS. Our logs are essentially identical

I did an strace of the headless server and it looks like it's giving up after trying to load the server settings json file (which wasn't there by default).

I copied the example settings file from the data directory into the main directory, filled in a few settings, and now the server will start.

You're correct. It will boot in case the server-settings.json is present in data folder. I can't be anywhere else.

This will not work

When I created data/server-settings.json it didn't help until I specified it.

Code: Select all

~/factorio-broken$ bin/x64/factorio --server-settings data/server-settings.json --start-server test.zip
Summary
Create server-settings.json in folder /data/ and pass it as parameter "--server-settings" when launching server

You don't actually need to specify "--server-settings" if you move the server-settings.json to the "root" of the factorio directory.
