Dedicated Server - Multiplayer Save Issue

[Apezdr]

See post below for fix

 

Getting this error on dedicated server, haven't changed anything

 

If there is a way to fix it feel free to let me know and I'll take a whack at it. If I can remove it from the world dictionary I'll do it!

 

I do have mods enabled, see below...

I was testing the host button in-game and found that it was able to start my multiplayer server save just fine, this isn't ideal though so any feedback would be still appreciated!

Base.Pop2 is the item that is causing issues, this can happen due to any mod modifying or interacting with the item. The logs don't show which mod it is caused by though, can only recommend mod pruning.

I'm not sure how the save in game would work but the dedicated server wouldn't.

 

Please elaborate on mod pruning if that's what I have to do. To restate my post earlier.

It doesn't add up why it would work using the in game host button but not my dedicated server using the same mod files and same save.

Again this is a multiplayer save so going into the load option and deselecting active mods doesn't seem to work but hosting a server does.

I was able to get the dedicated server started again by closing the server down and deleting all mods under...

 

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Project Zomboid Dedicated Server\steamapps\workshop

 

Deleting the appworkshop file "appworkshop_108600.acf" after go into the contents folder and delete the folder "108600"

 

Start the server back up and it will download all mods defined in servertest.ini (go here to see the mods defined)

%userprofile%/Zomboid/Server

 

Seems this is the fix for 90% of the problems with server hosting...Mods folder being goofed up. Hopefully this will be patched up at some point.
