Not an Issue Server won't start

Discussion in 'Rust Discussion' started by Филипок, Jan 11, 2015.

  1. Hello guys. recently i have created a rust server(experimental build)on my own dedicated machine. After installing oxide 2 and creating a batch file with appropriate commands, executing batch file leaves me with an empty DOS box. When looked at oxide log file i have discovered the following error strings.

    - All oxide files are present, including lua52.dll at root folder of rust_server.
    - Visual C++ Redistributable 2012 x64 has been installed
    - OS happens to be Windows Server 2008 Enterprise x64

    Guys, what am i missing here?!
    Code:
    1:04 PM [Info] Loading Oxide core...
    1:04 PM [Info] Loading extensions...
    1:04 PM [Error] Failed to load extension Oxide.Ext.Lua (DllNotFoundException: lua52)

    The only reason you'd get that error, is if you are missing lua52.dll, or you don't have Visual C++ 2012 x64 installed properly. Also make sure that you are launching the script from the root server where your server files are.
     
  3. I have checked and found out that link provided on oxide website happened to install 2010 distro. Installing an actual 2012 distro have solved a problem. Help much appreciated.

    I'm not sure what link you got, but the link on the site and in your post is for 2012 x64.
     
  5. Also, i have rad that some folder has to be set
    must be my fault.
    anyway, i would also like to know location of the folder which has to be publicly accessible. Do i have to change folder permission?
    Thanks for help.

    None of the folders have to but publicly accessible, it's not a webserver. All the steps in the tutorial are all that are needed.
