Solved Start/stop my server from console?

You can't start your server via a console command, it has to actually be started to accept commands. You can properly stop your server by using the "quit" command, not the "stop" command. If your host doesn't automatically restart it, then you'll have to manually start it once you're host's panel is back online.

 

The "restart" command does not actually restart your server, it will shut it down just like "quit" does, except with a countdown.

Your server may automatically restart if your host provides that, otherwise you won't be able to turn it on until the host's control panel is up.

 

The Rust server has no way to start itself..., either you or your host have automatic startup if the server goes offline as I mentioned previously. A program cannot start itself unless it is wrapped with something that monitors it, such as a simple .bat restart script or a watchdog program of some sort.

 

Right, they have monitoring setup for servers. Not all hosts have that, and locally hosted servers won't either unless the have something setup. The "restart" command though does not provide any sort of restarting by itself.

 

Please do not bump threads from 2 years ago. If you are having an issue, please create a new thread.

To answer your question though, "server.stop" should not be used with Rust, you'll have to restart now.
