It is possible to migrate an exising game server to LinuxGSM.
- Install the LinuxGSM server of choice as normal.
- Once installed there will be a vanilla install in
serverfiles
- Backup the serverfiles
mv serverfiles serverfilesbak
- create a new serverfiles directory
mkdir serverfiles
- Copy your existing server in to the empty serverfiles directory.
- Ensure that the file structure matches that of
serverfilesbak
i.e the executable, maps, etc. are in the same place. - Ensure the correct user permissions are used
chown -r gameserver:gameserver serverfiles
- Copy the game server config to the new config file location found in
./gameserver details
- Run update to make sure you are up-to-date
./gameserver update
- Test that the server works.
- Once complete delete
serverfilesbak
