To update the host's available packages list and install the updated glibc library package, run the following commands via sudo or a root shell:Īpt-get -t experimental install libc6-dev.# Experimental/unstable (sid) repositories Add the following lines to /etc/apt/sources.list:.To install the required version of glibc on a Debian 7 (Wheezy) host: Ubuntu 14.04 (and newer) and Debian 8 (Jessie) satisfy this requirement automatically, but older versions, such as Debian 7 (Wheezy), do not. The game server requires glibc 2.14 or greater. Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (can be found in the Steam Ark game folder under _CommonRedist/vcredist/folder).ĭirectX (DXSETUP, can be found in the Steam Ark game folder under _CommonRedist/DirectX/June2010/ folder).Ħ4bit Linux servers will require 32 bit binaries to install/run steamcmd. Note: Query Port cannot be between 2700 due to Steam using those ports. You can host multiple dedicated servers on the same host, however be aware that CPU and memory should be monitored carefully if they are busy servers rather than test servers. RCON for remote console server access (optional) Raw UDP socket port (always Game client port +1)

Ensure your network configuration allows incoming connections to these ports and directs them to the host that will be running your dedicated server. The server listens for incoming connections on the ports listed below. On Linux, the installation uses 3.2GB of RAM without any clients.

On Windows Server 2012 R2, the server uses 2.3GB of RAM without any clients.

This is also dependant on your settings/mods and configurable options. Memory requirements increase as the number of connected players increases. The server requires at least 6GB of RAM to start. The server has been tested on Ubuntu 14.04 and should also support any Windows host where the prerequisites found in _CommonRedist can be installed. Your OS must be a 64-bit OS (ShooterGameServer is a 64-bit executable and as such will not run on a 32-bit install of Ubuntu or Windows).

8.2 Linux server exhibits high CPU usage and low memory usage (Below 1GB).

8.1 Server loses characters or world data upon restart.
