im trying to access the xml\json/cfg files for my dayz server.

Problem Description

Issue

I have modded many dayz servers through hosting services but never on my own computer. friend recommended this to host the server on my new pc because it provided auto server restarts and auto updates. i can not find the server files. file manager has some files but missing the important files that i need to edit like types.xml

can someone please help me get what i need to continue working on my server.

Reproduction Steps

  • i need help
  • checked the discord. not much help there.
  • no way to open a ticket in discord.

You’ll want to go to Manage of the DayZ server you’re wanting to edit then click on File Manager.

From there go to mpmissions > Click the directory for the map you’re using > db

You’ll find all the files you’re looking for in there. :smile:

thats the problem there is no mpmissions folder.

Manage/File manager/ No mpmissions folder.

That’s not good, you need to delete the instance and start all over as that folder is created upon instance creation.

i reinstalled the instance with the same results. i manually added the server files and it runs and i can join it now.

Now i am having trouble setting up automatic restarts with messages. do you happen to have a guide or tutorial for setting these up?

I suggest using CFTools.

Here’s a good tutorial to get started with CFTools and you don’t need to pay for a subscription, the free tier will work: Getting Started w/ CFTools Cloud | DayZ Server Managerment

Here is another one explaining setting up automatic restarts with CFTools: Setting up automatic restarts w/ CFTools ControlPanel | DayZ…

I hope these help you out and I’m glad you figured out everything to get your server going.

i figured out my issue with the missing folder.

I am trying to find out how to use AMP to start/stop/restart/update the server with warning messages. I paid for this service so at this point im not really seeing a reason to use another service yet. I appreciate the links for CFTools. Have you used the AMP schedule these or is there a customer service area you can point me to?

Thanks.

I’m playing around with it right now but you would need to Manage your DayZ server then go to Schedule and add a new Trigger. From what I understand, the trigger you want to choose is “Run a command in one hour, with warnings (non-blocking)” but don’t hold me to that as I’m testing it right now.
