Alright, it looks like you’re having an issue with starting the Stormworks server due to some errors with the updates and configuration merges. Here’s a few things to check and try:

  1. Check for Missing Files:
    The logs indicate that server64.exe doesn’t exist. Make sure the files are correctly downloaded and exist in the expected directory. If they don’t, try re-downloading them.

  2. Permissions Issue:
    Sometimes file permissions can cause issues. Run ampinstmgr fixperms if you haven’t already. This can help ensure all the necessary files have the correct permissions.

  3. XML Configuration File Issues:
    There are warnings about missing XML document nodes. The configuration files might be corrupted or incomplete. Check the contents of server_config.xml in the path C:\AMPDatastore\Instances\Stormworks01\stormworks\1247090\, and see if it’s missing the required nodes.

Try these steps:

  1. Verify Installation Again:
    Open the AMP interface, stop the Stormworks instance, and then run a verify before starting it again.

  2. Fix Permissions:
    Run ampinstmgr fixperms and ensure all the files have the right permissions.

  3. Inspect Configuration:
    Manually inspect server_config.xml to ensure all the necessary nodes are there.

  4. Reinstall:
    If things are still wonky, consider reinstalling the Stormworks server instance.

Let me know if checking and fixing these issues helps or if you need more specific guidance! :smile:
