Valheim Plus Not Installed With Server Update

[Evan_Sebranek]

UPDATE
I created a new instance of the Valheim module and everything appears to working as expected now. I’ve had the old module running on an off since the original release of Valheim, so I’m going to chalk this up to some breaking change along the way. I was able to simply move my save over to the new instance, so I am going to consider this resolved.

Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS:

AMP Release “Halimede” v2.4.1.2

Problem Description:

Valheim Plus is not installed when updating the server after toggling the configuration option. The server update appears successful, and it continues to start successfully. However, it appears to be starting the vanilla version of the game, which results in a version conflict when trying to connect with a Valheim Plus client. The client suggests the server should be running version 0.212.9@0.9.9.11, however the server states that it is running plain old 0.212.9. Do I need to clear some sort of cache to trigger this install?

Steps to reproduce:

1. Toggle “Install Valheim Plus”
   

2. Update Server

3. Run Server

Actions taken to resolve so far:

• Restart OS
• Upgrade AMP and instances
• Upgrade Instance with --no-cache
• Delete steam caches and re-run server update

Install Git and try updating again:

AMP Dependencies - Git

What is Git? Git is a version control system. It’s a way for developers to store different versions of source code as they work on a project, and share it with other developers. Why does AMP need it? Minecraft Module AMP needs Git in order to install both Spigot and CraftBukkit. The reason for this is that due to DMCA requests against the developers of Spigot and Craftbukkit - a complete, built version of either Spigot or CraftBukkit cannot be distributed. So anyone that wants to use either …

Thanks for the quick reply @IceOfWraith, I already have git installed and available the amp user.

Is it possible to update a server from the terminal similar to an instance upgrade?
