Misc AC Server Manager v1.7.9

[HectorBart]

First of all, thank you for this tool, I very much look forward to using it. However, I am running into a problem that I am struggling to solve. I see that others have had the same issue to me, but I have not been able to figure out how the solution to it works.

I am trying to run the server in Docker with the recommended Docker compose installation, but every time I run it I get the following error:

I have tried to create the directory manually inside the container without success, as I get permission denied every time. I have not got much experience using with Docker so any help with some simple steps would be much appreciated.

Thanks

I'm using pfsense and haproxy to run a reverse proxy on my homelab, which I got working for NextCloud. What do I need to do on ACSM config to allow for the same?

I got this figured out. I'm now using haproxy thru pfsense to force all http traffic thru https. This way, I can use reverse proxy with separate SSL certs for my AC and ACC SM servers.

Why is it so difficult to run a server? I just want to host a game that i can invite my friends to without all the complexity. Is this possible?

Hi can you Please help

I am unable to get my my portal on the internet I need to get the signup forms on line.

The error occurred attempting to: Listen on hostname "Public IP":8772. Likely the port has already been taken by another application
The error more specifically is: listen tcp "Public IP":8772: bind: The requested address is not valid in its context.

if I leave it at 0.0.0.0:8772 it doesn't want to connect

Must I open the port on router

If I give access through the Firewall do I do it in the Outbound or inbound rule ?

Hi,i think, there is a bug with Real Penalty Tool (Setting)
Following is in AC Server Manager (1.78)

And in penalty_settings are the following:

[Jump_Start]
PENALTY_TYPE_0=dsq
SPEED_LIMIT_PENALTY_0=9999

The right must be:

PENALTY_TYPE_0 = dt
SPEED_LIMIT_PENALTY_0 = 50

PENALTY_TYPE_1 = sg10
SPEED_LIMIT_PENALTY_1 = 200

PENALTY_TYPE_2 = dsq
SPEED_LIMIT_PENALTY_2 = 9999

Hi,

Thanks very much!

This usually happens because of the folder already existing, it's best for the folders that the manager tries to be access to not exist when you run the installation. That way it can create the folders itself and have proper permission to access them!

Hopefully removing those folders will fix this for you,

Thanks

The AC server isn't the easiest to work with but it's not too bad if you follow a guide (https://github.com/JustaPenguin/assetto-server-manager/wiki/Installation-Instructions), and it's much easier with a manager like ours than trying to run the server manually! Unfortunately if you're looking for a one-button solution for AC nothing exists due to the complexity of the Server itself.

Thanks

Hi!

You do need to open the http port in your router, for both out and inbound! If the port is already in use then you may need to try a different one in the config.yml hostname, any available port should work fine.

Also the IP should be left as 0.0.0.0 in the config, not your public IP (0.0.0.0 will make the manager accessible on your public ip)!

Thanks

Hi,

on the Server -> Accounts page click the "Make Open" button!

Thanks

I have three cars with several skins on server. Is it possible to lock car/skin for steamguid?

It is, if you turn on "Locked Entry List" then drivers should be automatically assigned to the car/skin associated with their GUID in the entry list!

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks for reporting this, we'll have a look into it!

Thanks

 

[Goblin616]

Thank you for replying. Finally somebody did lol... I'll have a look at the guide. Tell me, is it possible to host a simple server that I can invite my friends to?

 

[Juttie205]

Just after some advice I have set up a trial championship and the drivers want to practice in different cars but it does not matter what car they choose it puts them in a random car?.
In driver profile I have it set to any car available apart from myself as I allocated myself a car. Am I missing something is there a way people can try different cars in a practice session.

Windows defender stopped the download due to virus detection. Trojan:Win32/Fuery.C!cl

False positive? Has anyone else experienced this?

 

[Tassos]

hi guys, im new to this so I have a quick question: can i set up just practice sessions to play with some friends? I dont see anywhere mentioning free practice or roam.......just races....

 

[ennimann]

You can use Custom Race. Create a new one, without Race and Qualifying.

hi, i have a problem which is driving me crazy (no pun intended) (Assetto Corsa,, not competizione)

I am able to connect to the server only once, after that, i login, but the screen is black (except for the menu, and i can't drive the car).

To fix this i usually just try to login multiple time (like 10+ times) and at some point it works.
Stopping and restarting the server doesn't help, because after i do this, i still show as active on server - and i don't understand why, since i logout.

I tried waiting a few minutes between logins (20+ min) and i still can't login. (logs below)

We are 10+ people, and i'm the only one who has this problem.
We are using GT4 mod, but again, others which use the same car as me don't have this problem.
It did start with the mod, but i am guessing something is missing from somewhere for me and i have no idea what or from where.

i think this is the error that matters
level=error msg="Could not handle car update" error="json: unsupported value: NaN"

All i want is some ideas to work with.
Or, maybe someone else had the same problem and can give me some hints

Sorry for the long post and thanks
