Ok, so I have a website running on linux,and I have access to cron jobs and all that great stuff :)! But, I have tried running the linuxsoldatserver start (oddly has no file extension) so it was /home/*******/www/soldatserver229/soldatserver. I ran that by uisng cron jobs. Anyhow, I never got output, and nothing did anything. So basically, I need someone to explain to me how to set it up on linux. Yes, I have seen the linux tutorials and wouldn't be posting this except they no longer exist. Thanks in advance

Durrrrr your meant to run it through bash..

in bash (Shell) type this: /path/to/server/soldatserver

I know, I forgot to edit that, and I already have that, but iit still wont work. Why?

Perhaps, somehow, you missed what I said above.

Oh I'm sorry, my bad!

- Make sure you have put the right permissions for the soldatserver file.
- Are you sure you get no feedback when you go to the soldatserver folder and do ./soldatserver it should at least give an error message.

Its ok. :). Now, what do you mean go to the soldat server and do ./soldatserver?

./the_name_of_the_file
is the command to run an executable file with the name after the ./
he is trying to suggest that you run the file.
which just might be the problem with you trying to run a server if you dont know how to run something...
i dont mean to be funny. we were all new once ;P
