I'm trying to setup a Rust server using the panel but it's not allowing the server to start before it tries to start another instance.

I've setup manually as well as using the template that was updated due to the way the server starts now so it takes forever.

I've disabled monitoring entirely and even sent the time to start at 5000 minutes and still it tries to start the server multiple times.

If i start the server manually via it's batch file it starts fine so it's something with the way the panel is attempting to start the exe.

Does anyone here run Rust servers? I'm clueless on what is wrong because starting manually works fine but starting with the panel does not.

I've enabled broker as well and watched the console and it does start but as the % is rising for the server to load it starts another process and closes the first and just continues in a loop.

Did you look at the panel logs?

I would look at the logs i can help you out if need be for sure. i have been using this panel and love it for all my rust servers.

So look at that log got me thinking lets make that player count say 1000 - and guess what it worked...no more double starting....definitely a bug though because it should be able to be set to 0 and Rust not restart like that.

Wait a moment you set the player count to 0 and the server boot loops? Where is this setting at You talking able the Enable Maximum player monitoring under the Monitoring Tab. If so Mine is set to 0 and I have no issues.

If you can point me were that setting is I can provide screen shots you can check out my system even if you like. I have not had that bug at all

Yeah it's in the monitoring tab. It's the one that should be set to 0 but for whatever reason in my install it causes the server to boot loop and start multiple instances. I set it to 1000 players which would never happen as I run a max of 250 and it works fine and doesn't attempt to start things. I haven't heard from Masher in a bit so hope everything is ok as I have other questions and issues open for quite some time.

This line from the log is worrisome. There's something wrong with querying the server. Could you backup the server and send me the file?
