Changing windows server to linux?
#1

I bought a VPS from Ultra-host a few weeks ago. I just came to know that the host is Linux based...or on linux. And my server is windows server. I tried to change it to linux but i wasn't able to. What I did :
1) Downloaded all the plugins.
2) Replaced the plugins (.dll) with .so plugins.
3) Changed the name in configuration file.
and still doesn't saves even the plugins load successfully.

Any ideas how to do it?

P.S : Wrong section maybe but no one replies in the Server Support. Sorry.

You should download the Linux server files, added your .so plugins to the plugins folder, edit the server.cfg as you normally would and upload to your server. There's literally no differences when it comes to loading the plugins, filterscripts and game-mode (other than of course you cannot load .dlls).

Edit: This wiki article has some useful information! https://sampwiki.blast.hk/wiki/Linux_Server

Umm.. This may be stupid, but have you changed the RCON password at server.cfg? I remember spending 5 minutes trying to figure what's wrong and I realized it was that.

Actually, I don't really understand this

What doesn't saves? Do you mean the server can't run?

Sorry for double post but i meant player stats. I have a system made by Y_INI for saving things. It cannot find the Path File or something so it doesn't save it.

Now, I see.
Have you created the RIGHT FOLDERS in scriptfiles directory?
e.g. in your script it looks like this:
pawn Код:
#define usr_path "users/%s.ini" // Example
Then, make a folder "users" at scriptfiles directory.
"Cannot find the path file" -> missing folder?
Make sure you have created the right folder inside scriptfiles directory.

Yeah I have. Case sensitive. The saving system worked perfectly on my PC local host though.

I tried it. Still no change :/. I've even changed the plugin names in the configuration file to .so and replaced the plugins with .so plugins. Still NO change. I've even tried it on another linux host (triangle) but it was the same. Any way thanks for suggesting.
