#Hi so I have trouble with installong LabApi
1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
have you started the server yet?
are you sure you're on the labapi-beta or early-server-build branch?
I have only basic server, so I think no
Fellow Ubuntu fan i see.
Okay so after downloading the server you need to launch it at least once to load the files
Are you developing plugins or just installing them for your server?
Kali fan but for now on Ubuntu because Unity works only on Ubuntu
Oh
So the new LabAPI framework is only for the beta version of the server tool. Otherwise you're looking for NWAPI plugins
Did you install the server tool using steamcmd?
yes
user@user:~/.config/SCP Secret Laboratory# ls
cmdbinding.txt internal LocalAdminLogs registry.txt
config keybinding.txt PluginAPI ServerLogs
After starting server
Your on 14.0 then
Yep, okay so you need to switch to the beta version
yes
Switch to early-server-build / labapi-beta
Using steamcmd, type in app_update 996560 --beta labapi-beta
After you change the install directory and log in of course
I uninstalled scp sl server folder reinstalled with commanda but config is still same
So you can't find the LabAPI-beta folder in /.config/SCP Secret Laboratory?
You need to install the beta using this command and make sure steamcmd force_install_dir is set to where you want it to go
i did
Then did you run the server after switching to the beta?
yes
Send a SS of your /.config/SCP Secret Laboratory folder
so I uninstalled acidently ./config/SCP SL
Oh dear
If you can't restore it from recycle bin, run the server and it'll add back the folder
But all your server settings will probably be reset
amd another problem arised
steamcmd doesn't work
Command 'steamcmd' is available in '/usr/games/steamcmd'
The command could not be located because '/usr/games' is not included in the PATH environment variable.
steamcmd: command not found
read the error.
you cannot run steamdmc because its inside the /urs/games/steamcmd
Make sure you either add that to PATH.
or you run the command from that directory
ie:
$ /usr/games/steamcmd/steamcmd app_update 996560 --beta labapi-beta
you might need to add install_direcotry or smth to the argument
i had to type export PATH="/usr/games:$PATH" into terminal
But still there is no labApi folder
have you started the game
The server
ye
I don't understand why it still keeps writing PluginAPI and Nortwood Lib
Even after start of the server
Maybe I have to install server after switching to LabAPI on steam?
Alright I fuck on this. No matter what I do It still does the same thing
Try just making a completely new SL dedicated server installation
Open up steamcmd and type in
force_install_dir /home/SCPSLserver
login anonymous
app_update 996560 --beta labapi-beta
Then do the usual ./LocalAdmin/7777 in that directory
Okay try app_update 996560 -beta labapi-beta validate
Finally it works
