Icykyle Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Having followed the steps outlined in the Quick setup Guide on this page, I have found that I repeatedly get this "E_INVALID_TOKEN" issue, and have gone so far as to uninstall the game, delete all local content and folders related to DST and repeated the steps not less than twice. I'm hoping this is a mindless oversight on my part, but cannot spot it myself. Windows 7, cluster.ini is correct file type, in folder Docs>Klei>MyDediServer along with Caves and Master Folders and the cluster_token.txt file. I made certain I do not have hanging spaces behind my server token as it was pasted from the the web admin popup in the open game found by clicking account options. Advice? And don't go telling me it's nothing a good coat of fire won't cure, hahaha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zillvr Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 @Icykyle I believe the correct location of MyDediServer should be under DoNotStarveTogether. Shown below is how it should look based on the Guide. I reckon steamcmd could not detect the cluster_token.txt because you placed it under Documents\Klei\MyDediServer and not Documents\Klei\DoNotStarveTogether\MyDediServer. The Dedicated Server files should be under the DoNotStarveTogether folder. Spoiler Colorcoded for better distinction. Each indented file/folder means it's the content of the folder preceding the indention. As examples: worldgenoverride.lua is a file under the Caves folder. Also the DoNotStarveTogether folder and StartDSTServers.bat are both the contents of the Klei Folder. Etc. I hope that helps, good luck out there. Cheers.

FTR Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Hello, I have the same problem and I did setup everything correctly (double checked). Hosting server worked fine when I used it through steam, but now I cannot host it. Help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zillvr Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 @FTR just to be clear so we're on the same page, I'll be assuming you were using the same Guide mentioned above. So through steamcmd on Windows. Even after following the guide to the letter, the steamcmd outputs E_INVALID_TOKEN? Can you confirm you are using the correct directory paths like i mentioned before? Anyways, since you say it used to work and now it doesn't, perhaps you can try and generate a new cluster_token.txt. Lastly would you mind posting the server_log.txt found under your server's Master folder so we'll be able to see what's happening to the server.

FTR Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Yes I am using this guide. I checked everything once again, step by step and everything is correct and it still gives me error E_INVALID_TOKEN I tried generating new token twice already, didn't help.

Zillvr Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 @FTR can you confirm whether or not the token inside cluster_token.txt has no spaces before or after the token itself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FTR Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Just checked, there are no spaces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zillvr Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 @FTR just tried it on my end, seems like spaces doesn't affect it's readablity by the server. Anyhow, next thing I'd like for you to try the console command TheNet:GenerateClusterToken() As stated by your logs. Also be sure that the server is close and shut down before you go changing the contents of the server files (cluster_token.txt in this case). Then once you changed, replaced and/or saved the new token, try start up the server again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FTR Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 I used that command and updated my cluster_token file but unfortunately it still didn't fix the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zillvr Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 @FTR can you confirm that your DST game itself is updated to the latest version when you generated the token (which would be 173373)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FTR Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Yes it is. I honestly have no clue what causes this problem, perhaps game has trouble finding correct path to the token? I have no clue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zillvr Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 @FTR you did say it (running the server through steamcmd) used to work before then it suddenly stopped working, right? Can you show the contents of your StartDSTServers.bat file? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FTR Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 No no. It worked on my old pc when it was still possbile to host dedicated server through steam tools. I don't seem to be able to post my bat file without being blocked from klei forum.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zillvr Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 @FTR try copy pasting the contents of the StartDSTServers.bat file into a .txt file and send that instead by attaching it to your next reply (there should be Drag files here to attach, or choose files... below the edit box when you reply). Can you check whether cluster_token.txt really is a text document? Since based on the image you provided, cluster.ini is only labeled as cluster but has an icon of a .ini file (I think, you're on Windows 7, right?). Anyway to check for the file type, just set the Folder View mode to Details and check under the File Type column. Can you confirm that the cluster_token.txt really is a text document? I think I may have the solution to your issue, you probably saved it as cluster_token.txt.txt instead of only just cluster_token.txt (the filename of the .txt file should only be "cluster_token" and not "cluster_token.txt"). So rename to just cluster_token since it's already saved as a .txt file. I hope that makes sense and I actually got it right. Report back if it worked or not. If it did work, cheers!

ToNiO55 Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Hi @FTR if still not working, can you send your token with private message for me please? i can test your token on my dedicated server, it's just for see if he works or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FTR Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Thank you so much that was the problem! Some stupid tiny mistake. I guess other people that have this error should be careful when naming those files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icykyle Posted April 20, 2016 Author Share Posted April 20, 2016 Thanks Zill and Tonio for your attention, I knew there was something but did not have the perspective to see the forest for all the trees in my way. I moved the folder to the corrected location and now everything is working! You guys are a shiny light in a sea of trolls, the very reason the internet is worth it!

Zillvr Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Hey @kimjongnomnom, welcome to the forums. Can you confirm the following things? That the cluster_token.txt is actually as .txt file and not as cluster_token.txt.txt? That you have it in the correct path location, beside the Master and Caves folder and cluster.ini under MyDediServer folder? That the documents folder you are editing from is the default documents folder of your system? To find out the last thing, press the Win key and type Documents. The first search entry that appears would be your PC's actual Documents folder. There was a situation that OneDrive takes over the Documents folder and the path location of your actual Documents folder would be different.

This was the problem for me. I had specifically put the files NOT in the one drive folder but apparently something defaults the game to that. I just moved my bat and cluster_token.txt to the onedrive folder and all is well again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
