Linux Dedicated Server - Mods not Downloading Consistently / Not Working In-Game

Could you please try this again on the newest hotfix and if it fails, upload the log files?

@zarklord_klei, yes, we tried it! And it's still not working. Do you want the server_log.txt files from ~/Master and ~/Caves? I see a lot of <MOD_MISSING>

I added the server_log.txt file for now

In general, modsettings should not be used to enable server mods, that should be done in modoverrides.lua in the servers save location, I believe that will solve the issue in this instance, that being said, because I forgot about this feature, I failed to properly update its support for the new API, so that will get fixed in the next hotfix.

Gotcha thank you!! When can we expect another hotfix? You da best. 

After reading your post, I tried removing the content of modsettings and added a modoverrides.lua to Caves and Master directory. I finally found some log messages related to logs that seemed to indicate the files were downloading. However for many, it says for XXXXX_legacy.bin

size is 0!

And I don't see any files actually downloaded to that directory other than for camp security mod.


Attached log files.

if that ever occurs, you can delete the entire steamapps folder that is inside data/ I have only ever seen that error occur if players have manually removed mods from that folder.

Thank you! That helped.

Issue #1: Mods not Downloading/Loading
I deleted the entire data/steamapps folder and that allowed more mod folders to download. However, I'm still seeing issues with loading/opening mod files.

Yay, downloaded!


Oh no, errors!

It's difficult to tell because we have a new issue with the update where we can't load into the server without it crashing to validate if mods truly work or not. Using modoverrides.lua and enabling a single mod at a time: 

• Camp Security - Seems to have issue importing mod
  
• Wormhole Marks - Doesn't Seem to Cause Issue, but can't validate bc can't enter game
• Global Positions - Doesn't Seem to Cause Issue, but can't validate bc can't enter game
  

Issue #2: Character Not Displaying
I believe you're aware of this from another post, but with the latest hotfix, even with the mods removed, we are unable to play for some reason. The character does not load in and I see this error:

Warning: Widget:SetFocusFromChild is happening on a widget outside of the screen/widget hierachy. This will cause focus moves to fail. Is ScriptErrorWidget not a screen?

I too am having issues downloading Camp Security on Linux dedicated server. It is the only mod having this issue; interestingly enough it is the only mod attempting to create mod files in the new steamapps folder. All other mods have stayed in mods folder. Glad to hear that there might be a fix coming down the pipeline! Thanks @zarklord_klei for all the fixes; I know this update has been a lot of extra work.
