Originally created by @Xylemon on GitHub (Jan 31, 2015).
Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/GameServerManagers/LinuxGSM/issues/282

Since I've updated all the functions and scripts, Killing Floor no longer starts:

kfserver start
tail: cannot open '3' for reading: No such file or directory
/linktoscript/kf/functions/fn_start: line 47: [: : integer expression expected
[ FAIL ] Starting kf-server: Unable to start Killing Floor Server
Check log files: /linktoscript/kf/log

The logs just says:

Jan 30 23:11:07 kf-server: Starting: Killing Floor Server
Jan 30 23:11:08 kf-server: Starting: Rotating log files

Distro Details:

Distro: Slackware 14.1
Arch: x86_64
Kernel: 3.14.18
tmux: tmux 1.8
GLIBC: 2.19

I did comment about this in another issue thinking the two might be related, but ended up creating a separate issue since it was more appropriate.

Tested this on CentOS and there is no error. Im guessing that Slackware is playing silly buggers again. Here is the offending code. My guess is that tmux -V part of the code is not returning an integer. Even though when I have tested in on other distros it works.

# tmux pipe-pane not supported in tmux versions < 1.6
if [ "$(tmux -V|sed "s/tmux //"|sed -n '1 p'|tr -cd [:digit:]|tail -c 3)" -lt "16" ]; then
    echo "Console logging disabled: Tmux => 1.6 required" >> "${consolelog}"
    echo "Currently installed: $(tmux -V)" >> "${consolelog}"
else
    tmux pipe-pane -o -t ${servicename} "exec cat >> '${consolelog}'"
fi

What can I do to help solve this issue? I would like to get my Killing Floor server back up as soon as possible.

Not sure I may require access to a slackware vps so I can investigate this. OVH don't do that as an option. I will test again on centos to be sure that this is only a Slackware issue.

Just:

[ FAIL ] Starting kf-server: Unable to start Killing Floor Server
Check log files: /linktoscript/kf/log

Log files still empty sadly.

The been investigating the issue and looks like the server is simply failing to start. I think debug mode will reveal the issue.

Also tmux pipe-pane which is responsible for console logs is not always working now for some reason.

What version of tmux are you using? Just found that version 1.8 has a bug in which pipe-pane does not work.

OK seems the issue was a silly mistake in the script (I think it was something I did). Basically it was that in the parameters section "ini=" was set to something different. Setting it to "ini=${servercfg}" fixed everything, thanks for suggesting debug mode! I also did update Tmux to the 1.9a just now to avoid any issues with Tmux comparability.

Awesome. I will be adding using debug mode in to the error message. To remind Admins to use that feature when having problems. I will also be adding a message in about tmux 1.8 bug.
