Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/GameServerManagers/LinuxGSM/issues/4729

User story

As a server operator, I want to be able to run servers on the default install.

Game

Palworld

Linux distro

Ubuntu 22.04

Command

command: start

Further information

Attempting to run ./pwserver start does not start to server. Log output provided. Running the ./PalServer.sh from the serverfiles/ starts the server fine. Only LGSM config changes in common.cfg are to post discord alerts.

This is on a fresh install of Ubuntu 22.04 server on a Proxmox LXC.

Relevant log output

pwserver@n3-pal:~$ ./pwserver start
[ .... ] Starting pwserver: Bloodshed's Pals!no server running on /tmp/tmux-1000/pwserver-4d1924b8
[ FAIL ] Starting pwserver: Unable to start Bloodshed's Pals!

Steps to reproduce

Just a thought as I recently launched my Palworld server w/ LGSM on 22.04 as well without issue - what happens if you remove the apostrophe from your server name? Perhaps it isn't being handled appropriately in some script and could be breaking something.

That did it. Appreciate the quick input on that, been short on time to really dig into these. Hopefully this helps someone else in the future.
