hello guys,
I had a problem about several month now that most (all I tested) scripts work fine until you try to start the server “[FAIL] Starting Server …” was the message ever single time.
The Solution is as simple as I can be.
My first step after login on to my server is starting a tmux session so that I can multitask!
And most of you know also the solution for that problem.
Tmux can’t start tmux sessions out of itself so you can’t use DGscripts when you’re in a tmux session ;)

Just wanna post it cause I took me sadly several month to recognize it :/
(Seems I am not a advanced linux user xD)

have a nice day guys

Lol o dear you tried to start a tmux session in a tmux session. LGSM is designed to start tmux for you, so the server runs in the background.

This is the first time I have heard anyone trying to do this.

Personally, I don't understand why you would start a tmux session immediately.
