I am having a very similar issue myself while running this script. The server will start up fine if I use the startup command manually (by switching into /arma3server/serverfiles/) but when using the script I get the following "tmux errror : No such files or directory.

Logs:
./arma3server start: http://pastebin.com/jKJjVNPZ
./arma3server details: http://pastebin.com/u0c0fX72
./arma3server debug: http://pastebin.com/k9131KPA

It might be a problem with /dev/pts being mounted to your container (based on your root filesystem being a loopback device).

Does your system have any problem with starting a generic tmux session?

Just issue tmux, Then type 'exit'.

No server console logs generated since it fails to start ? Take note that i'm trying to help without having ever made an Arma3 server. I know more about LGSM than Arma3.

I just saw your start parameters, they seem to be on several lines. Is that an issue with pastebin's formatting, or is it really like that ?
I'd simplify the start parameters and try again to see if it's due to that first.
Starting with debug function would help too to isolate a possible issue with tmux.

thats a paste bin issue.. it wouldn't have a console log because it never gets to the point of the start command, it fails way before then. it had logs right before i restarted the arma server. The debug functions kills my mods, then I therefor would have to reinstall them to my box.

This is definitely a problem with tmux rather than LGSM. However what is causing the issue I dont know. So you wont get much of an output from logs apart from teh error you get given from tmux. I recommend Googling the error "protocol version mismatch (client 8, server 7)" and see what comes up.

@dgibbs64 The problem evolved, i suppose after what Cedar said.
Now it's "no server running on /tmp/tmux-1003/default"
I'm just thinking about it : what if you got a ghost tmux session running preventing the new one from opening ?

ps auxn | grep tmux
ps auxn | grep arma3

I didn't have either running.
a reinstall fixes it 3rd time now.

but as far as crontabs go still doesn't work gives me an error..
this paste bin is from my mail logs from the crontabs
http://pastebin.com/bXS3BeZr doesn't make sense since I can run the command and it works...

Did you fix your crontabs as i suggested in the first place ?
Your syntax is not what we suggest, and all those "stop/start"... The "restart" function would be way more efficient as it does the exact same thing, but without any delay.

What do you mean locked out ?
Can you show your user and root cronjobs ?
Also, is it now working correctly, cronjobs appart ?

If I could get the server running then it would be working but since, Tried to get root to issue the command It now has locked me out of executing the ./arma3server

root cron
http://pastebin.com/V7BAei1Z
/var/spool/mail/ log
http://pastebin.com/AcBtEied

I have since deleted the user cronjob but still have the /var/spool/mail/ for said user and the cronjobs were copied and pasted from the example linked above but with my settings
http://pastebin.com/CG3vL8S1

I get this when I am the user trying to start the server..

bash-4.2$ ./arma3server start
bash: ./arma3server: Permission denied
I have all the files Chmod 777 so I know any one could execute it.

You possibly messed up permissions: Who owns arma3server and other files ?

Arma3server user does.. which i dont understand why it would all of a sudden say that user doesn't. if I chmod 0777 everything that has to do with the server it would allow everyone and their mother to edit/run/view so I dont see how that would change it.

Well, everything seems fine in terms of permissions (except it's unsecured as fuck)
What if your user just can't run scripts anymore due to something else you did ?
Some googleing lead me to think it could be related to fstab settings.
cat /etc/fstab

I also Added arma3server login to be a sudoer. maybe that will fix it. im having my fingers crossed. I didnt change any settings just added the root to cronjob it since the user cron would error out as well.. thinking the root would override the permission.

Did you try backuping your arma3server script, then remove the lgsm foler, then download arma3server again, put back your settings in it, and try again ?
Could you try to run any bash script with that user, to at least see if it can ?
If it doesn't help and you can't fix what's wrong on your system, if got nothing else installed on this machine, maybe go for a fresh system install and make sure to not break it this time. :o))

I mean I'm sure the datacenter I use can do that for a small fee, but from what I did, I didn't touch anything just changed permission from 0775 to 0777 which from my understanding shouldn't do such a thing like this. I may just be more of a entry level linux tech (since I am in school for network admin) but I am very confident that I didn't change anything I wasn't suppose to... maybe it was just a freak error or something. just weird how the user cronjob didnt run and would give me a error then root cron would lock me out.. I have 4 different directory with the server install already done for issues like this, all i have to do is drag and drop mods and cfgs into the base set ups to get it back online. but unfortunately I am not at home so all I can do iss ssh in and just try to figure out what the problem is.

I personally have never seen something like that, and it's been like 1.5 years i don't miss an issue on the github support and almost 1 year for the steam group. So i'm kinda clueless here.
As you now can't run the script for denied permission, the only thing i'm sure about is that it's not a script issue.

Anyways, did you try what i just suggested ? https://github.com/dgibbs64/linuxgsm/issues/928#issuecomment-235382092
