Topic: Server start problems!

I looked in the page that tells how to start a server, and under the Linux section, and it has 1 command that goes as follows:

 teeworlds_srv -f serverconfig.cfg

but when I try to execute this command in the terminal, it says this:

 teeworlds_srv: command not found

What do I do?

Go by

./teeworlds_srv -f serverconfig.cfg

Re: Server start problems!

It COULD be, that you don't have necessary libraries installed (the no such file appears to be a wrong message, I experienced that once). Try compiling on your own, otherwise there is no teeworlds_srv binary in that directory

Having troubles finding servers in the serverlist? Go to Pastebin (its a referer cause there is daily a new pastebin) and add the lines to your settings.cfg (in %APPDATA%\teeworlds). Then open teeworlds and go to the favorites tab. (Note however, standard teeworlds client can only show 256 favorites, use ddnet instead)

You have to be in the right directory. Navigate there first with the 

cd dirname/twdirname

command. Obviously with the correct directory names.

Re: Server start problems!

How did you install Teeworlds? Did you do `apt-get install teeworlds-server`? If not, you should probably do that first.

My Teeworlds directory is .Teeworlds.

I installed through Steam.

In that case, do a `cd ~/.local/share/Steam/SteamApps/common/Teeworlds` before you start the server with `./teeworlds_srv`.
