Can't get it to start my server for some reason. Getting the following:

[2/6/2017 4:29:10 PM] Error Starting Server
[2/6/2017 4:29:10 PM] ----------------------------------
Current Time: 2/6/2017 4:29:10 PM
Thrown by: Boolean StartWithCreateProcess(System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo)
Message: The system cannot find the file specified
Stack Trace:
at System.Diagnostics.Process.StartWithCreateProcess(ProcessStartInfo startInfo)
at System.Diagnostics.Process.Start()
at System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(ProcessStartInfo startInfo)
at CAT.server.StartServer(String ServerPath, String ServerFile)

Not sure what's going on, the executable (ConanSandboxServer.exe) is in the path I specified.
 
I have the same problem, i try to put conanserver folder in:

conan exiles server\steamapps\common\Conan Exiles Dedicated Server\ConanSandbox\Binaries\Win64
and
conan exiles server\steamapps\common\Conan Exiles Dedicated Server\

With ConanSandboxServer.exe and ConanSandboxServer-Win64-Test.exe

with my bat file its the ConanSandboxServer.exe.
 
I deleted config of CAT and started another time, when i try to start with ConanSandboxServer-Win64-Test the server start but with ConanSandboxServer can't start.

The latest file in conan server updated it's the conansandbox (7 feb-2017) and test is 31 jan, i wan't to ini server with conandsandboxserver.exe because i think it's the last patched server exe. (it's incorrect?)

I'll have to look into this when I get home from work, but my server is still using the -Test version without a problem. Either way though, CAT doesn't care, just make sure after you change the filename, that you click "File -> Save Settings", or your changes will not be active.

I've had this same issue, however it is still the current version even when you run the ConanSandboxServer-Win64-Test.exe
I have tested this by updating my client and not the server and then the server shows up as invalid (out of date). I then updated the server and booted the ConanSandboxServer-Win64-Test.exe and the server showed up valid(no longer out of date).

I agree that we need to figure out why it sometimes works and sometimes doesn't but I just want to reassure that you should still be running the current version regardless of which one you are using to boot.

I had this same error, didn't realize I needed to hit "save settings" first. As soon as I did it was fine. Might want to make it autosave as soon as you hit start, or at least add a check / message if you did not save first. I almost just gave up on using it as I tried 2-3 different days until I saw this thread.

Yup, you're right. I created a thread in the feature/bug forum just because of this. I've already moved the start button to be visible all the time, and I like the idea of saving settings when starting the server, so I'll add that as well. So that'll all be in the next version.
 
I think this is the same problem I am having. Before using CAT, I was using a batch file to launch the ConanSandboxServer.exe file in the root folder.

With CAT, I cannot use that file and am only allowed to use the ConanSandboxServer-Win64-Test.exe file. When I do this, my server is not detectable on the server list screen within Conan Exiles, I have to use the NEWLY implemented DIRECT CONNECT button on the client. If I do not use CAT and simply launch from that bat file which runs the ConanSandboxServer.exe in the root folder, my server is properly listed so users can connect to it within the Server Listing screen in the client.

I love this tool and can't wait to see it evolve to include more options as you go along improving the program. As of now, please do something to allow us to use the ConanSandboxServer.exe file in the root folder and not the *-Test.exe file.

Thanks,
John

I'm glad you like it! I have a lot more planned for CAT. =)

I'll be looking into this and see what I can do. =) Having two options to start the server doesn't make much sense, so I'm not sure what the reason for the other file is, but... I'll make it work. =)
