- This is a short installation guide from an inexperienced arma 3 server maintainer that will make it easier to install arma3server on Linux (ubuntu).
- install steamcmd
- Follow the following instructions to download arma3 via steamcmd (do not start yet)
- generate the servercfg and copy it to the arma3server main directory
- Insert and activate the systemctl service with the partially preconfigured template
- Copy the arma3 start script into the appropriate directory
- the directory for the arma3 start script, if different, also adapt it to the systemctl service file so that the script is also started
- Check the arma3 start script to see whether the directory stored as a variable where the arma3 server is installed needs to be adjusted.
- then start the arma3 service via systemctl.
