🚀 Quick Start

git clone https://github.com/halysondev/PWServerInstallScript.git
cd PWServerInstallScript
chmod +x PWServer.sh
./PWServer.sh install

📝 Configuration

The script uses environment variables for configuration, which can be set in a configure file located at /PWServer/configure.

Configure File Explanation

The configure file contains all settings for your server, including:

• Script Settings: Auto-update behavior
• Directory Settings: Server directory locations
• Port Configuration: External ports for server services
• Service Control: Enable/disable individual services
• Backup Settings: Database credentials and backup locations

Here's a sample configuration:

Server Port Configuration

The script manages network ports for server connections. Important points:

• Each GLINKD instance requires its own port
• Setting a port to 0 will prevent the firewall rules from being applied to that port
• When a port is set to 0, the corresponding drop and accept commands will ignore that port

🔧 Advanced Usage

Custom Service Configuration

You can customize which services start with the server by editing the corresponding variables in the configure file:

export PW_START_GAMED="true"      # Enable or disable the main game service
export PW_START_GLINKD_1="true"   # Enable or disable GLINKD instance 1
# ... and so on for other services

Backup Management

The script provides comprehensive backup functionality:

# Create a full backup
./PWServer.sh backup

# Sync backups to external server (requires SSH configuration)
./PWServer.sh backup-sync

# Clean up old backups according to retention policy
./PWServer.sh backup-old

Firewall Management

To manage access to your server ports:

# Allow connections to all configured GLINKD ports
./PWServer.sh accept

# Block connections to all configured GLINKD ports
./PWServer.sh drop

📊 Troubleshooting

Common Issues

1. Services not starting: Check the log files in /{PW_SERVER_DIR}/logs/ for error messages
2. Database connection problems: Verify DB credentials in the configure file
3. Permission issues: Ensure proper permissions for script execution and server directories

Log Files

Service logs are stored in /{PW_SERVER_DIR}/logs/ and can be examined for troubleshooting.
