Running game via SteamCMD.

Was running previously with A19.

Did a full verify and all files up to date.

Cleared all old game info, working with a new config, as well as tried the default config file.

Server closes after run up and loading the serverconfig

Any suggestions are appreciated.

getting a bunch of the below in the log file:    https://justpaste.it/7j608

EDIT - ***********************

Fixed for me by reinstalling Microsoft Visual C Redistributables 2022

I am having the exact same issue.

I went as far as deleting my dedicated server folder, and re-downloading A20 clean.

Anyone have a clue?

 
I get those same errors in my server log but it looks like my server is running fine. Renting from Bluefang, deleted all files then installed fresh A20.

 
Same for me, too. Error message on the 7DaysToDieServer.exe in red says:

"No server config file loaded ("-configfile=somefile.xml" not given or could not be loaded)

And this appears in the logfile:

2021-12-06T15:37:08 0.710 ERR ====================================================================================================

For OP, the error 2021-12-06T15:17:48 0.310 ERR Error while initializing platform code, shutting down. 

is your problem, though not sure why you are getting that error. For andydahl, I moved my config file into the Config folder that I had to create. You also need to create a Saves folder if the install didn't make one and put your serveradmin.xml in there.

 
I have same issues on my dedicated on Fragnet. But as I see server is crashing because it shows used resources (CPU/MEM as 0).

I've tried to clean all, did steam update, changed to exp branch. Clueless what's wrong.

 
Thanks for the help. I finally got mine to start by reinstalling Microsoft Visual C Redistributables 2022. The log file says I was missing it. I probably had an old version installed. Might want to verify that if you're having issues.

has any dedicate server launched in command line , just ignore all about shader, the server would work with these error.

you forget to mention the serverconfig.xml at launch
You can create a shortcut and add -configfile=yourconfig.xml or in a batch file (.bat) entering this line
7DaysToDieServer.exe -configfile=yourconfig

if you  put your config in a separate folder then your application , you need to specify the foler
if is in a sub folder then your application it should be like this -configfile=conf/conf.xml
if is in another directory you should write the full path which start with your drive letter

Hey there, I also got similar shader errors, "Microsoft Media Foundation video decoding to texture disabled: graphics device is Null, only Direct3D 11 and Direct3D 12 (only on desktop) are supported." 

However, I did a clean install of the server files (and verified), installed the C++ redistributables, but the error unfortunately still popped up. Did a separate install on a second computer but still can't get it working, even with the in-game created maps (Navezgame & others) and with the mods completely removed. The maps worked completely fine on single-player.

I solved my problem with my server provider. They have to make changes on their side to make it working.

But there is new problem, server don't want to generate new RGW. Works with PREGEN6k but while setting to create new one it simply creates folder but nothing happens. Server is not crashing, it just does nothing.

Your log shows 33 mods trying to load. Delete your mods folder. Also your serverconfig.xml is messed up. Download a new one and start fresh.

Hello. I'm not sure what you mean by this.

I've setup the server as I've done in the past but now I get this "somefile.xml" error.
Where should I put the information in?
Do I open startdedicated.bat in note++ and add it somewhere or where?
