[0.16.22] Unable to start dedicated server

Post by Innectic »

Since the recent changes requiring glibc 2.18+, I have been unable to run Factorio on Centos 7.

I've compiled glibc 2.18 myself in /opt.
Command being used to start game:

Code: Select all

/opt/glibc-2.18/lib/ld-2.18.so --library-path /opt/glibc-2.18/lib ./bin/x64/factorio --create test.zip
Error:

Code: Select all

 0.000  Error Util.cpp:49: Error configuring paths: There is no package core in /usr/share/factorio. Deduced executable directory: /opt/glibc-2.18/lib, read data: __PATH__system-read-data__, write data: __PATH__system-write-data__
I've tried other solutions on the forums for this, none have worked so far.

Interesting, try

Code: Select all

/opt/glibc-2.18/lib/ld-2.18.so --library-path /opt/glibc-2.18/lib ./bin/x64/factorio --create test.zip --executable-path ./bin/x64/factorio

That seems to have worked! Can't believe it was that simple

I'm both angry, and happy :lol:
