Nexuiz Startup Scripts (1.0.0)

Startup scripts for the Nexuiz game server software - uses the "screen" command to manage the session. This also restarts the Nexuiz server process if it crashes.

Official support sites: Official Github Repo


These start up the Nexuiz server at boot time with a "screen" process.

  1. Copy nexuiz into /etc/init.d - make sure it is executable
  2. Copy startnexuiz into /root/Nexuiz - make sure it is executable
  3. Run "systemctl enable nexuiz" (only needed once, will stick)
  4. Run "systemctl start nexuiz" - starts Nexuiz server without restarting the OS.

When you want to view the Nexuiz console, just enter "screen -r" in your shell.

To disconnect from the Nexuiz console just press CTRL-A CTRL-D. This will leave it running and you can reconnect to it again.

I have only tested this on a Ubuntu 16.04 server...

If you want to turn off the server respawning type "touch /root/Nexuiz/nostart". To reenable it type "rm /root/Nexuiz/nostart".


Note: If you don't already have the "screen" tool installed you will need to install it by "sudo apt-get install screen".
