We have had working alive missions up in the past but after a few months of no mission we decided to get one back up. However, the persistence is not working.
What I have tried:
Redownloading ALIVE and Aliveserver multiple times an unblocking
plugin file

Thanks for the report. Looks like it is not saving OPCOM objectives. Are players getting returned to their position with correct state?
Can you test with a vanilla CBA/ALiVE and one of the stock ALiVE missions please? Thanks!
Um ya that is it. However, I don't see it on the main war room page nor in our group's recent operations.
And no the players are not returning to their correct state. After loading back up the mission players start at the beginning spawn with default gear and vehicles moved around have returned to their default position as well.
PS is it showing the CBA is not vanilla?
Sorry I meant only have CBA and ALiVE as mods and test a stock mission. We want to ensure persistence works and it is not a mission/mod specific issue.
Cheers
Gave it a try with just CBA, ALIVE, and @Aliveserver (i assume you meant this too) with a demo mission. Still the problem persists. In fact it wouldnt get past the Alive player Logistics- saving.
The mission saves but then we we load it back up its like starting over.
I did notice that in my profile it lists the operation BUT the mission does not appear on the main war room page as a recent operation? Not sure if this would clue anyone onto the problem?
*we did update to the new plugin from the other day
RPT and plugin log from your vanilla test please, thanks!
Are you using respawnOnStart = -1?
Ran the demo Air Assault Mission w/ @Alive and @CBA_A3 only
Plugin: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/108970039/aliveplugin_2015-11-11_01-05.txt
RPT: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/108970039/arma3server_2015-11-11_01-02-29.rpt
Plugin log looks fine.
Server rpt doesn't match the time of the plugin log though.
Hmm, does this one match. I thought the one before did.

These are our log files for today
We tried updating the plugin
Removing all of the modules and re-adding
Loading Alive sample missions (GhostOne added above)
All with no luck.
The only thing I am seeing is the bin config errors for the default setting of the placement modules and an error opening a config file in the plugin log. I don't know if they are known errors or if they mean anything. The game and log says everything saved successfully.
In game we waited for a task to generate, got in a HEMMT truck drove it around, parked it in a hangar. Got out of the truck then moved around some more.
Clicked on server save and exit. Closed down the whole server.
Reloaded arma and the mission.
The mission started from scratch like it was the first time.
Could it be something wrong with our connection to the war room?
I don't see @AliveServer in the mod line?
I don't see ALiVE Data init. Have you added the Data module? Have you set persistence on your other mission modules?
Did you test the Quick Start mission included with ALiVE?
We have double and triple checked that the @AliveServer is in our mod line but yes it does not appear to be listed in the RPT mod line. The @aliveserver archive download was "unblocked". Any ideas why it wouldnt appear to be starting?
Also where is the "Quick Start Mission"? I do not see it with the demo missions........
Also the mission is listed under my profile's recent operations but it does not appear to be listed in the group's recent operations which is where I would guess it would grab the save state from?
I'm pretty sure I'm having the exact same issue. My personal stats are saving to the War Room no problem but when I close the server and re-open it, the mission starts me at default. With default gear in the default location.
War Room knows I'm in mission but the mission resets like I've started over from scratch.
Here is my thread on that: http://alivemod.com/forum/1527-registering-server-questions
The quick start mission file is named basic.stratis.
Your launch params are listed as
"== arma3server.exe -client -connect=127.0.0.1 -port=2322 -password=**** "-mod=@ALIVE;@AGM;@cba_a3;@allinarmaterrainpack;@task_force_radio;@panthera;@AlRayakV002;@75_Ghost_OPFOR;@75th_Ghost;@lingor3;@HiddenIdentityPackV2;@JI;@MBG_killhouses_A3;@RDS;@sthud;@EM (NEED MP TEST);Heli;Kart;Mark"Kart;Mark"
Please test with @CBA_A3, @ALiVE, @ALiVEServer only
We've tested with just CBA, ALIVE, ALIVEserver with the same results.
Please send the RPT and plugin log for the quick start mission. Thanks!
