Can't Use Persistence [SOLVED]

    Hi all, it's been a while ( a long while) since I started use you mod, now I started to play that with friends..
    It's like a week that I search on the Web and here to get able to use ALiVE Persistance but I really don't understand something..

    I've setted Persistence "ON" in all the ALiVE module in my Mission, then I start with a locale server and play with friends, all go fine.
    When players stops use to exit the game through the ALiVE menu "Player Save & Exit" and when I turn off the server I click on "Server Save & Exit".
    ---I'm not using a "Dedicated Server", I just host from the Game---

    No error messages or any other bad things seems to pop up.

    But HOW TO restart the game? Do I have just to Host the Same mission?
    If I do, the time/position of players is resetted so I think it's not working..

    How can I manage this to work without a Dedicated Server/WarRoom Account?
    Thanks

    You need to follow the instructions on the War Room server setting... here is an excerpt on validating your install:

    Validating the setup (optional)
Step 1 	Windows Users: Download and install BareTail (log monitor) 	
Step 2 	Launch Arma3server.exe (or your Linux dedicated server) with the @ALiVE and @ALiVEServer in the mod line on your dedicated server. Ensure the ALiVEServer addon has been downloaded into the Arma root folder 	
Step 3 	Launch your arma3.exe as normal (with @ALiVE but no need for @ALiVEServer on your client) 	
Step 4 	Run any MP mission (with the Database Module placed) on your dedicated local server and connect with your client, go into the game 	
Step 5 	(on your dedicated server) In baretail (or Linux text editor) open ARMA3ROOT/@ALiVEServer/aliveplugin_DATESTAMP.log 	
Step 6 	(on your dedicated server) In baretail (or Linux text editor) open Arma3Server RPT usually users/username/appdata/local/Arma3/ 	
Step 7 	Check for the arma3server.rpt for CONNECTED TO DATABASE OK 	
Step 8 	Go to alivemod.com War Room, under Live Data Feed you should see a message stating your mission was launched. If not, check Your Group page.
