Nitrado user here, and went through all the suggestions in this forum:

• #debug von doesn't show me any "Public:" IP, I've tried the" Private:" one, just in case, no luck
• the -ip= in the startup is just one and is the same as the one we access from the game client
• I've tried the second-last IP tracert give me when target the game IP
• The group name is =15BN= and the "=" is not a special character causing problem because I did connected from another server to the same group

Would be possible to have ALiVEPlugin.dll or an option in it to log into aliveplugin_*.txt the external IP through query like http://www.google.com/search?q=my+ip ? I guess this would help me to enter the right IP into the War Room

Edit: according to http://dev.withsix.com/issues/74416#note-3 you query already, so could you add a print of the resultin public IP in the log?

Thanks,

My bad! At step 2 you say "Ensure the ALiVEServer addon has been downloaded into the Arma root folder", which I didn't do, it was in a different root. I've just created an empty @aliveserver\ sibling to arma3server.exe and it now works.

Cheers.

I get this debugging with Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 a crash of arma3server.exe using your latest ALiVEPlugIn.dll while following the Validating the setup instructions in the War Room. I did choose "ALiVE | Quick Start (COOP 9)" at step 4.
The original dialog from windows states: "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library", "This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in a unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information.".
If I choose to break with the debugger, it points out "Steam\tier0_s.dll" doesn't have debug symbols.
The DLL file has been unblocked, the alive.cfg file is in C:\Users\alef\AppData\Local\ALiVE\
