Hello SaNdicek.
This occurs due to incorrect set up of the server, please refer to https://forums.dayz.com/topic/239635-dayz-server-files-documentation/ as it should contain all the information you require to run the server successfully.

I followed all the steps from this link before I even tried to launch my server for the first time, and i keep getting this InstanceID error.

My parameters: "...\DayZServer\DayZServer_x64.exe" -config=serverDZ.cfg; -port=2302; -dologs; -adminlog; -netlog; -freezecheck; -noFilePatching

serverDZ.cfg: instanceId = 1; // DayZ server instance id to identify number of instances per box and their storage folders with persistence files

OS: Windows10

Okay, sorry if my edits have spammed your email account. Obviously it were the semicolons behind the individual parameters. :)

Hello Flattermann.
Is the .bat file placed in the folder where your server executable and server cfg is at? In case it is not, try moving it into the folder and let us know if that has resolved the issue.

Hello Geez,

Thanks for your reply. I simply made the terrible mistake of adding a semicolon (;) after each parameter. Removing them resolved the InstanceID issue.

Thanks,
Flatter
