did test it myself, subscribed development branch ArmA3 Tools,
created test key, loaded it together with other keys,
then started server...

exact same behavior as described above in links

server shows never online

download this keys https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B1gWUNu0kwK1YldoLTMyTDl4eWc&usp=sharing start them together
server wont show online and each time you switch off server console you have to kill process manual.

"Q-Net_test.bikey" name of key made with development branch of Arma 3 Tools

Hmm, I'm wondering if its something similar that I've encountered over the past day

I've used both the Stable and latest Performance EXE's (Windows)

If you check your RPT while the server is started, do you see the message that it's connected to the 'Steam Servers'? I don't, unless I remove the offending 'bikey' from the 'keys' folder of the dedicated server.

example - end of RPT file

13:59:09 Initializing Steam server - Game Port: 2302, Steam Query Port: 2303

The next line, if successful would show (but doesn't, unless I remove the bikey causing the issue):

14:03:00 Connected to Steam servers

I've also noticed that if I kill/terminiate/end task the service via the 'Wait chain' I get a crash dump appear (if I just kill the service via end tasking the exe process I don't)

What I mean is this:

  1. Resource Monitor
  2. Select the service - in this case the a3 server exe
  3. Right-click it and select 'Analyse Wait Chain
  4. Select all the processes listed
  5. Select 'End Task'

A crash dump/rpt then occurs.

If I go the normal route and just 'End Process Tree', the server exe from the Resource Monitor, I don't get the dumps.

exact this behavior occurs too

example - end of RPT file

13:59:09 Initializing Steam server - Game Port: 2302, Steam Query Port: 2303

The next line, if successful would show (but doesn't, unless I remove the bikey causing the issue):

14:03:00 Connected to Steam servers

switching back to stable ArmA3 Tools resolves issue

I just created a key with dev-branch Arma 3 Tools and it fixed the issue by naming it differently than the old bikey was, which was created with previous stable Arma 3 Tools.

today's update fixed the issue !

thank you

Using exactly same keys in the folder just created with today's update? In changelog nothing says about any changes with anything related to DSSignFile or DSCreateKey or whatever they are called exactly.
