GSP Windows Agent

Cygwin-based agent that lets the GameServer Panel manage Windows Server 2019/2022 hosts. It mirrors the Linux agent feature set: signed RPC transport, GNU Screen session management, and SteamCMD-aware installers.

Highlights

  • One-click installer (Install/onceinstall_agent.bat) that bootstraps Cygwin, required packages, and the gameserver service account.
  • Task Scheduler entry that keeps the agent running after reboots.
  • Helper scripts (agent_conf.sh, rebase_post_ins.bat, etc.) for maintaining the environment.
  • Markdown documentation under documentation/agent-guide.md.

Quick start

  1. Clone or download the repository to C:\\gsp-agent.
  2. Right-click Install\\onceinstall_agent.bat → “Run as administrator”.
  3. Open the bundled Cygwin terminal and configure the agent:
    cd /OGP
    bash agent_conf.sh -p "gameserverPassword"
    
  4. Edit C:\\OGP\\Cfg\\Config.pm so it matches the server entry you created in the GameServer Panel.
  5. Start the “OGP agent start on boot” scheduled task (or reboot).

Startup and auto-update

Use C:\\OGP64\\agent_start.bat or C:\\OGP64\\OGP\\Install\\agent_start.bat to start the agent manually. The launcher checks the bundled Cygwin root, including C:\\OGP64\\bin\\bash.exe, then falls back to C:\\cygwin64\\bin\\bash.exe and C:\\cygwin\\bin\\bash.exe. Manual failures pause by default; set GSP_AGENT_NO_PAUSE=1 for service wrappers that should not block.

C:\\OGP\\Cfg\\bash_prefs.cfg controls optional restart-time agent updates:

agent_auto_update=0
agent_update_repo_url=http://forge.runlevelsystems.com/dev/GSP.git
agent_update_branch=Panel-unstable
agent_update_raw_url=http://forge.runlevelsystems.com/dev/GSP/raw/branch/Panel-unstable/Agent-Windows/OGP64/OGP/ogp_agent.pl

When agent_auto_update=1, the launcher downloads to a temporary file, rejects HTML/404/empty/non-Perl content, validates with perl -c, backs up the current ogp_agent.pl, and rolls back if validation fails. This restart-time updater may replace only /OGP/ogp_agent.pl; it must not touch Cfg/ files or other installer-generated state.

  • GSP PHP panel that issues commands to the agents.
  • GSP-Agent-Linux Linux counterpart with systemd service files.
