Installing Screen on Putty

[halohalo]

Hey guys, i have installed screen on Putty, but then, how i start the server or open the screen? I coudnt find any command for it, i tried "screen" only but it only shows a black screen for more commands ;/

 

Hope someone can help me out

 

Thank you

screen -r for resuming a detached one or screen -x for starting a new one

 

 

and im almost certain screen --help will display all possible commands

The problem is that if i start usa gameserver on putty then i cant use any other command to close it like: logout, exit, nothing...anyway to close it and keep it on? or to fix it

[pwesty]

the startService.sh is a script that was made for that reason which was released with the german files in the main folder

Its fixed, we had to made "startx" and then we have be able to start the Screen^^
