Linux server quick and easy install and start script

[Arandas]

I have come up with a very simple script for people who just wish to have a TeamSpeak 3 server up and running in minutes without hassle, also great for people who are unfamiliar with Linux.

This automated script should have a server up and running within seconds. I will also update this script on the fly as new server versions are released. This script will only install current/stable server releases. This script can be run as any user that has access permissions, this does not have to be (and should not be) root.

This script has been tested on Debian 6, CentOS 4.x 5.x and Ubuntu 10.x 11.x, but should compatible with most distros.

Open an SSH connection to your server and issue the following commands, one at a time:

x86 (32bit) Server Version:

wget http://www.tsdns.eu/scripts/ts-install-x86.sh

chmod +x ts-install-x86.sh

./ts-install-x86.sh

amd64 (64bit) Server Version:

wget http://www.tsdns.eu/scripts/ts-install-amd64.sh

chmod +x ts-install-amd64.sh

./ts-install-amd64.sh

If you are unsure of your system architecture (x86/amd64), use the following command to check:

uname -a

If you are still unsure of your architecture, use the x86 version.

After running this script, your TeamSpeak server should be up and running, This script is only for performing a clean server installation, please remove any old server installations before using this script. This script will not perform server updates, however I am currently working on another simple script for this.

Here is the script code:

x86:

#!/bin/sh
# TeamSpeak easy installation and startup script

cd $HOME
wget http://teamspeak.gameserver.gamed.de/ts3/releases/beta-30/teamspeak3-server_linux-x86-3.0.0-beta30.tar.gz
tar -xvf teamspeak3-server_linux-x86-3.0.0-beta30.tar.gz
rm -f teamspeak3-server_linux-x86-3.0.0-beta30.tar.gz
mv teamspeak3-server_linux-x86 teamspeak
cd teamspeak
chmod +x ts3server_startscript.sh ts3server_linux_x86
clear
$HOME/teamspeak/./ts3server_startscript.sh start
echo "Retrieving server status..."
$HOME/teamspeak/./ts3server_startscript.sh status
exit 0
done

amd64:

#!/bin/sh
# TeamSpeak easy installation and startup script

cd $HOME
wget http://teamspeak.gameserver.gamed.de/ts3/releases/beta-30/teamspeak3-server_linux-amd64-3.0.0-beta30.tar.gz
tar -xvf teamspeak3-server_linux-amd64-3.0.0-beta30.tar.gz
rm -f teamspeak3-server_linux-amd64-3.0.0-beta30.tar.gz
mv teamspeak3-server_linux-amd64 teamspeak
cd teamspeak
chmod +x ts3server_startscript.sh ts3server_linux_amd64
clear
$HOME/teamspeak/./ts3server_startscript.sh start
echo "Retrieving server status..."
$HOME/teamspeak/./ts3server_startscript.sh status
exit 0
done
