How to Set Up CSMM on Your 7 Days to Die Server

CSMM is a free web dashboard for 7 Days to Die server admin. AleForge does not host it — you connect your server to csmm.7d2d.net yourself.

You need telnet enabled, Alloc’s Server Fixes, and a CSMM account.

Enable telnet

1. Stop the server
2. On Startup, set Telnet Password
3. Restart the server

See Enable telnet for port details.

Install Alloc’s Server Fixes

CSMM needs Alloc’s for player data and the live map.

1. Download the build that matches your game version from the Alloc’s Server Fixes site
2. Stop the server
3. Open File Manager
4. Extract the archive so folders land under Mods/:
   • Mods/Allocs_CommandExtensions/
   • Mods/Allocs_CommonFunc/
   • Mods/Allocs_WebAndMapRendering/
5. Start the server and check Console for Alloc’s load messages

Same upload flow as Install mods.

Enable the web dashboard

1. Stop the server
2. Open File Manager → serverconfig.xml
3. Set WebDashboardEnabled to true and EnableMapRendering to true
4. Save and start the server

Create a web token

1. With the server running, open panel Console
2. Add a token — use your own name and password. The password must be at least 10 characters. The 0 at the end is required:

webtokens add MyTokenName MySecureTokenPass 0

Check existing tokens with webtokens list.

Find your web API port

The port in serverconfig.xml is not always correct on game hosts. Check Console after startup for:

Started Webserver on 8090.

Use that port in CSMM. You can also open http://YOUR_SERVER_IP:PORT/legacymap — if Alloc’s map loads, the port is right.

Server IP is on Dashboard (no port). Telnet port is on Startup.

Add the server in CSMM

1. Log in at csmm.7d2d.net
2. Click Add Server
3. Fill in:

CSMM field	AleForge value
Name	Your choice
Server IP	Dashboard IP/hostname — no port
Web API port	From Started Webserver on … in Console
Authorization name	Token name from webtokens add
Authorization token	Token password from webtokens add

4. Save

Some CSMM forms also ask for telnet IP, port, and password — use Dashboard IP, Telnet Port from Startup, and Telnet Password from Startup.

Official docs: CSMM quick start.

Troubleshooting

• CSMM cannot connect → Check Telnet Password on Startup and that Alloc’s loaded in Console.
• No map / player data → All three Alloc’s folders must be under Mods/. WebDashboardEnabled must be true.
• Invalid token → Run webtokens list, create a new token with webtokens add … 0, update CSMM.
• Wrong web API port → Use the Started Webserver on … line from Console, not a default guess. See Additional ports if needed.
