Error loading several needed libraries, server failing to launch.

I get this response from running arkmanager run and am looking for help on how to fix

From what I can tell it has the correct path for the ARK server itself, but files like ARK/ShooterGame/Binaries/Linux/steamservice.so do not exist in the ARK server directory that it installed.

SteamCMD was installed with the manual command specified in https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/SteamCMD#Manually. Trying to run this on an Oracle cloud server, Ubuntu 20.04.1.

What software are you using to emulate x86-64 on ARM64?

The failed dlopens are normal. It looks like the real issue is the unimplemented opcode error, and the (possibly subsequent) assertion failures.

What software are you using to emulate x86-64 on ARM64?

That's a good question; I don't really know what the VM is doing (This is a cloud server, though a pretty beefy one) under the hood.

It looks like Box86 https://github.com/ptitSeb/box86 is doing the emulation.

I wonder how well trying to run the ARK server under a cross-architecture QEMU docker container https://github.com/multiarch/qemu-user-static (using the multiarch/qemu-user-static:aarch64-x86_64 image) will work?

Edit: it appears that multiarch/qemu-user-static only has images for x86-64 hosts, and not for arm64 hosts.

However, installing qemu-user-static and binfmt-support under Ubuntu should be equivalent to the multiarch/qemu-user-static register action, and from there you should theoretically be able to use an x86_64 docker image to run the ARK server.
