Executing server config "server.cfg"

Hopefully someone knows how to fix this

Do you have the server config in the right place? /main/?

Yeap its inside main

Stupid question: Have you got a map in the levelrotation?

I didnt think it did, okay it can find the file now but now it says it can't be read

Rightclick-->Properties-->Uncheck "Read-Only"

Still say's that it couldn't be read :\

How about

start_map_rotate

?

I don't blame you for not knowing, but so many people answering and nobody told you to start the rotation...

How about

start_map_rotate

?

^

This

 

And can you post your parameters?

And can you post your parameters?

He's running the executable directly. His mistake was not creating a shortcut or batch to add the startup parameters.

Hm, ok...

But I prefer a shortcut or a batch.

Yes i am? I have a shortcut with these paramaters,

 +set net_queryPort 27015 +set net_port 27016 +set net_masterServerPort 27017 +set sv_config "server.cfg" +start_

Try the standart one:

+set net_queryPort 27015 +set net_port 27016 +set net_masterServerPort 27017 +set sv_config "server.cfg" +start_map_rotate

 

EDIT: Well you forget to add the whole parameter:

+start_map_rotate

It wont let me type the whole thing, it stops at start_

It said somehting about Map rotation Mnie is "default" Whats the layout like on mw3 for map rotation?

And can you post your parameters?

you don't need either :/

If the address is in to many subfolders and is quite long. Try just moving your server files folder to drive "C" at root location.

Do this and your shortcut parameters should accept the whole options line.

Yeah but now i get this error

Executing server config "server.cfg"
Error: Dedicated Server Config "server.cfg" could not be read
Could not load map rotation "". Shutting down

You don't have a server config file named "server.cfg" on "admin" folder.

You can get dedicated server config files templates on the dedicated server tutorial:

viewtopic.php?f=30&t=11583

 

Remember that you need a server config file, a playlist and atleast one recipe file.

Even with it in admin still says same thing

Meh... that UI ^ is lame

 

Simple and effective

Even with it in admin still says same thing

It says

Error: Dedicated Server Config "server.cfg" could not be read

?

Are you SURE that you have "server.cfg" on "admin" folder?

It's not server.cfg.txt, it has to be server.cfg

Yeap its server.cfg in admin folder

Fixed. File was named server.cfg.cfg (hidden file extensions)

But OP has a Thomson TG series router

Funny, I managed to connect to an IW5M server running on port 80, wich seems to be the only port that router opens (no other port for query though)
