Title: Dedicated server Post by: Nqss on April 23, 2011, 01:25:04 PM i was trying to host a server to test
and i failed many times At first I was using hamachi for direct connection and people was trying to connect to me through hamachi ip good thing - there is a connection and hamachi does its job well bad thing - server which was created was LAN type even sv_lan 0 won't help Then , i've tryed synergy dedicated server At first i've got messages like "Missing file C:/Program/gameinfo.txt" Then i created that folder and placed only .txt file , doesnt work then i placed there entire mod , and it worked ,BUT , i couldn't connect to myself The error message is saying that i've got wrong directory ( ex is invalid , must be program) Quote COM_CheckGameDirectory: game directories don't match (exterminatus / Program) How the heck should i manage this tool to search for this mod in sourcemod files?

The problem where the server thinks it is a LAN server even when sv_lan is 0 is usually where the server cannot communicate with Valve's master game servers (their is another bunch of port numbers then need to be open in any firewalls for it to do this). I don't have the port ranges to hand, you'll need to search the help on steampowered.com for them, beware there is more than 1 support article about this topic and some are out of date or incomplete. Also changing level via the console once the server has started has been known to help. The dedicated server should just list files from the source mods folder. the C:/Program/ part looks like a path is being used in the command line but not quoted (you need to put quote marks around any paths with spaces in them). This happens a lot with files and folders inside C:/Program Files/ . This is why I try and install programs anywhere other then "program files" when i have the option.
