My server wont start

phoenix92

Hello :-)

My server doesn't start, it actually has never started at least once :-p

Here is the console output when I try to launch it :

<i>Press Tab to open the console window
Press Ctrl-C to exit
Build 235
Setting breakpad minidump AppID = 4920
Steam_: BugslayerUtil.DLL not found
Connected to Steam servers
Web server running at localhost:82
[Server] Script Error #1: File not found:
Call stack:
Loading 'maps/ns2_veil.level'
Error: Couldn't load 'maps/ns2_veil.level'
VAC Enabled</i>

Always the same error message, whatever I change in the command line.

I tried to check the game by running <i>app_update 4920 validate</i> , and it says its allright.

So now I dont know what else to do. What is strange is that the server seems to be up, because clients connect to it, but fail :


<i>Client connecting (x.x.x.x)
Client disconnected (x.x.x.x Invalid data
... etc...</i>

Any clue someone ?

The server app id is 4940. Try that.
Run this command in steamcmd: app_update 4940 verify

Valve's page says app_id is 4920, not 4940 ; that's why I chose this number.

However, I'll try with 4940 and keep you in touch with the result

4920 is the client + listenserver AppID, while 4940 is the dedicated server AppID.
