Server

[Max][mu$]

Looking into it now...
@Dren I have put the CoD4 HC TDM server back on the 28994 redirect, but this time fired up the server straight from the desktop shortcut instead. Thinking it may be possible that UGCC is causing this problem by not properly mirroring the test server which was launched straight from the desktop and not UGCC.

Worth a try...

Sorry it is on a download loop again! Thank you

I may have pinned it down, but its hard to say. When I logged into the server box tonight I noticed an error popped up stating that one of our main drives was having disk failures. It only came up once, but when digging through it, I noticed things like the map mp_4hanoi, having actual files missing... yea... not good.

A couple of years ago I bought us a solid state drive for the machine that has gotten little to no use. I have since transferred the maps and mods directories to this SDD and have tested to see if everything works as it should. It indeed has been working like it should.

I even deleted a few maps from my own home gaming pc and tried connecting to make sure the redirect picks up where it should and downloads like it should and it indeed is doing its job like it should. I have also deleted part of the mod on my end to test to see if the redirect is working for those who are downloading from the mods directory. That worked like a charm as well...

Does this mean everything is fixed? I hope so, but at this point anything could happen.

Anyway, needless to say I have put us on a completely new drive like I have mentioned and on a completely new port. The new port is 28999 for the redirect. So far there have been 0 hick ups.

Please report back if there is still download looping. Hopefully, this will finally be resolved...

Saw the other posts about the looping. Taking the server down for the moment and will try to work on it.

EDIT - As I was looking into it, I saw this error:

Going to take the steps to transfer everything in regards to the CoD4 HC TDM server over to the new drive...

EDIT - Server is now back online. I have transferred the actual server itself, all files and folders, to the new drive. I have even tested the map mp_uber to see if it does the download loop problem and it didn't give me any problems. Please report back if there continues to be any problems. If there is, the next thing will be to re-download all the maps one at a time and then reinstall the maps into the usermaps directory of the server. OH YES, I am going to fix this damn server... best believe it...

Sadly looks like a full migration off C:\ will be needed.

Sadly looks like a full migration off C:\ will be needed.

I was thinking the same. Kind of wish we had that Raid 5 instead of that Raid 0 now..
