Server issues

c.s 1.6


Hello, I'm slamordain from Zombies On Drugs, and I have a question. we keep getting this error from two of our servers.

:[2011-07-01 22:57:32] Assault: restarting. Reason. Fatal error - couldn't allocate dedicated server IP port

I don't understand what that means...

It sounds like the IP and port combination your server is trying to use is already in use. Is this for a CS 1.6 server running on one of our unmanaged VDS's or unmanaged full machines?

It was happening every 4 minutes as you can tell.

any suggestions or help would be helpful

Thanks,

we are renting one of your box's Idk if its unmanaged or not

[TimeX]

If the game server has its own control panel, it would be a managed server. If you have access to the OS on the machine, it would be unmanaged.

Which one it is (managed or unmanaged) can make a large difference on what the problem may be and how to address it. Is this problem dropping players, or does it just show the message in the console?

[Slamordain]

We have control over our box, but its not dropping players, It drops the entire server but our other two server have not been affected. Do you have a better way for me to talk to you instead of doing it on the forums?

Where are you seeing this error exactly?

[Slamordain]

Its in the Logs, in the hlsm launcher.

[Edge100x]

I'm not familiar with the hlsm launcher. What happens when you run these servers standalone?

[Slamordain]

uhm, do you have a way I can talk to you thats better then using a forums??

Software related questions are limited to the forums here, as other methods are too limited and don't allow others to help.

If you aren't sure how to run a server manually, try following the CS 1.6 guides we have here that match the OS you are using: http://www.nfoservers.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=67

[Slamordain]

omg.... thats lame.... I guess nvm. I'll let the other owner handle it because its in his name.

Forums are definitely the best place to talk about a software issue like this.

Since this is an unmanaged machine question, I'll pop this thread over to that forum.
