FastDL Isn't Working Anymore?

Post by Wrath »

Okay, I've had my server for over a month now, and FastDL has worked fine. However, just a few hours ago, something began to not work properly. According to my players, quite a few models that they had previously been able to see in the PointShop are now errors. Many of the files are not downloading despite them being in the FastDL server file as they always have been. I checked through the FastDL lua file to see if there was a problem, and I had found one, the quotes around the numbers weren't closed, so I fixed that. My players were then able to see more of the models, but still not all of them. Below is what is placed in the FastDL lua, so if someone notices anything off, please tell me:

Code: Select all

=======================

Also, another thing. Yesterday I added an addon from the Garry's Mod Steam Workshop, and it worked perfectly fine. However, I decided that I wanted to delete it because I personally didn't like it. I went into my FileZilla client and deleted the folder that was placed in addons and removed it from the FastDL. However, the item still appears in the Traitor menu (it was a T item). Any idea on how to get rid of this?

Thanks for any help for both questions!

Your fastdl file appears to be correct. Just to be sure I'd double check that the models are still on the server and in the correct directories. I'd also enable -condebug via the "server control" tab in your control panel so you can view your console.log file. This file will detail if some of the workshop content is failing to download.

DId you actually remove it from the workshop collection? If not, it's just going to re-download upon server boot.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought Workshop items downloaded from the workshop and didn't require FastDL?

You are correct, but except for maps, you will still need to include a resource.AddWorkship for the client to download them.

Thanks for the help! I'm not sure how, but the FastDL problem seemed to fix itself on its own. Not sure how, but whatever. xD

Also, I deleted the file from the collection and it was fine. Completely forgot to do that the first time I tried. xD

Thanks!
