[TF2] IP/Port issue?

Post by phaiz »

I've been trying to setup a 3rd game server on my vds but keep running into this error message when running the startup script.

WARNING: NNET_OpenSocket: bind: Cannot assign requested address
Couldn't allocate any server IP port
cat: hlds.27660.pid: No such file or directory

Not sure if the 3rd line is related but I don't recognize it so I included it.
I've tried using both the IP and the Gateway IP, and I've tried using different ports.
Here is part of my startup script

Code: Select all

chrt -r 20 /home/steam/servers/tft/srcds_run -game tf -ip 162.248.88.103 -port 27016

Just want to add that if I use an IP from one of the other two servers, it changes the port but otherwise works normally. I bought this latest IP several days ago so I am assuming it is ready to use. However this makes me think it IS an issue with the IP.

Have you added the IP address to the network adapter inside your OS? Instructions are linked in the event posted after your upgrade (and are in http://www.nfoservers.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=68).

Yeah that was the issue. Is my first time needing to do that step and didn't see it in the events thing. Thanks for the help!
