Server crashed, or cfg problems??

Post by mike2587 »

Please someone help me,

I just got a server yesterday and all of a sudden its down, and i was going through the files changing some stuff, like the modt file, thats nothing other than the main screen when you login to the server right? Also changing the map and what not, in the server cfg and the map cycle, could someone please help me, i don't know what happened.

And if you can't figure anythign out, could you please tell me what should be in the server.cfg/mapcycle.cfg and any other important files to getting the server up and running again, i would really appreciate it,

Thanks a lot.!

Mike

motd.txt is what's shown to clients when they connect, yes. mapcycle.txt is where you list the maps you want to be in the mapcycle. server.cfg controls some other settings such as your server name, etc.

You quite possibly just deleted an important line in server.cfg, such as the one that executes the admin mod configuration line. Did you make a backup first?
