Hi guys,

1. Sorry for my bad english... ^^


I made a server like the tutorial for windows, the server runns fine with the standart startparameter. But then is the server only LAN. So, I added +ip ******** and i get this error:

Engine Error

Couldn`t allocate dedicated UDP port

I already reinstalled my srcds, but still the same error.
I opened all the ports i need on my router, I should know how, I had with my old router and pc a server running. Now: New pc and new router, idk right but my router is too stupid and my windows (speacial version) could be the 2. problem, i dont have a windowsfirewall, (only) ZoneAlarm.
And i have a static ip. ...



Plz can someone help me?


Thank you very much!

Search for router or portforwarding and you get all the answers you need

Get rid of the +ip ******* command.

I have opened my ports like a tuturial from portforward.com.


To the +ip command:

I ever check out my ip at whatsmyip.org and add it then..

Does someone know that problem with the same router like me?

A long time ago, did i had a server running (with opened ports...) with my old router.

You must use the internal IP not the external when behind a router. So type in ipconfig in cmd and the ip (usually starts with 192) is what you use for the IP command, which is -ip not +ip btw.

I added my internal IP and I dont get this error anymore.

But my Server doesnt show up at the steamserver... (My friends cant join)

sv_lan = 0 ...

Idk what the problem is.. The ports are opened..

Show a screen shot of port forwarding.

Ive opened all aviable Steam Ports..

The other Screen needs to much space ill add him to the next post.


Edit:


The Server does connect to the Steamservers:

Connection to Steam servers successful.

I started the server again, and it worked! A wonder ^^ lol.

I didnt changed the startparameter or anything.
