Errors: Incorrect price blob version! Update your server!

[Mr.LOVER]

Hi im new to making any server, I just used a guide to make counter strike source server,
well i did a little different than guide said, what i did is as follows,

1. downloaded HLDS Update Tool from http://steampowered.com/download/hldsupdatetool.exe

2. installed it to a directory and used it with a shortcut + command line G:\Installed\SRCDS\updater\HldsUpdateTool.exe -command update -game "Counter-Strike Source" -dir G:\Installed\SRCDS"

3. look here i saw it could take a long long time on my connection to download all files through this update tool, so i have previously installed counter strike source in my pc and i just copied all cstrike, hl2, bin, platform folders from my installed CSS into server installation folder and than i restarted the HldsUpdateTool.exe with command line,
It just downloaded few files this time and skipped all other files that i had put in folders already,

4. I started srcds.exe with commandline "G:\Installed\SRCDS\srcds.exe -console -game cstrike -tickrate 33 -ip 192.168.1.171 -port 27015 -maxplayers 10 +map de_dust2

now that i got some errors and i can't find my server listed on http://www.gametiger.net as this site was told me by my guide to check my server if it is on this site then it is working, but it's not listed on that site,

i find errors in my server, as i am adding image of my server when i start it,
so i really will be thankfull to you if you solve it for me please tell me what i do now? do i have to download all files by HldsUpdateTool.exe again ?

Here's what todo:

1. Update the HldsUpdateTool.exe(simply by double cliking on it).

2. Then run the HldsUpdateTool.exe with this command line(or shortcut)

Code:

G:\Installed\SRCDS\updater\HldsUpdateTool.exe -command update -game "Counter-Strike Source" -dir G:\Installed\SRCDS" -verify_all

It will take a while before finishing.

But! Try 1. before going to 2.

And test if the first one works, before going to the second one.

I have tested both but it still giving same errors as are shown in my previous post image, both of your ways leads to a crash of update tool, it crashes and creates a new crash dump file everytime i run it either directly or with a command line,
is there any way to check all my files by this update tool or with any other software to see if all files are exactly same as original server files and if some files are change than it can update those files only ?

Maybe because there was a quote insite it.

Try this:

Code:

G:\Installed\SRCDS\updater\HldsUpdateTool.exe -command update -game "Counter-Strike Source" -dir G:\Installed\SRCDS -verify_all

-verify_all - does check all files.

I don't think the dynamic pricing is supported by steam anymore,which is why none of the servers out there have it.

[b]ok but what is the solution for me now?

[realchamp]

1. How do the HldsUpdateTool.exe crash?


2. Use mp_dynamicpricing 0 in your autoexec.cfg.

fine, that error is gone, thanks a lot,
now how can i test my server if i don't have any friend to invite to my server ?
i mean i can give you my address but it's not what i mean, i mean is there any website or tool that can test if server is online or not ?

[realchamp]

Yes. Use HLSW.

It's a program. (http://www.hlsw.org)

try deleting the registry.blob, then update server using hldsupdatetool.exe. Usually fixes 9/10 things for me.
