SRCDS Steam group


Left 4 dead problem
#1
Hello, I am trying to host a l4d server but when I run it I get disconnected from it.

Here is what I get when I try to join it
Code:
] connect 3dslice.net:27017
Connecting to public(255.255.255.255:27017)
Sending UDP connect to public IP 255.255.255.255:27017
Server using lobbies #1, requiring pw no, lobby id 0
RememberIPAddressForLobby: lobby 0 from address 192.168.0.155:27017
Grace request retry for unreserved server...
Retrying public(255.255.255.255:27017)

Retrying connection to 192.168.0.155:27017, server requires lobby reservation but is unreserved.
Retrying public(255.255.255.255:27017)
Received game details information from 3dslice.net:27017...
maxplayers set to 14

Even when I join it or I think I'm joining it it says no dedicated servers found, and sometimes it just says connection failed.

The server is dmz'd so it's not a problem with the ports.

Here is the server.cfg
Code:
hostname "3dslice.net DEDICATED HTTP DOWNLOAD"
// Rcon Cvars
rcon_password “hidden"
// Server Cvars

sv_allow_color_correction 0 //Allow or disallow clients to use color correction on this server.

sv_alltalk 0 //Players can hear all other players, no team restrictions
sv_alternateticks 0 //If set, server only simulates entities on even numbered ticks.
sv_clearhinthistory 0 //Clear memory of server side hints displayed to the player.
sv_consistency 1 //Whether the server enforces file consistency for critical files
sv_contact “jigglywiggly@3dslice.net” //Contact email for server sysop


sv_lan 0
sv_region 1

// Server Logging
sv_log_onefile 0 //Log server information to only one file.
sv_logbans 1 //Log server bans in the server logs.
sv_logecho 0 //Echo log information to the console.
sv_logfile 1 //Log server information in the log file.
sv_logflush 0 //Flush the log file to disk on each write (slow).
sv_logsdir “logs” //Folder in the game directory where server logs will be stored.

//Server Rates
sv_maxcmdrate 100 //(If sv_mincmdrate is > 0), this sets the maximum value for cl_cmdrate.
sv_unlag 1
sv_maxunlag .5
sv_steamgroup "Choco Rain Killaz" //this is your group’s steam group id.. allows members to join from main menu add

z_difficulty “Impossible” “//this is the difficulty setting


And to launch it I do this
Code:
@echo off
cls
echo Protecting srcds from crashes...
echo If you want to close srcds and this script, close the srcds window and type Y depending on your language followed by Enter.
title srcds.com Watchdog
:srcds
echo (%time%) srcds started.
start /wait /high srcds.exe -console -game left4dead -ip 192.168.0.155 -port 27017 +map l4d_hospital01_apartment.bsp
echo (%time%) WARNING: srcds closed or crashed, restarting.
goto srcds

I even did this with the normal GUI installer from steam and encountered the same problems. Anyone got any ideas?

That group ID is wrong.
You need to be the owner of the group. Go the the admin page. Under profile it should be above the Abbreviation and called ID. My group has 5 number like 12345.

You can be full admin to see the group ID.

Either 255.255.255.255 is your ip or your net mask, try connecting to local host or the external ip.

How could I connect to local host if my server is hosting it? I am trying to connect from my desktop :?

What is the IP of your server? Then use that IP to connect to it, the dns is not working.

you can just connect via 3dslice.net:27017
And same problem happens even if I connect externally (doesn't matter how I connect to it, lan or wan)
I don't really understand this problem, I am already hosting an obsidian conflict server, and I've hosted CSS servers no problems via the steam GUI or via SRCDS.

Hmm actually pengy I didn't get to try that fortunately or unfortunately. After the update I tried the gui installer again and it works? Yeah I don't know why, but it works and that's all that matters. GUI installer is noob but w/e.
