Trying to get TF2 Arena mode working on both my TF2 servers

Trying to get TF2 Arena mode working on both my TF2 servers
The problem
When switched into an Arena map the server wont start the round
it keeps everyone as Hostages on spectator
2 players 20 players 24 players = will all be spectator hostages

Server 1 is a 24 Slot running sourcemod
Server 2 is a 4 slot @ home test server at home running sourcemod
Both of them like taking players as hostages when they switch into TF2 Arena Mode and maps

I cant see why
tf/cfg/arena_config.cfg

Code:

maxplayers 2
hostname "Team Fortress 2 @home test | Arena Server"
mapcyclefile "arena_mapcycle.txt"

and
tf/arena_mapcycle.cfg

Code:

arena_lumberyard
arena_ravine
arena_badlands
arena_granary
arena_well
arena_watchtower
arena_sawmill
arena_nucleus

are not causing the round to start even if the servers have plenty of players waiting to go kill each other
However I do need the server to switch out of Arena mode to play normal maps too

Would also someone who has a working Arena mode post there cfg files so I can take a look at them [remove your passwords]

ah man, I feel you pain (sorta). Just wait a bit maybe, considering the update came out just last night and it's been screwing with a lot of servers. Mine just randomly crashes because of an "entitity error" in any map I put on .

TF2 Sniper and Spy update has upset a lot of players inc server admins due its broken alot of server add-on mods
I just had to disable quite a few SourceMod Add-ons [TF2 Ammopacks + TF2 Medipacks + [TF2] Spawn Sentry on death + Advertisements - MySQL Updated 2/5/09] due they crash the server or just not working anymore
