cant execute maps

[Awesome Applesauce]

My server won't execute map files, or something. I'm way new at this and have only had my server running propperly twice. Now I see this in my servers consule: "exec: couldn't exec arena_lumberyard.cfg". And now its not working properly. Its not a port problem, like I said the server has worked before, its connected to the steam stervers, my firewalls are off, and my router is in the dmz, I've tried updating it, and I'm using the defalt server config file from: http://forums.srcds.com/viewtopic/5439.

Please help, I have no idea what is going wrong! Many thanks in advance.

That's a standard error. I just means you don't have a special cfg file for the map. Don't worry about it

sounds like a "port forwarding" problem try (just temporary)hooking up your game server directly to the net (without a router) if you see your on the "master server list" you know its a issue with the router
check out "portforwarding.com" they will give you lots of info to set up port forwarding. you have to set up a static ip address in your computer and forward the correct ports. i had the same problem

Thanks, my gateway is a 2wire, and its doesn't actually go into DMZ mode, it has its own DMZPlus mode that supposidly opens all the ports for my server but not another computet. Thanks for the help, it took a litle while, but I was able to open the correct ports, and the port checking tool that portforward.com has says 27015 is open. So now all I have to do is see if my server is actually going to work. wooo.

Thanks for your help, I realize that I could have gone to sevaral dozen other forums for the same help, but thanks for your individual time!
