[Solved] Alien Swarm - srcds crashes on map change/restart (Picture added)
#1
Basic Info:
Server OS : Windows 7 32-bit.
Processor: i5 750, 3.6Ghz.
Ram: 3.5 gb usable (from 4gb).
Game: Alien Swarm.
Startup Command: "D:\Programs\HLServer\alienswarm\srcds.exe" -console -game swarm +ip 10.0.0.1 -port 27015 +map lobby +exec server.cfg
Admin Mods: Metamod->Sourcemod->Alien Swarm Tools + High Ping Kicker + AFK Manager + all the plugins that come with sourcemod.

Problem: After I play the game with friends and we complete a misson, and i press start (where you get exp) and then continue a red note on top right of the screen appears saying that connection to the server lost. My frineds got the same note, so I go to the server console and it doesnt responds. after 3 seconds of looking at it (at the console) it disappears (crahses)
the last lines in the commands are allways :
unknown command "scr_centertime"
script not found (scripts/vscripts/mapspawn.nut)
The server may crash in 15min and may crash in 1.5hrs.
I have to notice that the red note appears everytime i change map but only for 1/2 sec and disappears and everything works fine and we change the map. but sometimes the above happens.
Notes :
*The above situation doesn't occur whille using the New Game option (means not srcds), idk if there are other reasons but I prefer the srcds because it allows mods - something I really need, and it is much more comfortable.
*I run the srcds with a batch file.
*New record as I mentioned on my post - it crashes on EVERY map change/restart

In the pic above - the srcds isn't responding, seconds later it chrashes (disappears).

SOLUTION: After comparing some situations (when the problem occurs and when it doesn't, I started to eliminate the possible factors and got to the conclusion that the problem was in the server.cfg, after that I started making every 3 line of the cfg as a comment (//) and found out the the reason was incorrect rates - min 20000 and max 30000 - I saw those rates on some guide so I copied them. Anyway I changed it to min 30k and max 60k and IT WORKS!
I thought about it couple of times, and it looks retarded, but now I dont have the problem so...

Post the whole console contents that you get back. I tried Googling those two things you put in here but I see them in all sorts of different errors from network adapters to mods.

The problem is that when ever the problem occurs the console is not responding and srcds crashes in 3 seconds after that. So either everything is ok so I don't have what to copy, either i get this problem and can't copy anything. But as far as I know and noticed correctly, all the other lines are lines that appear all the time (like any ordinary command that appears in the console).
I hosted a server 5 minutes ago, and it crashed now, so a new record - 5 minutes crash - impossible to host a server like that...
