Engine Error - Couldn't allocate...
#1
Hey guys.

When I try to run my dedicated server, it begins to load, then suddenly gives me an engine error saying "Couldn't allocate dedicated server UDP port"...

Does anyone know what's going on here and how to fix it?

Thanks in advance for your help.

DO you have the +ip line in, if so take that out

You're binding to an invalid IP or the port is already in use.
