Launcher Error
#1
Hello once again, SRCDS.com.

I have just experienced a problem with SRCDS being launched. It started just after when I updated my server with hldsupdatetool. My server is for cstrike.

The error window displays:

Launcher Error
Failed to load the launcher DLL:
The specific module could not be found.

I have only updated it since the last time I had it successfully launched, which was yesterday, and everything was fine.

If anyone has a solution for me, I would like to be notified of it!

Thanks!

EDIT: Oh, and I forgot to mention I did a search-- all of the results were either irrelevent, or did not solve my problem. Deleting all the .dll files did not make the updatetool to download them.

Sorry for resorting to double posting in order to bump this... but I still have not found a solution to my problem.

I have attempted to update my server again, added -verify_all/-verifyall to the update tool, tried to delete the bin folder and try again, tried deleting the .dll files within the bin folder, and still no luck.

If anyone has any suggestions... Please share.

This I've never seen... are you running the server from the same computer as you play maybe?

I think I had this error once, I am trying to remember how the hell I fixed it. I have no clue though. Just try installing a totally clean install maybe?

Clean install might do the trick, make sure to add the -verify_all command when downloading the content

Yes, but I have run the server on my computer for over a year now. Shouldn't suddenly cease to function.

Anyways, I've got too many unique files and settings for a clean installation, unless you are speaking about backing up everything and installing a new server, and writing all the files back into it's respective directories again.

But before that, any more good suggestions?

Why not try installing a fresh install into another folder and see if that works, gotta pinpoint where the problem is coming from somehow, process of elimination Smile.

Installing everything once again. Thanks for the idea Trev, I'll post up the results later. =]

EDIT: Uh oh, it worked. =/

Can you guys give me a list of files which I could try to paste into my original SRCDS directory which may help fix this error? I am presuming all the bin files.

How about just copy the files from the clean install you did.

You can copy all the files you like, just be sure not to overwrite any you made changes in Smile if it works there was a bad file, if it doesn't there's something wrong in a configuration.


Also just a quick note to posters, please stay a little ontopic and don't post unless you have to add something to the thread, of course it's fun talking and stuff but please do so in off-topic forum and keep the rest a bit clean Smile
