OK i just downloaded a custom map IE ctf_convoy_v2.bsp. I have my redirection setup and it will not let users download the map.
Here is the config:
--------
sv_allowupload 1
// allow custom decals to be uploaded. 0 is off 1 is on
sv_allowdownload 1
// allow files to be downloaded from the server. 0 is off 1 is on
net_maxfilesize 100
// Max download file size. Default is 15
sv_downloadurl "http://www.bkas.net/maps/"
//redirect download location
-------------------------------
I know the path is right and if you click in the link below you can download the file.
http://www.bkas.net/maps/ctf_convoy_v2.bsp
As you can see it works but if a user does not have the map it will disconect them! And yes I did use that HldsUpdateTool to get my updates
So, What am I doing wrong?

needs to be sv_downloadurl "http://www.bkas.net/tf" you may or may not need a trailing "/" on there. then on your webserver you put the maps in the blah/tf/maps folder.
also if you searched you would have found this:

Well did NOT work sorry. I did as you told me. Did the redirect path:
http://www.bkas.net/tf and http://www.bkas.net/tf/
and it did not grab the file I also compressed the files. as you can see below the link is good. But I get disconnected from the server when it go to download the map. Is there a fix for this?
http://www.bkas.net/tf/ctf_convoy_v2.bsp.bz2
Here is the exact error message:
DISCONNECTED
missing map maps/ctf_convoy_v2.bsp disconnecting!
I have both the compressed files and the .bsp files in the server map folder and still did not work!

Your http needs to hold the same structure as the tf dir...
http://www.bkas.net/tf/ctf_convoy_v2.bsp.bz2 needs to be changed to http://www.bkas.net/tf/maps/ctf_convoy_v2.bsp.bz2
Create and move the map accordingly.

Is there a problem dude? All Im doing is asking for help It would have been better if the server info came with the software but I guess that would have been too easy huh?
Now as for your statement: "we don't post those links with no purpose..." what the hell are you talking about man. I asking for help and giving all the info I can ok? Your giving me the impression that you are just trolling ok? All Im asking for is some help ok!!! So Back Off!!
====================================
Now lets get back to the issue at hand...........Geeze
As far as the path for the you guys suggested it still did not work. I path it just like you guys said still did not work:
http://www.bkas.net/tf/maps/ctf_convoy_v2.bsp.bz2
you can click on the link and find out that it does work but when a user connects to the server that does not have the map it will not redirect the user to the maps and will disconect the user for the server. HEHEHE I about ready to say the hell with it just put up a map pack so users can just download the maps and say the hell with this bs lol
Got any other ideas on how to fix issue please post it!
Thanks for the help guys!!

the link doesn't work for me, the error is below, again you may need to try both with the "/" and without it in your sv_downloadurl cvar.
Code:
Page not found
The page you are looking for might have been removed,
had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

Please try the following:
If you typed the page address in the Address bar, make sure that it is spelled correctly.
- Click the Back button in your browser to try another link.

hozer I don't have any problem with you asking for help, that's why I and others are here, to answer.
Same goes for trolling, I don't mean to be aggressive towards anyone or hit a weak spot or something, I don't have bad intentions.
Point I was trying to make was:
First, like fqdn said, if you used the search you would've gotten to my tutorial
Second, I was surprised, fqdn said: "needs to be sv_downloadurl "http://www.bkas.net/tf" you may or may not need a trailing "/" on there. then on your webserver you put the maps in the blah/tf/maps folder."
Next post you make is "Well did NOT work sorry." Explaining that you put the map in the main tf folder instead of what fqdn said in his post tf/maps/<maphere> and what I explained in the tutorial posted as a link by fqdn.
So I was just wondering, did you miss the explanation 2 times or didn't you even read it at all, since both fqdn and the tutorial clearly state in what place it all has to be. Just can't seem to understand how one can miss or whatever happened a full post with 3 sentence explanation on the EXACT thing your problem lies.

I tried that like I said and it did not work what else do you want me to tell you!!! And yes I did read the Tuts! ok You you can download it if you click on the link baut a user that connects to the server that does not have that map will get disconnected like I said.
Check out my server if you want to find out for yourself
. Look in the list for
|| BENDERS KICK ASS SERVER
Its just not working ok
Just for fun I made the paths:
http://www.bkas.net/tf - didnt work
http://www.bkas.net/tf/maps - didnt work
CHMOD = 755 server access
Here is the path picture
So im at a lost

1) for the redirect you only need either the bsp or the bz2 NOT both, it may be getting confused.
2) for a default apache install (webserver) it will let you download all file types, if there is any type of security from your host (in their httpd.conf) they you may need to tell them that they need to add the bsp and bz2 appropriate mime types to their config.
3) after you set your sv_downloadurl with the trailing "http://www.bkas.net/tf/" restart your server, then connect, if it doesn't work then change it to "http://www.bkas.net/tf" that's without the "/", restart the server and then connect.
4) i'm sure this is correct already but on your game server the tf2 maps are installed to blah/orangebox/tf/maps right? it's not /tf2/maps or anything like that? that part has to match your redirect.

As you can see its correct. This is really getting fraustrating. I have never had any problems with UT2004, UT3. This is just a bunch of BS getting the redirect to work.

Update!!!!!
Just got off the phone with my hosting provider and there was an issue on my account and they fix it. ( Morons ) I just tested it and the redirect does now work!! The Maps Download really fast!!
I want to thank all of you for your help and understanding in this matter!!
Cya guys!!!
