Webserver downloading problems
#1
Ok, I set my server up to download from a url. I keep getting missing map errors when connecting, rejecting from connection. I try looking at the sv_allowdownload and sv_downloadurl cvars when the server is already started and they come out correct.

sv_allowdownload 1
sv_allowupload 1
sv_downloadurl "http://www.mysite.com/server/tf/"

Now the real thing is, I'm using .bz2 compression. It works without the compression but I need this compression to work with all the custom maps that are available. I didn't change the extensions or anything, they're listed as .bsp.bz2 at the end of each filename. Is it my webserver's problem not liking the extensions or am I doing something wrong still? Please help...

This is correct.

PM me or post the real sv_downloadurl here so I can verify that the files are properly on the web server.

What program you've used to compress the map files?

I can assure you they're properly on there. Like I said if I don't post the bz2's and just post the bsp's in the same exact folder, it works. I'm using the bzip tool from http://www.bzip.org.

Great. Then everything's OK.

No, if you logon to the server when only .bsp.bz2's are in the folder nothing downloads and it rejects user but if the .bsp uncompressed is in the folder, it downloads.

It doesn't matter now, I figured it out. The webserver didn't allow access to unspecified types and .bz2 was one of them. Added that extension and maps were downloading properly, thanks anyway Big Grin

They weren't. That's why I would've wanted to verify them. Good that you solved the problem by yourself.
