I'm not sure why setting up a dedicated server is kicking my butt but it is!
I'm trying to setup a TF2 server. I've done the update that downloads everything and I have a config at orangebox\cfg\server.cfg
The contents of the .cfg file are verbatim the exact same contents from this post: http://forums.srcds.com/viewtopic/5315
With two exceptions, rcon_password and sv_password, both set to the same non-blank password.
I start with the following:
srcds.exe -console -game tf -hostport 27015 +maxplayers 24 +map ctf_2fort
And in the window that pops up, I see the following:
Executing dedicated server config file
exec: couldn't exec server.cfg
While I can connect to it, I can't rcon into it even though I'm using rcon_password and rcon_address. It's not asking for the connection password so I suspect server.cfg is not working.
So,
A) Is that sample config file wrong? Where?
B) Where can I go from here?
