Hi i hav a question
I recently made a new versus server 217.123.221.92:27020
It is added and showing on setti.
that is ok.
But it doesnt show up in steamservers in the l4d2 game menu, and nobody connects
I hav 4 other servers and they r running good and people come in.
27020 port is open no error in that hehe.
And plugout can enter, i see it enter sometimes but drops out due to timeout
But thats ok i gues, it drops out in the other servers too
the 27020 is running for 4 or 5 days now, should i wait longer or is there maybe somthing wrong?

If it's here then it's on the in-game mastersrever list too http://css.setti.inf.../217.123.221.92
See if you have any filters enabled which could prevent it showing up on the in-game list.

well i dont know what filters??.. i made a copy of an existing server (27019), and changed the port in the server.cfg to 27020 and name of the old server
and i changed the scrd shortcut ip to port 27020 and empty d the logs.
ive done that before and had no problems with it.
till now.
do u know the most common things that can block the server to be seen in the steamserver browser in game menu?
thnx for helpin me

Filters like what sort of gametype you want to play or if it's not empty or password protected. Maybe you see only normal difficutly level servers and the server at :27020 is for nightmare level. That sort of stuff.
Try to refresh the list or do something to get the list refreshed. The servers that you see on the weblist are all sent also to the in-game server browser. It's there, but it's different question why it's not showing up.

well i checked that and i cant find anything strange and diffirent, well is a a copy of an existing one and that one worked perfect.
i think the problem is in the ports
because if i change the new versus server (nothing changed only port) the existing port 27020 too 27015 and i giv the old good coop server 27015 the 27020 port, the new versus server runs full with people and the existing coop server stays empty and is not seen in the steambrowser in menu
explanation?
maybe i try another port like 27014 or 27021?
it has something to do with the ports otherwise the new server would not be populated on 27015 if there was an error in the files or filters
agree?
its an interesting issue,, but hey a fresh mcitp guy like me has to learn too hehe
thnx

hmm i saw it in some forums that port 27020 can be a problem with sourcetv so i take 27020 out of busyness to be sure.
what ports do u recomment like from 27010 to 27030? (minus 27020)
i had a port 27017 in use before i stepped over to 27020 but 27017 if i use it again the server stays also empty
maybe it needs some time to restablisch itself? it doesnt show up in steam browser anymore and also if i keep it running for 5 or 6 hours server with 27017 it remains empty.
maybe 27021 or 27014?

I believe SourceTV binds itself to the game port +5 or something like that. That's why if you have normal server in port 27017, then the SourceTV takes port 27022.
You can define SourceTV port with "tv_port" configuration variable.
Use RCON command "status" to see which port SourecTV uses.

i took source tv out of all the servers where it was in.
and i cant see why 27017 isnt been shown anymore in the serverbrowser and why it stays empty
27017 is and older in use port and i saw it has no signature here on setti, and the rest of the ports hav a signature, how can that be?
maybe also a thing to look where the problem maybe is?
or maybe a reinstall of server 2008 does the trick?

yes that can be right i turn them of at midnight 4 o clock often because its not much populated.
i hav a old installation running now on a other pc with practical no plugins as clean as possible, 27015 is full now, and 27017 is stil not seen and empty
100%sure now its the port thats causing the problem, can u delete port 27017? and i will add it again like it was new in setti.
i m all out of options with solutions, its just an idea.
the problem started when i activted port 27020
maybe delete that one too? i probably dont use 27020 again

Turning the servers off causes so many problems that it's difficult to solve any other problems. Try to do your best because you've managed to get several other servers online already. It's difficult for anyone else to try to solve the problem because nobody knows when you have your servers online.

thats true wot the admin sayd
27017 is not seen by brazilians and people further away they see only the 4 older servers of mine, but they know its there i solved that internaly in the servers.
but the french and germans see the 5th, i ve spoken with them
its better this way that first only people livin in like 1000 km from where u live, then the ping is mostly good
and i dont know if ur using it but get a highping kicker for ur server
if ur server is seen by people like from indonesia after a while they have very high pings like 600+
and they come in with alot of people often from internet cafes and they lagg ur server with 5 or 6 600+ pings
good luck greetz MDK
