RE: [hlds] Win32 hldsupdatetool updated

2007-10-19 Thread Michael R. Matheson
I've been reading these posts about the directory problems that seem to
occur when updating TF2.  Is it certain that the hldsupdatetool itself must
also be in the C:\SRCDS directory?  This was never the case with CSS or
HL2DM.  I have always kept the hldsupdatetool in a subfolder of C:\SRCDS,
namely C:\SRCDS\Updater.

There is know work around needed, delete the C:\srcds\tf files (alfred
already mentioned doing this). Your server never ran from these, it ran from
the files in C:\srcds\orangebox\tf along with the app srcds.exe which your
commandline should have pointed to prior to the content mixup.

You should have 1 tf directory:

 C:\srcds\orangebox
 C:\srcds\orangebox\tf
 C:\srcds\orangebox\platform
 C:\srcds\orangebox\hl2
 C:\srcds\orangebox\bin

Subject: Re: [hlds] Win32 hldsupdatetool updated

As a temp work around I have just been copying the files into the
orangebox folder manually.. for awhile I was even running the server from
outside the orangebox folder. (but that's sketchy)

you COULD make a batch file to correct the problem (again as a temp work
around)

something like this

xcopy /s /v /Y /D C:\bin\hlds_4\tf C:\bin\hlds_4\orangebox\
xcopy /s /v /Y /D C:\bin\hlds_4\bin C:\bin\hlds_4\orangebox\
xcopy /s /v /Y /D C:\bin\hlds_4\platform C:\bin\hlds_4\orangebox\

If you have several TF2 servers it may be beneficial to keep a master
install folder that is updated then xcopy the changes out to your
individual servers folders. This should at least get you going until they
get this sorted out.

 I'm getting the exact same error as below, thus all of my servers are
 down.

 I run all of my servers through batch files because it's the quickest way
 to
 update multiple servers for me.

 Could this be a possible problem related to batch files?
 If so how do we resolve this?

 Thanks

I'm getting the exact same error as below, thus all of my servers are down.

I run all of my servers through batch files because it's the quickest way to
update multiple servers for me.

Could this be a possible problem related to batch files?
If so how do we resolve this?

Thanks

Re: [hlds] Win32 hldsupdatetool updated

2007-10-18 Thread Steve S.
As a temp work around I have just been copying the files into the
orangebox folder manually.. for awhile I was even running the server from
outside the orangebox folder. (but that's sketchy)

you COULD make a batch file to correct the problem (again as a temp work
around)

something like this

xcopy /s /v /Y /D C:\bin\hlds_4\tf C:\bin\hlds_4\orangebox\
xcopy /s /v /Y /D C:\bin\hlds_4\bin C:\bin\hlds_4\orangebox\
xcopy /s /v /Y /D C:\bin\hlds_4\platform C:\bin\hlds_4\orangebox\

If you have several TF2 servers it may be beneficial to keep a master
install folder that is updated then xcopy the changes out to your
individual servers folders. This should at least get you going until they
get this sorted out.

There is know work around needed, delete the C:\srcds\tf files (alfred already 
mentioned doing this). Your server never ran from these, it ran from the files 
in C:\srcds\orangebox\tf along with the app srcds.exe which your commandline 
should have pointed to prior to the content mixup.

You should have 1 tf directory:

 C:\srcds\orangebox
 C:\srcds\orangebox\tf
 C:\srcds\orangebox\platform
 C:\srcds\orangebox\hl2
 C:\srcds\orangebox\bin

2007-10-18 Thread Steve S.
I know how the directory structure is supposed to be. but if I move or
deleted the files from the root of the srcds folder.. the next time the
updater runs it tries to re download the whole server. Which is why I
suggested copying instead so you don't have to re download a gig and a
half every time u run the updater.

Just in case you're moving it, you should have TWO hl2 directories
srcds\orangebox\hl2 which has a few files and srcds\hl2 which has most of
them.

 If you have several TF2 servers it may be beneficial to keep a master

  I run all of my servers through batch files because it's the quickest

  Could this be a possible problem related to batch files?
  If so how do we resolve this?

   Try deleting your clientregistry.blob to force your hldsupdatetool
 to
   update itself again, we can't reproduce this behavior unless we run
  with
   the version of the tool we since fixed.

This got me thinking. And I believe I have figured it out. The steam
update tool doesn't like to be called from a remote directory IE. the CWD
must contain the steam update executable. I was using a batch file to call
the update tool and update the game folder, but the way I was calling it
was triggering a bug where it would ignore the orangebox folder.

got it all sorted out now, thx for the tip Robert

 I have been playing around with this for awhile trying to get it to work
 properly, I have found that if you follow these steps it will update to
 the proper folder

 1. in the folder that contains the update tool, delete ClientRegistry.blob
 2. In the root of your server folder delete InstallRecord.blob
 3. Run the update command with the -retry switch

 At this point it will start going through all your files making sure they
 are up to date. however...

 Here is where the problems begin

 Even though the retry flag is set it still bombs out as shown above
 then after running the command again it disregards the orangebox folder
 and begins creating everything under the root of the server folder.

 With the retry flag not working properly and the tool ignoring the
 orangebox folder when restarting after an error, I don't see any way to
 maintain and up to date server without having to keep two copies of it in
 under the root server folder.

 Just in case you're moving it, you should have TWO hl2 directories
 srcds\orangebox\hl2 which has a few files and srcds\hl2 which has most
 of
 them.

Re: [hlds] Win32 hldsupdatetool updated

2007-10-18 Thread Steve S.
I have been playing around with this for awhile trying to get it to work
properly, I have found that if you follow these steps it will update to
the proper folder

1. in the folder that contains the update tool, delete ClientRegistry.blob
2. In the root of your server folder delete InstallRecord.blob
3. Run the update command with the -retry switch

At this point it will start going through all your files making sure they
are up to date. however...

Here is where the problems begin

--output
0.02%   C:\bin\hlds_4\hl2\models\vortigaunt_slave.mdl
0.02%   C:\bin\hlds_4\hl2\models\vortigaunt_slave.phy

Updating Installation
Checking/Installing 'Team Fortress 2 Content' version 12

0.01%   C:\bin\hlds_4\tf\bin\server.dll
--output

Even though the retry flag is set it still bombs out as shown above
then after running the command again it disregards the orangebox folder
and begins creating everything under the root of the server folder.

With the retry flag not working properly and the tool ignoring the
orangebox folder when restarting after an error, I don't see any way to
maintain and up to date server without having to keep two copies of it in
under the root server folder.

 Just in case you're moving it, you should have TWO hl2 directories
 srcds\orangebox\hl2 which has a few files and srcds\hl2 which has most of
 them.

 There is know work around needed, delete the C:\srcds\tf files (alfred
 already mentioned doing this). Your server never ran from these, it ran
 from
 the files in C:\srcds\orangebox\tf along with the app srcds.exe which
 your
 commandline should have pointed to prior to the content mixup.

 You should have 1 tf directory:

  C:\srcds\orangebox
  C:\srcds\orangebox\tf
  C:\srcds\orangebox\platform
  C:\srcds\orangebox\hl2
  C:\srcds\orangebox\bin

 As a temp work around I have just been copying the files into the
 orangebox folder manually.. for awhile I was even running the server
 from
 outside the orangebox folder. (but that's sketchy)

 you COULD make a batch file to correct the problem (again as a temp work
 around)

 something like this

 xcopy /s /v /Y /D C:\bin\hlds_4\tf C:\bin\hlds_4\orangebox\
 xcopy /s /v /Y /D C:\bin\hlds_4\bin C:\bin\hlds_4\orangebox\
 xcopy /s /v /Y /D C:\bin\hlds_4\platform C:\bin\hlds_4\orangebox\

 If you have several TF2 servers it may be beneficial to keep a master
 install folder that is updated then xcopy the changes out to your
 individual servers folders. This should at least get you going until
 they
 get this sorted out.

  I'm getting the exact same error as below, thus all of my servers are
  down.
 
  I run all of my servers through batch files because it's the quickest
 way
  to
  update multiple servers for me.
 
  Could this be a possible problem related to batch files?
  If so how do we resolve this?
 
  Thanks

   this is sooo strange.. ok I deleted clientregistry.blob from the
 steam
   update folder, I also deleted installrecord.blob from the root of
 the
   server folder.
  
   I run the update cmd.. the tool updates itself to version 22, and
 then
   starts the update process using the proper orangebox folder
  
   it scrolls through hundreds of files.. THEN it starts downloading
  files
   outside to orangebox folder again.

There needs to be an appdir.txt file in the base dir along with the
other hldsupdatetool files, that file controls what files go into the
orange box folder.

Try deleting your clientregistry.blob to force your hldsupdatetool to
update itself again, we can't reproduce this behavior unless we run with
the version of the tool we since fixed.
