Sorry I feel like a real idiot asking this, but I am very new to running unmanaged server's. Recently a CS:S update came out and so I restarted the game server and I got this message on start up again.

"Your server is out of date, and will not be listed on the master server until you restart.

Do you wish to shutdown now?"

I click OK, Then I start it up and get the same message.


What I have tried

- Whole windows server restart
- Opening the hldsupdatetool.exe

We talk a bit about how to handle these here: viewtopic.php?f=67&t=4107&p=17660. This is the basic procedure:

Quote:
If a game update comes out later on and you need to update, here's how to do it:

1. Shut down your server.
2. Click "Start" and then click "Run".
3. Type "cmd" into the blank and hit enter.
4. Type these commands:

Code:
cd\Game installs
hldsupdatetool.exe -command update -game "Counter-strike source" -dir sourcebase

It should respond with a bunch of lines downloading files. If that procedure gives you any trouble, please let me know.

I got this error.

Code:
'C:\Game' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.


I definitely have the directory C:\Game installs.

Very strange...

I will ask one more question, is there an auto updater?

Valve doesn't have an auto-updater for Windows, no.

One way that you could get something similar would be to create a .bat file that includes those update lines, starts up your server, and then loops back to the beginning. This way, if the server exits (such as through someone using "rcon quit"), your system will run an update.
