Srcds windows

SrvStart gets all the parameters e. The config file is in a basic ini format. You can provide global options at the top of the file before any sections, but I haven't used that yet so I can't advise it. The section names are names of Windows Services. When SrvStart exe runs as a programmer, this is my guess , it gets the name of the service it's supposed to run and searches the config file for a section matching that name.

For this guide, I am assuming that you are using the exact config file that I posted above you'll see where things need to change for your version. If it didn't, make sure you are not trying to install a service that already exists. You can now start the services to make sure they are working. You have completed phase one and your server is now protected from crashes. The next phase will allow you to have it automatically restarted if the server stops responding to rcon commands a good indication that it hung and didn't close.

Phase 2: This phase involves running a special program on the SAME machine that you are hosting your servers. NET application that when run, will check all the servers in it's configuration file to see if they are up and running by sending a rcon status command , and if a server isn't, it restarts the service.

You will need VS08 to build the source code. I recommend that after configuring it, you set it up to run as a scheduled task every few minutes.

Once it's fully tested, I will post binaries and a full step by step guide. Posts: 15 Threads: 2 Joined: Feb Reputation: 0.
