We'll try to get the ports back open asap as I think they were shut down last night in the excitement of getting the gaming bit working.......

7130-7135 should do it.  G-man, you around?

I notice that for the last few days I have been unable to get the chat windows to work in HLSW. Basically when you try to get the logs it fails with a timeout although you can send RCON commands and see the response in the console window.

Can somebody else please test to see if it works for them?

Cheers :D

That's a relief! it's not just me then :)

I notice in the "console" page that when you try to get a log it initially tries port 7130 but then flips over to some other randomly chosen port.

OB are you behind a NAT router or anything? I know I am and I'm not sure if NAT is screwing up.

Logs don't work for me either, but as mentioned above it shows in the console log!

OK Here is what I get in console when I try to get logs:

11:09:21 HLSW NOTE: Connecting to 82.197.65.246:27019 ...
11:09:21 logaddress_add "82.41.79.247:7130"
11:09:21 decalfrequency 7130
11:09:21 server_cvar: "decalfrequency" "7130"
11:09:21 logaddress_del "82.41.79.247:7130"
11:09:22 logaddress_add "82.41.79.247:14159"
11:09:22 decalfrequency 7131
11:09:22 server_cvar: "decalfrequency" "7131"
11:09:22 logaddress_del "82.41.79.247:14159"
11:09:22 decalfrequency 60
11:09:22 server_cvar: "decalfrequency" "60"

I have even tried port forwarding 7130 to my LAN IP but that gives same result. I guess either my router/firewall or the one at HiVelocity is "playing" with port numbers.

Questions:

Is someone at HV looking at this for us just now?
If not what can we do to try and resolve it?

It's really getting on my tits ;)

Cheers :D

It doesn't appear to be anything to do with NAT, or at least not for me. I have NAT with no port forwarding and I can use rcon on all the servers with no problem, including writing logs to text files etc.

What version of HLSW is everyone using?

I'm on 1.0.0.38 (I've tried 37 and 36 both of which used to work but they do not work now)

1.0.0.38?

According to HLSW homepage 1.0.0.36 is the latest.  :eyebrow:

I've been doing some digging and 38 seems to be part of the problem (that and a recent Steam update).

If you dont have 38 then I suggest don't get it yet - wait for a patch

Must be more the Steam update than HLSW then. Most of the posts regarding the problem refer to a recent steam update that changed the way logaddress is handled (don't you just love Valve)

I've seen a few posts mention that restarting the servers might clear the RCON issue through HLSW that appeared recently. Might be worth doing before the competition - it can't hurt can it :)

The posts seem to indicate that it is a Steam issue more than HLSW. They suggesterd that restarting servers would fix it- dunno but worth a try :D

That's a Source only solution so it does not explain why some peeps can use HLSW fully on CS and CZ and others cannot whilst using the same version of HLSW.

Mine didn't :(

Given that Hi-V are making network changes and your HLSW started working suddenly I'm starting to think that part of the problem lies at Hi-V's end whether it be NAT, Firewall, Port Re-Direction or whatever.

If that were the case surely it would affect everyone using HLSW?

Not necessarily. Are we all getting into Hi-V over the same route? Maybe there is some strange and complex interaction between the NAT router I am behind and whatever is being used by Hi-V? It's all very weird and we don't really have any answers :(

Possible culprits:

Steam
HLSW
Hi-V
My Router
WinXP

All of the above?

Mine was buggered whilst I was still on Zen, so that rules out Hi-V unless both Hi-V and Zen do the same thing - which would mean an HLSW problem as they clearly do not understand the way that the internet works.

Yes, you were still on Zen but wasn't it after the server was moved to Hi-V that this started? I'm not wanting to blame Hi-V but for me all this started after the server move. before that HLSW was spot on.

Nope.  It was buggered when it was back at Crosswired/MWI.

Not for me. The CS:S logs didn't work on Crosswired but that was an HLSW issue not a Crosswired issue. The first post in this thread was made after the servers moved to Hi-V.

Remember though that lots happened about the same time - HLSW update, Steam update, server move and thats why it is tricky to pin down what caused it. All i can say is that for me it started post server move, that doesn't mean server move caused it ;)
