COD4 server wont start

[wargolchaos]

I have installed a COD 4 server on my account and when I click the start button it goes to a page with nothing but a start button. The page will keep refreshing back to the same page.

I am very confused.

Is there anyway to find out why it wont start?
or maybe theres a special way to start it?

I there anything in the log file about it ? What happens if you try to start it yourself from the shell ?

Sorry to bother you, but how would I do that? I have access to SSH but not to great with it.

Try run the server the same way cPGS does to test with, you can log in via ssh and try this:

ssh user@yourserver
cd ~/.gameservers/cod4_0/

/home/user/.gameservers/cod4_0/cod4_lnxded +set dedicated 2 +ttycon 0 +set net_IP X.X.X.X +set net_port NNNNN +set fs_homepath /home/user/.gameservers/cod4_0/ +set sv_maxclients 32 +map_rotate

Be sure to replace /home/user/ with the actual home directory of your user, change the IP and Ports to proper values and see if it gives you any error.

If that doesn't seem to help, put in a ticket and I'll take a peek.
