<content:encoded><strong>Common Issues and Solutions</strong><br><br>- Not visible in server browser — open UDP GP, GP+1, GP+2, GP+3 on firewall/NAT. Set reportingIP in server.cfg. Verify ISP or host does not block UDP. Check arma2oaserver.RPT for errors.<br><br>- BattlEye RCon cannot connect — check BattlEye/BEServer.cfg for RConPassword and RConPort, open that TCP port, and verify no extra BOM/whitespace in the file.<br><br>- Players get 'Signature check failed' — put matching .bikey files in keys/. Ensure clients load the same mod versions. Set verifySignatures=2 in server.cfg.<br><br>- DayZ/Epoch database errors — validate HiveExt.ini (host, db, user, pass). Confirm MySQL reachability and firewall. Check arma2oaserver.RPT and HiveExt.log for exact error lines.<br><br>- High desync / rubber-banding — tune basic.cfg: MaxMsgSend, MinErrorToSend, MinErrorToSendNear, MaxSizeGuaranteed/NonGuaranteed. Reduce AI count and viewDistance in missions. Avoid -noLogs so you have RPTs.<br><br>- Server crashes or hangs on boot — remove recently added mods, start with only @CBA. Check missing dependencies in RPT. Verify adequate disk space and that the -mod order is correct.<br><br>- Players stuck on 'Waiting for host' — mismatch between mission addons and server mods. Repack mission PBO with correct requiredAddons, confirm signatures, and clear client cache.<br><br>- Mod signature mismatch — ensure .bikey in keys/ matches the .bisign in mod files. Re-download mod if corrupted. Check mod version alignment between server and clients.<br></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><strong>Common Issues and Solutions</strong><br><br>- Server not visible in browser — open UDP 27015 (game) and 27016 (query) ports. Set +sv_lan 0. Verify Steam Game Server Login Token (+sv_setsteamaccount) is valid and not banned.<br><br>- VAC authentication error — ensure server has valid GSLT. Remove -insecure flag. Check VAC status at steamstat.us. Restart Steam service if needed.<br><br>- Players can't connect with 'Server is not responding' — check firewall allows UDP 27015. Verify +ip setting matches server's public IP. Test with sv_lan 1 for LAN testing.<br><br>- RCON connection refused — ensure rcon_password is set in server.cfg. Open TCP 27015 (or custom rcon_password port). Check for firewall blocking TCP connections.<br><br>- Workshop maps won't download — verify -authkey is valid Steam Web API key. Check +host_workshop_collection ID exists and is public. Ensure adequate disk space.<br><br>- High latency/lag issues — reduce server fps_max if CPU limited. Check network bandwidth with net_graph. Consider lowering tickrate from 128 to 64. Monitor sv output for performance warnings.<br><br>- SourceMod plugins not loading — verify metamod.vdf exists and points to correct MetaMod binary. Check addons/sourcemod/logs/errors_*.log for specific plugin errors.<br><br>- Bots filling server — set bot_quota 0 in server.cfg. Use mp_autoteambalance 0 and mp_limitteams 0 to prevent auto-balancing with bots.<br><br>- Map cycle not working — verify mapcycle.txt has correct map names. Use mp_mapcycle_empty_waittime to control map change timing. Check for workshop map format (workshop/mapid).<br><br>- Memory leaks or crashes — update to latest srcds version. Check addons/sourcemod/logs/errors_*.log for plugin issues. Monitor RAM usage and set appropriate -maxplayers_override.<br></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><strong>Common Issues and Solutions</strong><br><br>- Server not visible in browser — open UDP 27015 (game) and 27016 (query) ports. Set +sv_lan 0. Verify Steam Game Server Login Token (+sv_setsteamaccount) if using workshop content.<br><br>- Workshop addons not downloading — ensure -authkey (Steam Web API key) is valid. Verify +host_workshop_collection ID exists and is public. Check steamcmd workshop download logs.<br><br>- Lua errors on startup — check garrysmod/console.log for specific error messages. Verify addon compatibility with current GMod version. Remove conflicting addons.<br><br>- Players stuck downloading — reduce workshop collection size. Verify fastdl server if using custom content. Check network stability for large addon downloads.<br><br>- ULX/ULib not working — ensure proper installation in garrysmod/addons/. Check data/ulib/ permissions. Verify users.txt and groups.txt syntax.<br><br>- Gamemode won't load — verify gamemode folder structure in garrysmod/gamemodes/. Check init.lua and cl_init.lua files. Monitor console for Lua errors.<br><br>- High CPU/memory usage — identify problematic addons via server monitoring. Remove inefficient Lua scripts. Consider reducing tickrate from 66 to 33.<br><br>- Database errors — check garrysmod/data/sv.db integrity. Verify disk space and permissions. Some addons may require MySQL instead of SQLite.<br><br>- Map changes fail — verify maps exist in garrysmod/maps/. Check mapcycle.txt syntax. Ensure workshop maps are properly downloaded.<br><br>- Custom content missing — setup FastDL server for custom maps/materials. Verify resource.AddWorkshop() calls in Lua scripts. Check client sv_downloadurl setting.<br></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><strong>Common Issues and Solutions</strong><br><br>- Server not visible in browser — open UDP 27015 (game) and 27016 (query) ports. Set +sv_lan 0. Verify Steam Game Server Login Token (+sv_setsteamaccount) if required.<br><br>- Players can't connect — check +maxplayers setting. Verify Steam authentication servers are online. Monitor server console for connection errors.<br><br>- Pure server violations — update pure_server_whitelist.txt with allowed custom files. Set sv_pure 0 to disable or sv_pure 2 for strict whitelist mode.<br><br>- SourceMod plugins not loading — verify metamod.vdf exists and points to correct MetaMod binary. Check addons/sourcemod/logs/errors_*.log for specific plugin errors.<br><br>- Map cycle not working — verify mapcycle.txt has correct map names. Use mp_timelimit to control map change timing. Check for custom map requirements.<br><br>- High CPU/performance issues — reduce server fps_max if CPU limited. Monitor net_graph for network performance. Consider reducing maxplayers for better performance.<br><br>- VAC authentication error — ensure server has valid GSLT if using ranked mode. Remove any modifications that might trigger VAC.<br><br>- Bots filling server — use tf_bot_quota 0 to disable bots. Configure tf_bot_auto_vacate for automatic bot removal when players join.<br></content:encoded>
