Problem with the Relative User Files Directory setting

[igs-theory]

Hello.

 

I am trying to set the user's home directory on a Counter-Strike Source server to the cstrike directory. In the Relative User Files Directory I have:

 

/cstrike/

 

It does correctly set the user's home directory, but the server is creating a new cstrike directory under the pre-existing cstrike directory, and the server.cfg file is not being read.

 

To simplify (maybe), TCAdmin is being told "/cstrike/cfg/server.cfg" for the cfg path, but since the home directory is already cstrike, is it creating new folders and the resulting path is actually "cstrike/cstrike/cfg/server.cfg."

 

I hope someone understands what I'm trying to say.

 

Does anyone know what's up?

 

Thanks

All you need to do is rezip the folder but do not zip up the cstrike folder itself. go into the directory and select all , then zip those files and folders up and call it csstrike.zip TCAdmin will create the cstrike folder upon install and then unzip those files to it.

Alright. I'll that a spin.

 

Thanks a lot.

Let me see if I have this right.

 

I have a CSS.rar file, that is in C:\GameInstalls. It works great when I don't add cstrike as the relative user's directory.

 

What you are telling me to do, is to zip the "cstrike" folder and replace "cstrike" folder that in my CSS.rar? So inside my CSS.rar file, I would have all my files and directories and the cstrike.rar file?

 

If that is the case, it doesn't work for me.

 

Should my CSS.rar look like this:

 

bin

hl2

platform

hlds_steamgames.vdf

InstallRecord.blob

srcds.exe

cstrike.rar

 

Or should it be like this:

bin

cstrike/cstrike.rar

hl2

platform

hlds_steamgames.vdf

InstallRecord.blob

srcds.exe

 

Lastly, do I have to do this for each game that I want to restrict directory access?

 

Thanks

Well that was insanely easy, after Luis answered my ticket (very quickly I will add).

 

For people searching, you change the "Force Path for FTP/FileMan" field and not the "Relative User Files Directory."

 

That's what I get for reading the tcadmin.pdf!
