tehrichie Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Hello, I'm trying to update games with HLDSUpdateTool through both TCAdmin and just the regular run command - and it always hangs at Updating Installation. Has never done this in the past and I don't know why it is now. Any certain ports to open? Any information is appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dimitrifrom31 Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 HldsUpdateTool.exe -command update -game garrysmod -dir D:\GameInstalls\gmod10 works just fine for me, try reinstalling hldsupdtetool maybe does it work with other games than gmod?

tehrichie Posted September 11, 2009 Author Share Posted September 11, 2009 On and off - I'm going to try re-installing because I believe they made a version 35? Thanks for the help guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goran Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Open port 27031, I know that linux needed that port to connect to update service Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tehrichie Posted October 3, 2009 Author Share Posted October 3, 2009 Seemed to be a port / firewall issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elite90 Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Hmm ok. I've been having problems on several boxes, even with the firewall turned off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santino Cid Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Hmm ok. I've been having problems on several boxes, even with the firewall turned off. Exactly, what types of problems are you having? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest louise Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Three things to check 1. If running via command make sure hlsupdatetool is in the location you are updating from Example dir D:\GameInstalls\gmod10 2. if its being run by tcadmin it should be put in your monitor folder 3. Try adding the exe to your firewall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elite90 Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Thanks for the suggestions louise. All of those are covered. I am having the same problem that tehrichie had. The updater hangs at Updating Installation, whether it is started manually or from TCAdmin. However, it is able to download a new installation without any fuss.

Santino Cid Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Try deleting your InstallRecord.blob and then run the update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
