Dedicated Server Error

[bat21]

I have looked around the forums and didn't see the issue I was having, So sorry if this was posted already.

I have been out of the loop in regards to running a GRAW2 server so bare with me.

I keep getting this error when I try to load my Dedicated Server up.

I have tried to Create a dedicated server on my own machine with success, but it will not create the Dedicated_Game_Info.xml. I am running Windows Vista 64bit and turned the UAC off to see if that was the issue. But no luck. I have check the Show Hidden Files oiption but still no luck.

Can anybody shed some light on this matter.

Thanks In Advance.

when you set the server up have you done this step ?

Creating a config template:

*Launch GR:AW 2 on a local PC, go to create server screen, select dedicated - then add maps, change settings to suit for each gametype.

There is no 'save settings' button as the manual suggests. The file will however be created once you start changing settings.

*Go to the GR:AW 2 install folder, find 'settings' folder, find the 'dedicated_game_info.xml' - file.

*Edit the file as required.

*Upload to the server in the 'settings' folder.

I have tried to Create a dedicated server on my own machine with success, but it will not create the Dedicated_Game_Info.xml.

I said this in my post. I should have put it closer to the top. I have tried this and it will not create the XML file. I wonder if it has something to do with my OS being Vista 64bit. I have looked all over the web and can not find the solution to this problem.

I have tried that method countless times. Here are some screens to show you.

This is the server running.

This the folder after the server has been created and shut down. No dedicated.game.info.xml.

Am I missing somethig? This is really nerve racking.

OK, I have just loaded GR:AW2 on a vista 64 machine and tried it

it saves the file instead to

c:\ users \ {username} \ AppData \ local \ GRAW2 \ Settings

I figured as much. I figured it out at 2:30 this morning. But was to tired to post that I found it out. And on the server box, since it is Windows 2008 server, It is in the same spot. Thanks for the help. Server is up and running now.
