I found a bug in cortex im running 6 css servers and 4 or 5 other servers right now. well i have a css rpg surf and it crashed couldent figure out the problem to it crashing well the server crashing over and over acctully corrupted the engines and the css engine crashing crashed the HL2 engine and the GM10 stuff and anything that shares the HL2 engine and im not 100% sure on it being the server crashing over and over but i couldent figure out any other exceuse for it to corrupt the engines.

SO the css server crashing was acctully due to a bad map as an fyi to you all map was missing a file to run and it didnt liek that.

heres the fix

make a copy of your server instances
C:\i365\instances\admin
or where ever your instances are on your server

then go and uninstall the engines
reinstall the engines
remake the instances named EXACTLY how they were
then go 1 by 1 and import your backed up cfg files into cortex
then copy your instances backup over your new instances you just made
and remake your map cycles

and they should start up

ive only had a problem with the HL2 engine and what ever shares that

i submitted a support ticket and 2 days later i told tech support the fix lol
this engine crash has happened twice now so i back up my instances every few days


also you can cheat if you ever upgrade or downgrade to a new server box with cortex you can take your backups and put them on your new box and follow the same directions above no work in resetting up your game servers from scratch
