Hello, I just installed your software, but I am having problem getting the game server running.

I use windows vista, game is counter strike. I get:

Console initialized.
Protocol version 48
Exe version 1.1.2.6 (cstrike)
Exe build: 15:34:33 Jun 15 2009 (4554)

L 05/02/2010 - 03:20:37: FATAL ERROR (shutting down): Couldn't allocate dedicate
d server IP port 27015.

I dont understand why, I tried other games as well, like counter strike source giving me same kind of issues,

I my router I have added this port 27015 private/public both UDP and TCP.

Firewalls completly off.

What else can I do ?
Warm Regards,
Andre

Also I have put the computer in DMZ mode via my router, for unrestricted internet, putting it outside router rules, even then same issues.

The IP GameCreate is trying to bind your server to (by launching the game with +ip x.x.x.x) is probably not working.

We don't support a LAN environment or servers without a direct connection to the Internet.

Google the error as it is HLDS related and you should be able to identify why you're getting the error.
