Cannot load steamcast.conf

Post by Viccan »

When I run steamcast on my Redhat 4.0ES it cannot load the steamcast.conf file...

Any ideas why?

I have granted the file all permissions available!

check all your paths.

if you are not executing steamcast with the configuration option in the command line make sure that the server and configuration file are in the same directory and that directory is where you execute the server. It defaultly looks in the current working directory.

The server and the config file are in the main directory both of them. I execute steamcast typing /steamcast in the command shell of course...

What do u suggest? Should I move steamcast and its files to another directory?

Thx for answer!
