I have followed the instructions on this site's manual for server admins with a windows system. When i run the ioquake3ded.exe shortcut i made the console runs until it reaches a line that states:

"exec <filename> : execute a script file"

I'm not sure what this means or how to fix it. Any help would be appreciated.

Can you post the line from the shortcut? I'm guessing you have a naming mismatch between your script file and the command.

When I run the shortcut a long section of text appears and then the following text ends the script:

14564 files in pk3 files
execing default.cfg
execing q3config.cfg
couldn't exec autoexec.cfg
Hunk_Clear: reset the hunk ok
...detecting CPU, found generic
Detecting CPU cores: OK: Found 2 CPU cores: Using user selected single core: 2

exec <filename> : execute a script file

It all looks normal except the last line, where it seems to be giving you the usage for the \exec command - probably because you have used +exec in the parameter list without an argument.

Can you post the line you have put in your shortcut, like I asked. I assume you are following http://www.urbanterr...server-install/ - so you will have included a line like this:

"C:\Program Files\UrbanTerror\ioUrTded.exe" +seta net_port 27960 +exec server.cfg

can you copy and paste what you have put in the shortcut so that I or someone else can see what you've done wrong.

Here the line. For some reason there is no ioquake 3 but a similar file

"C:\Program Files\UrbanTerror42\Quake3-UrT-Ded.exe" +seta net_port 27960 +exec corsairs cavern.CFG

[Mod [dswp]JRandomNoob]

"C:\Program Files\UrbanTerror42\Quake3-UrT-Ded.exe" +seta net_port 27960 +exec corsairs cavern.CFG

If you have spaces in the filename, you have to use quotes around it: +exec "corsairs cavern.CFG"

What JRandomN00b said. Actually I would remove the space from the filename altogether, and then replace the name in the shortcut.

ioquake was 4.1, the documentation probably needs updating.
