Server How to update my RO2/RS dedicated server?

partyprime · May 21, 2014

Hi, I set up my server for me and a few friends to play on when the game went free for 24 hours a few weeks back and it all went well.
I wanna play some now but it seems the server isnt updated (mismatch dlc error ingame etc) but I can't find how to update it. I tried
"SteamCmd +login Username Password +force_install_dir c:/ro2server +app_update 234510 validate" (obviously with my username and password) but it says
ERROR! Failed to install app '234510' <invalid install path>
This is the same bat file i used to make the whole server so I don't get it. Please help.

What if you try every command on its own.

Start steamcmd
login user pass
force_install_dir c:\ro2server\
app_update 212542

And see what happens.

There is final slash on force... command
I have always used gameid 212542. Update without validate.

Thank you, this worked! Massive kudos to your sir.

As pointed by Rivimes, the folder is not good (your is c:/ like in your internet browser, instead of c:\ like in windows system), and the app number isn't too (maybe it is a duplicate for RS server, but it is actually the same files so i don't know it it is a duplicate number for same thing) : http://wiki.tripwireinteractive.com...stra_2:_Heroes_of_Stalingrad_Dedicated_Server

I always update with validate to check all files, and because I don't care redownloading big updates

(I think if you validate it does not update small part of files but redownload each modified files)
