Server Redirected Problems

[Zetsumei]

Will it be necessary to change these settings on the game server as well?

On a server you upload the actual files so they should never end up in the cache folder. And thus should never be automatically be cleared.

Only the server section needs to be updated.

bAllowDownloads does in fact need to be FALSE on the server. Else wise the server will attempt to send server content to the client and that just won't work.

The INI settings (SERVER):

ROEngine.INI

[IpDrv.HTTPDownload]
RedirectToURL=http://{URL TO YOU REDIRECTOR SERVER}/[DIRECTORY]/

The Unreal engine probably won't like any other internet protocol other than HTTP

I just noted that my AllowDownloads was set to true. Weird thing though it would still use the redirect !

 

[Major_Day]

[IpDrv.TcpNetDriver] AllowDownloads=True

should be

[IpDrv.TcpNetDriver] AllowDownloads=False

Try that.

It should be noted, however, that the redirector DOES work 99% of the time if properly set up.

We are properly setup and it does not work 99% of the time.

The INI settings (SERVER):

ROEngine.INI

[IpDrv.HTTPDownload]
RedirectToURL=http://{URL TO YOU REDIRECTOR SERVER}/[DIRECTORY]/

The Unreal engine probably won't like any other internet protocol other than HTTP

The INI settings (CLIENT):

ROEngine.INI

[Core.System]
StaleCacheDays=30
MaxStaleCacheSize=10
MaxOverallCacheSize=30
PackageSizeSoftLimit=300

I am already using these settings, so that's not the source of the problems. And the files are setup correctly.

I understand your position. We've found conditions in house that can lead to this happening and are actively working on getting it narrowed down. That's the best we can do until we have a solution.
