Server Subscribed items not updating

[vludax]

I'm having an issue updating workshop subscriptions on the server.

I managed to upload a mod to the workshop using WorkshopUserTool. The mod was set to private after uploading, so I set it to public. Then copied the item ID to server config and started the server. The server downloaded the mod just fine.

Then I updated the mod by running WorkshopUserTool with the same config file once again. I could see a new Change record added in the workshop, and the Updated date had changed. The visibility of the mod was set to private after uploading for some reason (does this happen to everybody?). I changed it to public. Unfortunately the server never updated the workshop item. I just kept checking the status and reporting the state of 4.

I tried deleting appcache, depotcache, steamapps and userdata in Binaries\Win64 directory of the server, as well as KFGame\Cache. The mod was redownloaded, but never updated after I uploaded a new version to the workshop.

Could anybody advise how/when are servers meant to update their workshop items?

May be possible that it needs some time to spread your update through the Steam CDN.

I waited more than a day, but the server still wouldn't update the mod from the workshop. It seems like a problem with updating in server code. Should I create a bug report, or am I doing something wrong?

I don't really know. I already asked to a TWI staff member to look at similar issue I had (with the "Be the Zed" mod, which is from a TWI staff member) but as they were all at GDC last week at same time when the workshop feature went live, nobody looked at it I think.

Maybe there is a problem :\

The server still won't update its subscription, although it was modified in the workshop several days ago. Have I done it wrong?

You surely have something wrong, as I receive updates from update workshop item without problems.

Open a thread maybe instead of hijacking this announcement thread if you want more specific help.

Alternatively, if you want easy fix, delete your server folder, and install a fresh one instead of finding what is wrong on your side.

I had the same issue happening with a workshop item as well. One server updated to the correct version fine, and the other would not. Both were identical configs and settings.
I think there is something wrong with the updating process when fetching a new version of the file(s) from steam.

Hopefully they'll figure it out eventually, but for now I am stuck disabling maps that won't update from voting/map cycle.
