Server Unknown steam error with steamcmd flavor of server.

Here http://wiki.tripwireinteractive.com/index.php/RO_Dedicated_Server it mentions using steamcmd to install the dedicated server for redorchestra ost but with that version no one can connect to the server so I had to revert back to using the hlds update tool to install the dedicated server. And yes I already deleted the ClientRegistery.blob file. And I an not the only one having issues trying to connect to my server when its the steamcmd one.
 
Here is the server output when someone tries to connect and fails. the
1.1.1.1 and 2.2.2.2 are not the real ip addresses.

Code:

Re-install the server files using Steamcmd
Once it has installed run the server once and then shut it down, look in 'system' folder their should be a text file called steam_appid.
Open it with notepad, it will probably say 1210 change this to 1200 and save, restart the server.:IS2:

This is known Steam error and an easy fix.
