Can't Start Server

[Ghadente]

I use to be able to start my server by using the 'Start new Game' button in the game, but whenever i hit Begin Game it says "New Version Available at digitalpaint.org, Connection Refused"
I have tried intstalling the game again, no affect.
I have tried the guide on the website to start my own server, and it hasn't worked.
and i have tried the link to the troubleshooter which gave me this:

DP Resource Public Server Troubleshooter

That's a bug in the troubleshooter. Your setup reaches somewhere in the test process that I forgot to write a list of solutions for.

Let me fix that >_>

so what should i do? try the test again?

Ghadente, try a re-test.  Then we can probably manually  troubleshoot it after that.

Well, I haven't had time to actually fix the troubleshooter yet, or allow you to test other IPs.

Regardless though, I designed the output so that others can troubleshoot manually (it tells you everything you need to know). Anyway, because you're not on the server list, are you sure you set the server to be public? Is the console saying that it is sending a heartbeat occasionally?

Ok so i ran the test again :

Recommendations from Test
Everything looks like it should work.

i got that... but when i try to log in and start the game it says
connection refused new version available etc.

The server is "fine" I think your configuration is causing the problems.

In the server's config what is sv_minclientbuild set to?  I would make sure it's not set above 19 (I do recommend using 19 however) and making sure you've installed Build 19 on your computer.

In your server's console you can just type sv_minclientbuild and it should show you what the value is as well.
