Sourcemod Updater glitched?

Parabyte · **Author**

Whenever I restart my TF2 server, I get this:

L 02/17/2013 - 05:05:26: [UPDATER] --- BEGIN ERRORS FROM AUTOMATIC UPDATER ---
L 02/17/2013 - 05:05:26: [UPDATER] Could not download "http://update.sourcemod.net/update/"
L 02/17/2013 - 05:05:26: [UPDATER] Error: Failed to connect to 2001:19f0:1507:5210:1057:a11:da7a:1000: Network is unreachable
L 02/17/2013 - 05:05:26: [UPDATER] --- END ERRORS FROM AUTOMATIC UPDATER -

SM still runs, I was not even aware SM had an updater. Anyways, is there a way to fix that error?

Does this particular server have an IPv6 network connection?

update.sourcemod.net does not have an IPv6 address and does not have a AAAA record set in DNS either.

That IPv6 address is announced by Choopa (who are not our host), so I'd say something is super-screwy with your host system's configuration - either a proxy has been configured (the HTTP_PROXY environment variable), the /etc/hosts file has been configured to return that address for update.sourcemod.net, or a broken DNS server is being used.

EDIT: That is the http://gameservers.com/ IPv6 address, are they your host?

Yes, they host my server. So basically it's connecting to gameserver's host for the update... not SM's as I thought?

It should be connecting to us, they're screwing with something so it tries to connect to them instead.
You'll need to contact their support, it's outside our control.

Ok, thanks much!
