Solution:
This is a very common problem with a pretty easy solution. To stop the SERVER from crashing, simply search the name of the wad on google. e.g de_vegas.wad, it will come up and you need to download it. Now just extract the .wad file to the base MOD folder.
E.G HLSERVER/Your account/Your Mod. Now your server will not crash.

If you need that file to be downloaded to the client then you must create a .res file for that map.

First find the .wad file nad put it in the server, next find the map that needs it. Now create a new notepad document and simply type in the name of the wad on seperate lines for each wad you want the client to download because their game crashes too.
e.g:
de_vegas.wad
jos.wad
Now just save the file as the same name as the map, but with a .res on the end
e.g:
aim_map.res

Now if the client does not have that file, the server will upload it to them.
