Hey,
i'm trying to install CS:S Server, so i downloaded the HLDS update tool from Steam, and installed it.

Then i ran the command:
Code:
HldsUpdateTool.exe -command update -game "Counter-Strike Source" -dir .
It's starts updating but after a minute it says:

Quote:
No installation record found at .
No installation record found at .
No installation record found at .
No installation record found at .

Connection reset.
I tried to download it a few times, but it always saying that..

What could be the problem?

You need to change it to

Code:
hldsupdatetool.exe -command update -game "Counter-Strike Source" -dir "C:\HLDS"
You set the directory to '.'

I corrected it to C:\HLDS

No, it doesn't matter, "." means the same directory when the hldsupdatetool.exe is found.

Here, this is what i did:

Quote:
C:\hlds1>HldsUpdateTool.exe -command update -game "Counter-Strike Source" -dir .
Checking bootstrapper version ...
Getting version 20 of Steam HLDS Update Tool

If there are spaces in the directory e.g

C:\cstrike server

It needs to have quotation marks... That's just how a CLI works.

I don't think so....

This is what I do for CS 1.6, works the same way for all games.
Notice the pic? No quotes right?

I don't think it needs quotes for the last argument.

Quotes are only needed for spaced names/commands

Example of when you would need it:
Code:
HldsUpdateTool.exe -command update -game cstrike -dir "C:\New Folder\"
If you didn't have the quotes it would give you errors.

Example of when you don't need it:
Code:
HldsUpdateTool.exe -command update -game cstrike -dir C:\Folder\
Btw I love your sig Twilight Suzuka. Portal <3

Won't work. Counter-Strike Source needs to be in quotes. I just checked and it kicks it back. But yeah, if you have a space, you need quotes, just like the others have said

I think I said that when I said " Quotes are only needed for spaced names/commands"
