Try downloading a file manually from it using a web browser and see if it's actually working.

I'm not sure about this, but using a Windows server for sv_downloadurl might not work at all because of permissions, MIME, and all that. It's never worked for my server (even though I could access its files in Firefox), and so I'm one of those people who has to use Dropbox :\

If your server host is also hosting your download server, you might want to ask them.

Try using quotes around the URL. I heard that works for some people.

From what I've been told, the engine automatically appends a slash, so a trailing slash is unnecessary. Most servers will condense multiple slashes, though, so it should work. For example, this looks fine to me: http://speedwing.servegame.com/tf//maps/

Don't know if this has anything to do with it, but when I clicked the map file to download it, its extension was .bsp.bz2.bsp.bz2....
