Hello everyone!
I need to move an instance from one Windows server to another, since the first one will first be closed, but I have some troubles with a L4D2 (srcds) instance.
OS Name/Version:
Windows Server 2019 1809
Product Name/Version:
AMP Release "Europa" v2.0, built 10/07/2020 21:34
Problem Description:
After a successful installation and download... the instance cannot start the srcds server. To rule out configuration issues, I have tried to start a "clean" (unconfigured) installation, with the same result.
Steps to reproduce:
- Installing an instance
- Configure
- Launch
- CPU peak and crash
Actions taken to resolve so far:
- Clean installation.
- Checking AMP verbose (Monitoring.LogLevel=0) logs.
- Checking L4D2 logs.
- Starting server without AMP.
Sadly, logs are not descriptive at all.
AMP instance log only says "Application state changed from Starting to Stopped":

l4d2 logs are, simply, empty.
As I said before, I started the server by itself, just opening PowerShell and pasting executable path and same parameters AMP say are using... result? Success! The server now runs by itself. So I think it would be a problem with AMP. Maybe a security permissions problem? I followed tips and warnings given on "Install instructions for Windows" section.
I don't know what else to do to fix it, so I ask for your help.
Thank you in advance.
