Hey Guys,
I have rented a windows 2019 server and want to host condor2.
I have set up the port forwarding and hosting other games (like Minecraft) works fine.
But when I start the condor server, I got the message „Dedicated server could not be started“ even as administrator.
Anny Ideas?

Problems Running Dedicated-Server on Microsoft-Server-2019
Re: Problems Running Dedicated-Server on Microsoft-Server-2019
Windows server installs usually do not have "DirectPlay" installed. It is needed to run a server.
It is a windows program and should be easy to enable through the services menu if I recall correctly.

Re: Problems Running Dedicated-Server on Microsoft-Server-2019
Thanks.
but the problem is that the server has not the same "Features" menu as a normal Win10. And in the Server Menu is no DirectPlay option.
I'm still looking for a way to download DirectPlay.
DirectX is not the same, or am i wrong?

Re: Problems Running Dedicated-Server on Microsoft-Server-2019
DirectPlay is part of directX but needs to be turned on separately. I think it is done via "server manager". The server analog to "programs and features".

Re: Problems Running Dedicated-Server on Microsoft-Server-2019
I'm looking on my server now:
- Go to Server Manager Dashboard
- Under Configure this local server it says "Add roles and Features"
- Click through the wizard until you get to "Features"
- Tick the box for "DirectPlay"
- Click install at the bottom
That should enable you to run the Dedicated Server

Re: Problems Running Dedicated-Server on Microsoft-Server-2019
Thanks,
That helps a lot.
The server is running, but now I had the problem, that if I want to connect to the server, I got the message "host not found".
I even open the ports for every Protokol in the firewall.
I'm running the server with a domain.

Re: Problems Running Dedicated-Server on Microsoft-Server-2019
Both serverside and client side must allow Condor through the firewall. Default port is 56278. That port needs to be enabled for UDP.

Re: Problems Running Dedicated-Server on Microsoft-Server-2019
Client-Side: I can play on other listed servers like a charm.
Server-Side: In and Out-Roule ist set to open for UDP on Port 56278.
I still get the message "Host not found".
EDIT:
After waiting some days and a few restarts, I could join the server.
Thanks for your help
