Couldn't load server/(my server)/(my map).map.sav - file doesn' t exist

Please do not just dismiss this off as "it is what it says it doesn't have the save for the server seed" Just please read there's a bit more to it.

I have made 4 Rust servers with no problem until now, which lightweight makes me think it's my vps provider. We will see...

So, I fucked with my batch file a lot and nothing has seemed to work.

My Bat

Code:

@echo off
RustDedicated.exe -batchmode +server.ip 0.0.0.0 +server.port 28015 +server.tickrate 10 +server.hostname "iLeaker|Active Admins|MODs" +server.identity "ileaker" +server.level "Procedural Map" +server.seed 793197 +server.maxplayers 50 +server.worldsize 3000 +server.saveinterval 600 +rcon.ip 0.0.0.0 +rcon.port 28016 +rcon.password "password" -logfile ileakerRust.log

At first I was getting the "Could load map.sav" error Along with

Code:

[3/14/2017 9:15:26 AM] Floating point textures aren't supported on this device (Main Camera (UnityStandardAssets.CinematicEffects.TonemappingColorGrading))[3/14/2017 9:16:31 AM] Couldn't load server/No Clans/proceduralmap.3000.793197.142.map.sav - file doesn't exist[3/14/2017 9:16:38 AM] Missing EnvSync - creating[3/14/2017 9:16:38 AM] Missing CommunityEntity - creating[3/14/2017 9:16:38 AM] Missing ResourceDepositManager - creating

I'm getting really frustrated with this because I've never had these problems before.

But, If I load the server one more time after it creates teh map.sav file the console loads and skips a bunch of shit.

Code:

So if you guys could help me i'd greatly appreciate it.

 

BUMP: Can someone please help me on this? If it's the server I have to cancel it by tonight to get my refund.

 

Exactly, but I just created this server. I've never gotten this message when I first created a server. But, that wasn't the main issue. After It creates the sav file I reboot up the batch file and it loads up the server in about 8 seconds. (doesn't sound like its bad but it is) my server isn't starting , or even showing up or anything yet the console says this;

That looks like a normal startup to me. The only time you will get that message is if the map file was not found. As Wulf said, it could be corrupted, you haven't saved the map at all before shutting down the server, you removed it, or there was a forced map wipe.

I wipe my server every week and I get the same message, it's completely harmless if you know what you're doing is correct. Simply the save file name is cached so the server knows what save file to load and if the file isn't there the message will appear.

Tips: Make sure to save the server and don't mess with the file name.
