    Can you run RustDedicated.exe directly? Also, if you could upload your log.txt too once you get a chance.

    Yes, the logs.txt actually from where your RustDedicated.exe is. Make sure you try with the .bat again though FROM YOUR INSTALL location before uploading it.

    Your server install is either outdated or incomplete, I'd recommend running SteamCMD again with the validate option as shown in the first post of this thread. You also do not have Oxide installed currently according to the log, but I'd recommend getting Rust starting properly first.

    Are you sure you downloaded the latest release? Also make sure you are installing Oxide while the server is shutdown.

    I'd try a fresh install, and making sure you are getting the latest Oxide build.

    Could you try using the _start-example.bat that Oxide includes?

    Ah, I think I see your issue, you have too many quotes in your server name. There should only be one quote on each side of the server name.
