redirect not working

[scar]

i configured my server like is mentioned on http://news.ut-files.com/redirect/

then i downloaded a new map to my server, and put it in Maps directory. now when my client connects to server, it is just stalled on downloading the map, there's no progress.

i wanted to set up the redirect because download is very slow for clients when the server sends it. 20 k/s i think it is limited to.

Make sure the mapfile has been uploaded to the redirect server (it has to be the EXACT name). When the client wants to download the file, it connects to the redirect server via the adress + the mapname, just the same as you would via your browser. You can test that by checking the full URL with the filename in your browser, should look like this: http://uz.ut-files.com/YourMapName.unr.uz
If you can download that file and there's no 404 error, it has to be your settings, otherwise make sure the file is uploaded to the redirect server.

thanks. all my maps are uncompressed, so yeah i was getting 404 errors basically. i just set up a local http server instead and set UseCompression=False. everything working great now.
