Shouldn't the batch file to run a server look closer to this? "steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2 Dedicated Server\srcds.exe"

And the path to the cfg folder look like this C:\hlserver\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2 Dedicated Server\tf\cfg

Source Dedicated Server closing

So I found this tutorial and I followed all the steps but when I click SRCDS.exe my cursor turns into the loading thing and the Server thing never shows up! I really need some help!-MEGA2003

Common file not appearing

When I go into steamapps the only file that appears is libraryfolders.vpk, can anyone tell me if I did something wrong?

Issue on folders created by SteamCMD

The guide says the configuration files are located in C:\TF2server\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2 Dedicated server\tf\cfg, but the common\Team Fortress 2 Dedicated server\tf\cfg folders are never created by SteamCMD. tf\cfg are, but are in C:\TF2Server.

Are you sure you did it correctly? I downloaded the link on the article and C:\TF2server\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2 Dedicated Server was created just fine, including tf folders and its contents. You may have to redo it several times until it's done correctly, or you've pointed a filepath somewhere wrong.

I redid it according to the steps in the guide and the only folders created in steamapps are downloading and temp. Common is never created, and the server files are in the user-specified directory (C:\TF2Server), with the configs being in C:\TF2server\tf\cfg.

Could the issue be that your user-specified directory is TF2Server while the configs are in TF2server?

When creating the server using the instructions, only one folder is created (C:\tf2server), where all the files are located. No other folders are created by SteamCMD.
