Hi. I'm currently running a server on here and need help with the faster redirect for download. I have a website I host on Godaddy shared windows servers. I have a folder there that is public so people can download so permissions for the folder are there.
When I set up the redirect, it doesn't download, just keeps switching between my site address and the download progress..being zero.
Any suggestions?
Also, can't I just set up the redirect to work from the gameserver directly for fast download?
Any help would be appreciated.

Did you fix this problem? I also had this problem with some web host providers.

Curious if this got solved.

try to create inside subdomian "uo" directory. upload there files and try it. i think this is proper way. you must to create uo directory inside subdomain and i think that will work.

The subdomain I have provided in the dedicated.cfg file is uo.lugnaswan.nu, which points to a subdirectory (or document root) called public_html/uo.lugnaswan.nu/uo. This is where the custom maps.

The server does not download the files or cannot access them for some reason. It responds the same way as mentioned above, and seems to create its own URL.

In my case it is switching between http://uo.lugnaswan.nu//uo/custom_map.pk3 and just uo/custom_map.pk3.

Is it absolutely crucial to provide the exact location of these files in the cfg file?

no there are not try to open this link via your web browser

uo.lugnaswan.nu/uo

and try this

uo.lugnaswan.nu

on first one link you will see page 404 Not Found

and on second one you will se all your maps mods etc.

so you should to make inside your subdomain an folder and name it uo and to upload files there.

or just create directory (new folder) "uo" into public_html and change config parameter

// Client Download Settings. (0=off/1=on) Used for MODs and custom maps
seta sv_allowdownload "1"
seta sv_wwwDownload "1"
seta sv_wwwBaseURL "http://lugnaswan.nu/uo/"
seta sv_wwwDlDisconnected "0"

Thanks for helping me out, burebaruta.

Currently, the folder structure for my subdomain uo.lugnaswan.nu looks line this.

-Public_html
--uo.lugnaswan.nu
---uo (location of maps and mods)

To be able to generate a URL such as uo.lugnaswan.nu/uo, I think I have to set up a proper website structure for the subdomain that mirrors the folder structure above. Even though I think it's strange that it doesn't automatically do that.

Regarding the URL you added in the Client Download Settings section, lugnaswan.nu is tied to my main domain. I tried to get the files presented on that particular subpage, but that was not possible according to my web host provider. Not even redirecting the subdomain to that URL was possible.

I think I have to build a website in Wordpress using my subdomain to get the proper URL.

Do you think this will sort things out?

connect to your ftp account and create a UO folder in a subdomain and there upload mod,maps etc. Your server cant see uo.lugnaswan.nu as folder but this uo.lugnaswan.nu/uo/ he can. But there is nothing uploaded. your server when somebody want to connect on it trying to find UO directory on this web address uo.lugnaswan.nu so directory doesnt exist or is empty. your redirect address is ok just create uo directory and upload files there. if you use free hosting its possible that the provider has blocked redirect from other servers.

yes redirect address is uo.lugnaswan.nu

location of mods,maps etc is uo directory

you can create a special directory for your mod and call it blabla and blabla directory also must be named on the redirect place and all maps and mods inside that directory.
