Server not taking server.cfg file?

Recommended Posts

So I have another topic in the forums in regards to server installing and missing AI. Well after much trial error with another issue, I just ended up reinstalling the entire server using steamcmd.exe and everything is looking good. Steamapp is recognizing the server, ports are open, i can direct connect to the server, so I felt that topic was not appropriate for this next issue. Now I can not see the server in the server list (for the name i gave it), password to server isn't working, and server name isn't changing per server.cfg. Below is my cfg's and launch parameters. Any insight to whats up would be appreciated.

Funny my issue is player disconnecting in multiplayer and leaving behind an AI that shouldn't be there.

It is like the exact opposite, not sure I want to reinstall the entire server but I guess it is better than what I have now.
