For the longest time when my server is restarted I get a "file not found" error when trying to join. I have to change the map in webadmins to clear the error before you can join, its then that webadmins starts reporting/acting proper. Anyone else have this issue ? O yea this only happens with mods (workshop files) in the queue.

    are you sure the used mods are listed correct in your mapcycle.json ? i usually get file not found when something is missing there.

    Yes checked that but what I find interesting is the mapcycle.json changes on its own to what ever the selected mods or maps happen to be at the time.

    Maybe a spelling error on the map name

    You'll get this error if have your server start on a steam workshop map with putting its mod id in the launch parameters. For example, if your running a combat server and have co_rockdown set as the start map without its mod id (-mods 62b22b1) in the launch parameters, you'll get this error. Just add the starting map to the launch parameters or make sure to change the map once after starting the server to fix it.

    Some mods dont start when the server restarts. You can either force them with a mapchange or wait until the maptime runs out :)
    happens to our BT servers quite often ...

    Edit: servers also activate the missing mods after the round ends. Youll notice a mapchange like timeout but the server will stay on the same map

    To have it start with both combat and ns2_co_skylight you'll want this in your mod line 
    -mods 5f35045 7b92d88
