[cod] Server Browse issue - revisited

[Bill Wood]

My server was not showing after upgrading from 1.1 to 1.2. I just started it
a few minutes ago after leaving it down for about four hours (might as well,
it was empty anyway). I just brought up the game and checked the ingame
browser, and it's there now. Go figure.

This worked for me:

Hop on one foot and spin counter-clockwise, singing the
theme from Rocky III. Then, after 30 minutes (not 29!),
reboot your server 3 times and it should be great!

Seriously, I feel your frustration. What worked for me (to
some extent) was to change the command line of the server,
placing the +set dedicated 2 in the config file rather
than the command line. No idea why that worked, but it
did.
