Well, let's determine if it's a problem with the server files or installation.
Try connecting to localhost:7777
If that doesn't work (it still restarts etc) then re-download the SA-MP Windows server file (http://sa-mp.com/download.php)
And then, making sure your other server is closed, launch the default server, without changing any settings in server.cfg.
Then try connecting to localhost:7777

If it still crashes etc, then it's a problem with your SA-MP or San Andreas installation. Uninstall both and then re-install.

If it doesn't crash, then your filterscripts or gamemodes or something in your server is causing it to crash. Check the server log. If that has no clues, then try removing all filterscripts, etc. Trial and error until you find out what is wrong.

Hope this helps.

EDIT:
If your server ping ever goes to 99999, it means that your computer is recieving no response from it. Check that your IP hasn't changed (http://ipchicken.com). If you're the only one that needs to use the server, just use your local IP or localhost. If other people are using it, I reccomend you get a server host. ServerFFS.com seems to be good for SA-MP servers, but that's only from what I've heard. I myself will be getting a VPS with them in a few weeks.

it works from my local host fine but somthing to do with the server it keeps restarting and stuff ip stays the same but yeah any ideas.

[MrHarper]

So, your customised server works fine when you connect to localhost, but not when you connect through your IP?

Hmm. Make sure any firewall is allowing SA-MP to run through it. Make sure that you've port forwarded correctly (re-do it). And, make sure nothing else is interfering on port 7777 - do you have two servers running at the same time or anything like that? Even on different computers?

ill try a new port and stuff and see if that works steady plus i dont have gta sa installed do i need that installed for ths to run properley.

no.

Your server is always "99999" Because your IP is probably dynamic and it changes all the time to a diffrent IP. So the IP on which your server was is showing "99999".

You'll always have to add the IP from this site when you see that your server is showing "99999"


Hope it helped!
