How to disable it? I haven't map on FastDL and don't need it there.
Is the actual map file somewhere in your server files?
no
There is really no way of stopping the client from trying, other than making them download the map before fastdl (via workshop for example, or having then have it previously) Therefore the way of fixing it really would be to setup correctly your server downloads unless you don't want people to download the map, stopping them from completely joining your server
My map already on WS but FastDL still trying get it. How I can fix it?
How do you have the Workshop setup on your server? Did you add the workshop of the map to the workshop download list to the clients via resource.AddWorkshop?
The downloading of map is ok, but during the connection fastdl trying to get it. Error log from nginx: 2019/05/24 10:41:03 [error] 595#595: *3221 open() "/path/to/html/fastdl/maps/rp_mytown.bsp.bz2" failed (2: No such file or directory), client: 92.243.136.43, server: _, request: "GET /fastdl/maps/rp_mytown.bsp.bz2 HTTP/1.1", host: "host.com", referrer: "hl2://89.213.31.218:27015"
Why not just put the map in FastDL? If you do players that have "cl_downloadfilter mapsonly" can still download the map if they don't already have it. If it's on workshop and they don't have it it'll still try to download it from FastDL but eventually kick them because they can't download it.
Ehh well. FastDL slow than workshop. But I'll try something.
That error literally means the download is not okay, it's telling you it can't find it on the server. Therefore, you should do it so that they download it via workshop, using fastdl for workshop maps is NEVER recommended, because if they get update they might get conflicts with it or so on.
I don't use FastDL for downloading map. I getting map through workshop.
You can't download maps through the workshop unless you have "cl_downloadfilter all".
Ah shit that's what you meant, okay I got what you meant wrong. You're not getting it through workshop, if not you wouldn't be getting that error on your fastdl server. Check your gmod options, and the Multiplayer tab, see what option you have there for the downloads. You should set it to allow all.
