no progress saving on a custom map

[Krot1]

Couldn't write save file! We got an exception: System.IO.IOException: Win32 IO returned ERROR_INVALID_NAME. Path: C:\Server\rustds\server\Hello_World\uc?export=download&id=11IIvsHU51zIHxG8S2uRZeUHcHz1ZkpQZ.281.sav.new

progress is erased after a restart.

Google drive is not good for map hosting , use either dropbox or a private storage of yours with direct download link generation or mapstr.gg

How are you hosting your map ?

Also does your server have permissions to save folder in root?

progress is only saved on the procedural map. The server is running on a home computer. How can I check if the server has permissions? The custom map is saved on Google Drive.

Thank you for your help, I'll write if I can't.

Upload the custom map file here as an example   -  https://mapstr.gg/

 

It will give you direct download link to the map file which is needed in server.levelurl

It looks like you're running Windows, 
like Ionut Shiro already suggested:   there is a permissions problem (this is Windows related), 
the file path of your local server - it should not be in the root folder of your  C:\ drive
for general default security reasons.

To simply avoid those permission issues (goverened by your OS)
then move your local test server to another disk, or partition if possible. 
It will be simpler that way. instead of changing UAC application control and disk read write permissions, 
this will take more time but is relatively simple to do.

Put the map in Dropbox also like IonutShiro suggested, it wont download correctly or even at all from GoogleDrive. 
make sure the end of the dropbox linik shows =1  and not =0    when you paste the link into your server levelurl startup line.

If you only intend to run your RustDedicated instance
on a local non networked or offline system, you can host the map locally on another drive instead of online.
Simply add the drivepath like so:     "file:///path/to/your/custom.map"
ensure the path is appended by "file:///"        path is your folder structure and location.   

Hopefully that helps further.

By far the simplest solution
