I hope you can help me.

[dzek (varez)]

looks like valid xml file. maybe you posted wrong file?

try reverting configs to default.

[Trevit]

The problem is that I started the server with all files as default.

I don't know what's the problem.

[dzek (varez)]

this is not default:

Testserver

What MTA version, where did you downloaded, which linux distro, etc?

[ccw]

As dzek (varez) said, the file is OK.

Do you have it in the correct location?

i.e. mods/deathmatch/mtaserver.conf
