Sanity Free Coding

Well, this is the first time in history I ever encountered such a persistent problem, it simply will not be fixed in any rational way.

The Problem:
I downloaded and installed BF2ServerLauncher, the tool for hosting local BF2 servers made by EA a long time ago. Now, under most circumstances this application would work flawlessly, but for some random python related issue, it does either of the following:

A) When selecting serverconfig file (namely TLAN1.con) and pressing "Start", it should start up the selected profile (which I looked through way to many times, and it worked on previous versions of this tool). But, instead it gives me the following error:

Debug assertion failed!

Version: 1.1.2963-795.9 Build date:
Modile: GameServer
File: D:\Aphrodite\BF2_1.4\Code\BF2\Game\GameServer\GameServer.cpp
Line: 643

Text: 0012RD10

Current confile:

With the three choices of: "Cancel", "Try Again" and "Continue", all of them end in the same crash of console.

Now, what makes this so strange, is that in no installation of BF2 or the BF2ServerLauncher are these folders or files included, and after searching trough my computer (with the automated Windows Search function of course), it did not locate GameServer.cpp, and after reading trough 11 different forums and 16 sites that had any text relation or hint to whats wrong, none contained exact information about it, other than that it is related to python and that EA offers no support on it whatsoever.

So, anyone know what might cause this thing, a python error in a file that does not exist?

B) The console opens, but never loads the map/game, and remains unactive. Though, the one file that did launch the server, was the "Default.con", and even when just changing a little thing such as name of the server, I get the error code from A).

Anyone have any idea about how I can fix this? Really need a method of hosting a BF2 server locally and controlling it via console.
