What is this error, and how do I fix it? I don't understand what it's telling me to do. Can any of you help me with this? I would greatly appreciate it...

FindPortalSide: Couldn't find a good match for which brush to assign to a portal near (0.0, 2560.0, 88.0)
Leaf 0 contents: CONTENTS_SOLID
Leaf 1 contents:
viscontents (node 0 contents ^ node 1 contents): CONTENTS_SOLID
This means that none of the brushes in leaf 0 or 1 that touches the portal has CONTENTS_SOLID
Check for a huge brush enclosing the coordinates above that has contents CONTENTS_SOLID
Candidate brush IDs:

that usally indicates you have a leak of some type. put a big box around your whole map and see if it still occurs. if not, your leaked.
 
Doesn't look like it happened. How do I find "leaks" easily? I've searched for one already and haven't found it yet...
 
did you load a pointfile? If there isnt one to load then its not a leak.

I've gotten this error before but forgot how to fix it, sorry
 
Yep, it's usually caused by a leak. Load the pointfile (Map, load pointfile) and follow the red line to victory!

Yes, and then compile just BSP, look for ***LEAKED*** and then reload pointfile. If you've done a lot of work since last time BSP didn't say ***LEAKED*** you probably have multiple.
