Oddly enough I encountered the same problem today. Where might I find the compile logs?

The text that zooms by in the little window with the black background.
If you didnt already before you compile, you tick "Wait for keypress when done compiling", then once its done, check for problems

You can copy it from there, but its prolly better to copy it from your <mapname>.log wich is located at the position of your <mapname>.vmf
Paste it here in a code tag

Actually I would just try and copy/paste directly from the compile output. The log file has the compile log from EVERY compile you have done with that filename, so it's going to be a little cluttered if you paste the entire contents of that log file.

You have a leak. Fix the leak and the map will compile. You should be able to load a pointfile in Hammer to show you where the leak is at.

(map -> load pointfile)
then look for a red line running trough your map (visible in all views) that line goes trough the gap thats the 'leak' (and usually starts at a nearby entity)

I encountered this problem last night, fixing all leaks solved it for me too.

Fixing all leaks solves most problems. Hammer 101.

Except when you can't find your leak and the pointfile runs through solid geometry =P Still trying to find the damn hole..
Have a nice day,

In that case, stop using a grid size of 1 and always snap to the grid. The pointfile line will absolutely go into the void. Are you sure that brush isn't accidentally an entity?

That means you have multiple leaks. Keep plugging the leaks until vbsp runs without an error.

Don't use a grid smaller than 4, but I seem to have fixed the problem by deleting the solid that the line passed through and replacing it.
