You uploaded it to a server? wtf?

You can start the map on local you know.

Only other thing I can think of right now is you might of packed it wrong? you should be able to play it on a local while it is unpacked. Have you ever been able to play it Ingame at all, before you tried it on the server?

firstly, use some periods please when posting.

secondly its a problem with your info folder. If you are trying to run it in a LAN game, and its not showing up, go to map_name>info. You should see a file there named map_name.desc. My suggestion is to copy the .desc file from another map to your map and rename the file and this line
<name> map_name </name>
so they are spelled exactly as your map is.
