Hi, I've been trying to set up an offline LAN server for left 4 dead, however, I keep running into an issue.
console: ~/srcds/l4d/l4d$ ./srcds_run -game left4dead -ip 192.168.1.6 -port 27015 +map l4d_farm01_hilltop -nomaster +exec server.cfg -debug Enabling debug mode Server will auto-restart if there is a crash. # #Console initialized. #Game.dll loaded for "L4D - Co-op - Normal" #ConVarRef cl_language doesn't point to an existing ConVar Server is hibernating Queuing heartbeat send to legacy master server. Game supporting (2) split screen players maxplayers set to 18 Network: IP 192.168.1.6, mode MP, dedicated Yes, ports 27015 SV / 0 CL ---- Host_NewGame ---- Host_NewGame on map l4d_farm01_hilltop ConVarRef room_type doesn't point to an existing ConVar Executing dedicated server config file Commentary: Loading commentary data from maps/l4d_farm01_hilltop_commentary.txt. [S_API FAIL] SteamAPI_Init() failed; unable to update local steamclient. Continuing with current version anyway. Queuing heartbeat send to steam master server updater. ./srcds_run: line 337: 2889 Alarm clock $HL_CMD cat: hlds.2885.pid: No such file or directory email debug.log to [email protected] Fri Nov 27 01:22:34 CET 2009: Server restart in 10 seconds debug.log: ---------------------------------------------- CRASH: Fri Nov 27 01:22:34 CET 2009 Start Line: ./srcds_i486 -game left4dead -ip 192.168.1.6 -port 27015 +map l4d_farm01_hilltop -nomaster +exec server.cfg -debug End of Source crash report ---------------------------------------------- Whenever the server has an active internet connection, it runs just fine without any issues. When you unplug the internet however, it keeps crashing on ./srcds_run: line 337: xxxx Alarm clock $HL_CMD The goal is to set up a server that *can* work in a LAN environment without an active internet conenction. Any ideas/suggestions are welcome.
