Hello,
I'm hosting several TF2 servers, but after an update a couple of days ago, it wouldn't update. After a clean reinstall, it updated but wouldn't start properly. Seemingly everything is fine until it tries to initialize "Steam libraries for secure Internet server": Initializing Steam libraries for secure Internet server [S_API FAIL] SteamAPI_Init() failed; SteamAPI_IsSteamRunning() failed. I can still join the server, but the client crashes occasionally (not only for me). If I attempt to execute the etf2l_6v6.cfg used in competitive play, the server crashes with this message: exec etf2l_6v6.cfg PreMinidumpCallback: updating dump comment Uploading dump (in-process) [proxy ''] /tmp/dumps/crash_20120925112641_1.dmp success = no error: Failed to open/read local data from file/application Furthermore, MetaMod and SourceMod won't load. The box is running Debian and everything worked perfectly before this issue. Launch-string: ~/srcds_l/srcds1/orangebox/srcds_run -game tf +ip 192.168.80.50 -port 5506 +map cp_badlands +maxplayers 16 -autoupdate The +ip command is there to fix an internal networking problem. I scoured both the srcds.com and Steam forums to no avail. I tried a couple of things, mainly setting rwx rights and ownership to the user running srcds and adding the steam_appid.txt file to the orangebox directory. - Martin Alstrup _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
