No worries. Thanks for the reply and ideas! ("thoughts and prayers"?). I'm just going to abandon the idea of using more than one linux user to run it under. That's the easiest path forward right now. Glad I don't have to run processes like that for work in a "secure" environment! The SecOps

[hlds_linux] Error writing to /tmp/dumps during SteamCMD install of game-server?

Hmm... I am trying for the first time to have game-server instances running under different simultaneous (non-root/non-sudo/unprivileged) linux users, and noticed that SteamCMD is failing during a SourceDS install for a game, complaining about a "disk write" error and something to do with

Re: [hlds_linux] Error writing to /tmp/dumps during SteamCMD install of game-server?

Isn't /tmp normally chmod 777? Anyone should be able to write to it. In this case, it should be able to create /tmp/dumps (if someone else doesn't already own it), and then write to it. It's possible the message is a canned message and something else is wrong. Like the maybe the devs just
