RE: TF 2 Server Install
if there is no srcds_run the updater didn't finish. Simply run again till it's there.

I'm not sure, I don't really have any indication of that...

RE: TF 2 Server Install
I'm running on Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS Kernel 2.6.15-28

If by VPS you mean a virtual server, no.

Also I went into the /bin directory and chown'ed all the files to my shell user, and added 777 permissions to all of the files.....still no effect.

RE: TF 2 Server Install
Okay it looks like what was required was to run this command:

user@host:/srcds_l$./steam -command update -game tf -verify_all

That did it - sorry for mucking up the forum - hopefully someone will find this information useful. = )

RE: TF 2 Server Install
I've re-installed everything at this point and would like to add a few thoughts in case someone runs across this thread at some point.

I did not find the srcds_run script under the install directory as listed here, but rather under a subdirectory "orangebox" (so if you're installing in /orangebox, for example, then I found it in /orangebox/orangebox).

I ran across the same issue posted above and needed to do a -verify_all with steam before it would run.

Thanks!
