L4D Linux Crash after round end
#1
Ok so Im having some issues with left 4 dead. No matter how its configured, or whether there are plugins enabled or installed or not, my server crashes after the first round. Error is:

String Table dictionary for downloadables should be rebuilt, only found 25 of 30 strings in dictionary
./srcds_run: line 368: 9942 Alarm clock $HL_CMD
Add "-debug" to the ./srcds_run command line to generate a debug.log to help with solving this problem
Thu Apr 2 00:56:08 EDT 2009: Server restart in 10 seconds

I'm not sure what this Alarm clock error is. That seems to be where things go south. Any ideas?

"Alarm clock" is a signal being sent to your server. This is usually sent by the system if a program (srcds_i486 in this case) sets an alarm clock, but then that program should then catch the signal.
I know this does not really help, I have no idea what this error could cause. Signals can also be sent from outside (e.g. using the kill command), maybe you have some other program running doing this?

Well that does open up some options to look in to. I was debating on reloading and going with a different distro to see if that has any different outcome.
