[resolved] MetaMod/SourceMod Installation

[PicnicBasket]

I must be missing something on the most extreme of basic levels. The story is, under no circumstances will MetaMod and SourceMod run on my server so far. I've been at this for almost a full day and have consistently met failure each try. I've swept the guides, FAQs, and archives for similar issues and nothing seems to be helping. I don't suspect this has anything to do with srcds itself; I'm probably doing something wrong somewhere.

BASIC INFO
Server OS: Ubuntu 9.10 32-bit
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4GHz
Ram: 2GB
Game(s): Team Fortress 2
Start Up Command: ./srcds_run -console -game tf +maxplayers 24 +map ctf_2fort
Admin Mods: MetaMod, SourceMod

Some steps I've already taken:
1. Started here: http://wiki.alliedmods.net/Installing_SourceMod
Checked my prerequisites.
2. Went here: http://wiki.alliedmods.net/index.php/Installing_SourceMM
Installed MetaMod, created the vmt file, placed it in the proper folder.
3. Installed SourceMod. Ran server.
4. Tested out the console command "meta version" in both the terminal running srcds and through my tf2 client on another computer through rcon_password.
Result is this:

Code:

meta version
Unknown command "meta"

5. Assumed MetaMod is not loading properly. Tried editing the GameInfo.txt to start MetaMod. I get the same result when using the command "meta version"
6. Got paranoid and copied the vmt file into every directory up to three levels deep (You don't need to tell me; I know). I get the same result.
Contents of the vmt file are this:

Code:

"Plugin"
{
    "file"    "../tf/addons/metamod/bin/server_i486.so"
}

7. Began searching the forums for similar issues. Tried various things I saw, nothing has any effect.
8. Deleted my entire orangebox directory and started over (twice)

Still nothing. Also of note, I was trying to install beetlesmod last night and had the same issues. I decided today to go for SourceMod, and my problems have mostly remained constant.

Is MetaMod/SourceMod usually this difficult to install and unwilling to run? I must be missing something on a facepalm level.

Na, on my windows servers I always just extract and go.

Can you type plugin_print and tell me what it says?

Strangely enough, it displays MetaMod and recognizes the "meta version" command. All I did was shut the host computer down before going to bed and restart it after waking up. :/

I also don't have the hundred lines of "failed to load this material." One thing that worries me is the line "exec: couldn't exec server.cfg." I have the server.cfg posted here: http://tf2wiki.net/wiki/Dedicated_server_configuration

Thanks for the help, guys. Now I need to get SourdeMod up.

Were you changing the map or restarting the server?

Yes and yes. I tried a handful of maps, unofficial and official, restarted the server, restarted the terminal, and deleted and re-downloaded everything twice. I don't know why I stopped short of restarting my computer.

Alright, MetaMod and SourceMod are both up and running on my server. I'm going to mark this as resolved, delete orangebox again and try to replicate what happened to see if I can't pinpoint the cause of my earlier problems.

Thanks for the help, guys.

Status update:
After restarting the computer, reinstalling orangebox, and reinstalling the mods, everything worked fine the first time. My assumption now is that I had missed a minor detail at first that caused the mods to not run properly. What that detail is will likely remain a mystery.

In any case, it's time to have fun playing around and learning the mods.
