Process freezes at Calling BreakpadMiniDumpSystemInit

[cawi]

Hi,

Running some srcds servers on different machines but the last couple of days we noticed a strange bug on some srcds processes.

The process is starting correctly but freezing at "Calling BreakpadMiniDumpSystemInit" and then clients can not connect to the game server.

We have tried running it a million different ways now without any success. It happens on different ports and reboot doesnt change anything either, thinking perhaps some old processes was still listening on that port.

Running debian 6.0 64bit and latest gcc, glibc.

This happens to perhaps 1 of 100 game servers, any ideas what is causing this? What does BreakpadMiniDumpSystemInit actually mean?

Hey you say thad you run a 64 bit

you can try a 32bit

srcds is not 64bit supported

[Mike]

Lol wtf? Srcds does support X64 bit. Me and alot of other forum members are using 64 bit os'es

[saintjimmygd]

Try

Quote:apt-get install ia32-libs

[Mike]

The above command also fixes MetaMod: Source and Sourcemod for the sake of information

[cawi]

We are already running several game servers on the same machine and ia32libs is installed so the problem is something else unfortunately, any other tips?

[Mike]

Try re-installing the srcds thing with -verify_all

[cawi]

None of these solutions worked, not even -nobreakpad as suggested on another forum.
