Hi there,
I try to set up my own Left4Dead2 Server, but when I start it, it throws many errors and warnings.
Also the server is not listed at the group servers...
Using this command to start: ./srcds_run -game left4dead2 -maxplayers 4 -verify_all
Here is the console ouput:
Hope it helps when you also take a look at the cfg file, which is correctly saved in the folder "cfg"

Running a benchmark to measure system clock frequency...
Finished RDTSC test. To prevent the startup delay from this benchmark, set the environment variable RDTSC_FREQUENCY to 2673.000000 on this system. This value is dependent upon the CPU clock speed and architecture and should be determined separately for each server. The use of this mechanism for timing can be disabled by setting RDTSC_FREQUENCY to 'disabled'.
