Hosting Multiple GMod Servers on same machine

[Roe]

Hey,

I have a pretty powerful linux server and wanted to host some GMod servers on it. But i honestly know nothing about Garry's Mod at all. I use GameCP to manage my current game servers which is Minecraft. I know that GameCP has an a GMod install that I can download and use but it just throws errors upon start up.


Start up command:

Code:

./srcds_run -console -game garrysmod +ip 142.4.219.98 -port 27015 +map $STARTMAP +maxplayers 50 +fps_max 512 +alias fps_max wait +sv_visiblemaxplayers 50 +alias sv_visiblemaxplayers wait +hostname wold.dedicated.private.chunkyhosting.com

When I start the server

Code:

####### SERVICE START AT 2013-04-05 08:59 BY ROE #######

Auto detecting CPU
Using default binary: ./srcds_linux
Server will auto-restart if there is a crash.
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 3600.000000 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'.
Using breakpad minidump system
Using breakpad crash handler

Console initialized.
./srcds_run: line 372: 10407 Segmentation fault(core dumped) $HL_CMD
Add "-debug" to the ./srcds_run command line to generate a debug.log to help with solving this problem
Fri Apr 5 08:59:18 EDT 2013: Server restart in 10 seconds

I added the -debug to the command line so it looks like this:

Code:

./srcds_run -console -game garrysmod +ip 142.4.219.98 -port 27015 +map $STARTMAP +maxplayers 50 +fps_max 512 +alias fps_max wait +sv_visiblemaxplayers 50 +alias sv_visiblemaxplayers wait +hostname wold.dedicated.private.chunkyhosting.com -debug

with this result

Code:

####### SERVICE START AT 2013-04-05 09:00 BY ROE #######

Using default binary: ./srcds_linux

So I thought about installing it manually.

So how would I go about installing multiple Garry's Mod servers on the same machine?

I read through this guide http://maurits.tv/data/garrysmod/wiki/wiki.garrysmod.com/indexfd7a.html

But it needs to be a human there installs it using that guide since I have to type yes upon installing steam.

I would be very gratefull with any help with this since the Garry's Mod world is something very new for me.

Best Regards,

You can also use virtual machines as a way to separate data from the operating system itself. For example, you could click here to create a virtual machine that runs on your local machine, but then create another virtual machine that runs on your cloud-based VPS and store all of your sensitive data on that one.
