Problems starting srcds...

[twiss2k]

Hi there,
I'm having problems starting the Source Dedicated Server... LAN only

The console output from the server is shown below:

server:/home/twiss/srcds # ./srcds_run -console -game cstrike +map de_dust +maxplayers 16 +ip 192.168.1.106

I'm running Suse Linux 10.1... I'll post there kernel version shortly...

System is:
Pentium 3 Coppermine 800MHz
768MB RAM
Geforce FX5200 using OS default drivers
250 + 120 + 80GB IDE HDDs
AOpen AX6BC Motherboad

   VAC secure mode is activated.

and this is where it stops... I have been unable to find any info on why this might be happening!

I have read that the "Material "sprites/bubble" error can be ignored as it is a texture thing and not used by the DS...
I have also been told that the banned_user.cfg and banned_ip.cfg are not a problem and they should be generated by the server when it (finally) runs. Is this correct?
I haven't been able to find a solution to this or the two net.cpp errors... but I have read accounts of others with these errors saying that their servers work fine...

I have tried using the -insecure parameter with the following results...

Can anybody help? Please!

Seems trivial, but try:

Code:

./srcds_run -console -game cstrike +map de_dust +maxplayers 16 -ip 192.168.1.106 -port 27015

srcds can be extremely flakey about commands at startup.

i have the same problem with , so many srcds release , i think that is a issue with lan mode, because i always run srcds in lan mode , i don't have full internet connection ,and i try this with 3 OS , ubuntu , debian , freebsd , when i run srcds without internet connection srcds stuck ,

i need help too

Thats what the output should be like - and is - when a server is up and running.

All other errors there can be ignored as they pose no significance.

Start-up line? Any errors? (other than the ones mentioned earlier in thread which don't affect anything)

Personally, i've tried on all those distros and never had problems running LAN servers :/

Coppermine CPU's don't support SSE, you need it to run the server

i test this:
i run my srcds in a FreeBSD 6.1 with Intel® Pentium® 4 CPU 1.60GHz , and my srcds hang without finish

and

i run my srcds in a Debian 2.6.22-6 with Intel® Celeron® CPU 2.66GHz , and my srcds hang without finish

and

i run my srcds in a Ubuntu 7.04 with a Intel Core2Duo CPU 2.4 ghz and my srcds run very well ,finish the load and still running ok

Now my Question is what happen ? exist a list of req of cpu to run srcds ?
