TF 2 Server Install
#31
ok so last night I couldn't connect to the server and today i had a buddy connect.

I'm not sure what's different but apparently it works.

Those errors don't apparently matter.

Thanks for the post about how it should be working.

Hi,
how to fix:

Could not locate steam binary:./steam, ignoring.

steam is located in /home/user/srcds/
srcds_run is located in /home/user/srcds/orangebox/

The Server is working fine, but the server doesnt autoupdate ..

If your server still runs, just ignore.

And autoupdate for TF2 on linux doesn't work as far as i know. You need to just make a script to run hldsupdatetool first before starting the server.

I'm on a VPS.

Got everything installed, no errors that I could see. Here's the command and error I got.

Any help on getting this working would be appreciated!

Ok, it looks like it's trying to work now. Got some other messages, but I'm not sure if it worked yet. I'll have to check after I leave work Smile Any clue if these are errors i need to worry about? Figure I need to change the server.cfg atleast.

So do i have to keep shell window up to keep server running? Now when I run it, it stays at the "VAC secure mode is activated" message, and I can run some console commands... like i did sv_pure 2 just to see if it was taking commands, it it was.

So, do i just leave that open? And considering I'm doing this at work, is that going to be noticeable? Or can i just close the window?

New to running the servers, so sorry if these seems like a dense question. Thanks for the previous help btw.

I just finished my server.cfg, and wanted to restart to try and see if it changed stuff.

Also, how do i actually find the map on steam? It seemed to change the ip, but i'm assuming that was so me issue with being on a VPS.

So I was wondering if there was a way to get rid of the following messages when I start up the server.

Adding master server 68.142.72.250:27011
Adding master server 72.165.61.190:27011

This is going to be a LAN only server so I see no need for it to connect out to the master servers.

Also I can't seem to get the server to show up under LAN even though I set the sv_lan 1.

Add "-nomaster" to the startup command line.
