running server on regular user not root

[LukasKnd]

I have this problem i cant run my css server using my normal user. For this i need to login with root and run server.sh. i need some help from you guys to be able to run server with my regular user.

probably you have installed it as root user, so all files belong to root and thus are not accessible by the normal user. run this in the directory where you installed srcds:

Code:

chown <regular-user> -R .

(replace "<regular-user>" by the username you want to run srcds on)
