Hi,

A few minutes ago I was able to start my server correctly (VAC was enabled). I disabled it using -insecure and now it stops at Network IP like so:

Code: Select all

Loaded 446 VPK file hashes from /home/cheeba/Servers/css/serverfiles/hl2/hl2_misc.vpk for pure server operation.
Loaded 5 VPK file hashes from /home/cheeba/Servers/css/serverfiles/platform/platform_misc.vpk for pure server operation.
server_srv.so loaded for "Counter-Strike: Source"
[Source.Python] Loading...
[Source.Python] Loaded successfully.
maxplayers set to 32
Looking up breakpad interfaces from steamclient
Calling BreakpadMiniDumpSystemInit
Unknown command "r_decal_cullsize"
"clientport" = "27005"
 - Host game client port
Network: IP 192.168.178.76, mode MP, dedicated Yes, ports 27015 SV / 27005 CL

Removing -insecure from the starting parameters has no effect either. Have you seen this kind of behaviour before?

It's a dedicated server running on the same machine as the games (CSS, CSGO): Manjaro Linux based on Arch Linux, just so you know.

What is your entire command line to start the server?

./srcds_run -game cstrike -strictportbind -port 27015 +clientport 27005 +tv_port 27020 -tickrate 100 +map de_dust2 +servercfgfile server.cfg -maxplayers 16

Edit: What is -strictportbind? Is this needed? I don't know why it's there lol

Fixed it by removing srcds_run and updating the server again. Thanks anyways

-strictportbind will cause it to error if it can't bind ports (e.g. 27015), default behaviour is just to try 27016 and so on.
