Seems like you didn't grant write permissions to the logs directory.

There is always a log. Please add -condebug to your start options and post the resulting console.log.

Hello dragonbytes, I have the same issue. This is a known issue and it happens because Source.Python is being compiled against GLIBC version 2.17 which is only available on RHEL 7 or higher where as most of the server hosts still use RHEL 6 (arguably for good reasons) and are not planning on upgrading until RHEL 8 is being released. It is likely that we will have to custom compile Source.Python against GLIBC 2.12 for the time being until this issue gets resolved. I'm going to try and do a custom compile during this weekend. If you host your own servers you could also try to start using e.g. Centos 7 which ships with GLIBC 2.17 by default. I was planning on doing that myself at first but since you and other users are facing the same issue, I guess there isn't much of a choice but to get it to work for the by far most distributed version of RHEL.

Thank you for the info, Correct me if i am wrong. Source Python needs to be compiled with the GLIBC library version 2.17. this library version 2.17 is currently only available in Centos7 or RHEL 7 or RHEL8. Most server hosts still use RHEL 6 for their servers after RHEL 8 is out they will most certainly upgrade to 7 which GLIBC version 2.17 is included and which is necessary to compile source python and load core.so library successfully

Eitherway we have 2 choices for people that rented a server..
We try compiling source python with GLIBC 2.12 and make it work.
or wait until server host upgrades their systems if rhel 8 comes out. which could be months or a year
ask them to upgrade to glibc2.17

BTW not really related to this post or forums but If i run my dedicated server at home iMac 27 late 2013 run it on linux should i be worried about its going to be dead after a long period?

There are plans to compile Source.Python with an older GLIBC version. I have asked necavi to setup another VM with an older GLIBC version for our buildbot. As soon as that has been finished the issue should be eliminated.

Sorry to necro, but I purchased a GameServers.com server to run GunGame on, and I am having this issue. Did we get anywhere with this? I don't see it anywhere on the buildbot, so I imagine the answer is no.

Can you be specific, What distro name and version and error? I cant promise that i'm helpful but i can try.

Other folks can help much better i'm not that experienced with computers so imo it would be better to ask them.

Well, the additional VM exists, but I have stopped working on it, because I was running into several errors which weren't easy to fix. Also, it's generally not a good idea to change the required glibc version SP gets compiled with due to bugs and security issues in those old versions.

I agree 100%, but unfortunately, I cannot run SP on a GameServers.com server without doing so. I'll work on building it myself tonight, just to get it working for the GunGame test server.

Well, unfortunately, I had many issues trying to get this working on the GameServers.com server. I realized that even if I figured it out, I would still have to do a lot of extra, unnecessary work each time SP is updated to get the new version on the server. So, instead, I reached out to their support to see if they could upgrade the server to get this all working. They were quick to reply and escalated the ticket after each failed attempt. But, in the end, we were unable to resolve the issue and they gave me a full refund.

Having said all of that, does anyone know of any game server providers where SP works?

What about VDS? You can set up everything on your own there.

Sorry to revive a slightly old thread but after terminating the conversion of my engine (running on my local machine) I realized that my hosting company would not support SP at all for a CSS game and looking through different forums it looks like finding a hosting company capable of running SP for CSS won't be easy. Mistake on my part for sure, now 2 questions:
1. Does anyone have links to hosting companies that DO run SP with a CSS install.
2. Should I give up on SP at least for CSS and is this problem similar with CSGO?

I have had success with both https://eoreality.net and https://www.nfoservers.com for CS:S. I have not attempted to create a CS:GO server.

What company? And why is SP not supported by them? Any specific errors or something? Some installation might not support SP (e.g. missing redistributables on Windows, or 32 bits libs on Linux) but if you contact their support they should be able to install them for you in most cases.

I'm having the same problem described here ( glibc2.17) and I'm hosted by gameservers which is described here as one of the servers that can't offer any solution. I'd love to fill a ticket with them but what are my chances at this point?

They said it's possible but they have to move me to new hardware which means new IP which is annoying. I'll let you know if they pull it off.
