Hi all, I installed another HLDS instance yesterday to operate a Natural Selection server, and I have encountered a problem with the running of the server.
After the initial install and update of content for the "valve" game, I installed the Natural Selection mod per the regular process. After starting up, the server operated fine, under a non-privileged account. This morning I woke up to the server offline, so I attempted a server restart for the NS instance setup. Here is the console dump. ------------------------------ # ./hlds_run \ > -game ns \ > +hostport 27016 \ > +servercfgfile server.cfg \ > +mapcyclefile mapcycle.txt \ > +maxplayers 16 \ > +map ns_shiva \ > +ip ___.___.___.___ \ > -nohltv \ > -autoupdate Auto detecting CPU Using AMD-Opteron (64 bit) Optimised binary.
