Happy Friday! Earlier this week SDK2006 was "upgraded" to Steampipe. Since then we're seeing:
SteamStartValidatingUserIDTicket: Returned ESteamError 25 on our HL2:CTF 2.1 (which was greenlit by the way, woo!) server, and a "STEAM validation rejected" in game. This appears to be happening to some, but not all players. I figure it's time to do an update on the server using steamcmd. There isn't an explicit AppID that I can see for HL2:CTF but I decided to try appid 204 (Source Dedicated Server). Trying to install appid 204 yields "ERROR! Failed to install app '204' (No subscription)" ./steamcmd.sh +login anonymous +force_install_dir ../hlds2/ +app_update 204 validate +quit Redirecting stderr to '/home/hl2ctf/Steam/logs/stderr.txt' [ 0%] Checking for available updates... [----] Verifying installation... Steam Console Client (c) Valve Corporation -- type 'quit' to exit -- Loading Steam3...OK. Loading Steam2...OK. Connecting anonymously to Steam Public...Success. ERROR! Failed to install app '204' (No subscription) This occurs with or without the "validate" option. If I login to a steam account, I see: ERROR! Failed to install app '204' (Invalid platform) I've also read of a client side work around that was used for Blackmesa ( http://forums.blackmesasource.com/showthread.php?p=561205) and it also includes the steps above, but it ain't working for me.

Clues appreciated!
