[hlds] Steam and Counter-strike Source Crashing on Team Change to T
I just wanted to report that the 'crashing bug' when people join the Terrorist team seems to be back. We noticed then when playing some clan matches last night on our server. This is after the latest update. This had been there two updates ago - but seemed to be fixed on the update on Aug. 30th. It is now back again - although I'm happy to report that the 'Dead Spectate' bug DOES seem to be fixed now. This entire crashing of CS Source happened in 3 different matches when the 5 members swapped from CT over to T. It doesn't seem to affect the CT side though - oddly enough. Anyway, wanted to report - and hopefully it will be fixed soon. Let me know if any more information of logs are needed. Thanks, K.

Re: [hlds] issues (connection reset by peer errors) with latest updates
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I forgot to mention that downloading those 3 files during the verification process kept my server's connection with the download server alive long enough to not result in the "connection reset" error. So, the temporary fix is to delete an official file or two or three so that the update tool requests them sometime during the verification process.

Re: [hlds] issues (connection reset by peer errors) with latest updates
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] OK, I am confirming that it is definitely a timeout issue. I know this because I deleted 3 official files that were verified during the previous existing install failed updates; a map, a model, and a sound. When a file doesn't exist, the update tool is forced to download it. Anytime a file is downloaded, the timeout timer is reset. Because files are verified alphabetically, maps, models, and sounds are spread apart in time. The update tool downloaded those files at 3 different points in time, which reset the timeout timer 3 times during the verification process. Valve: There are many more files to verify now than there were two years ago. Please increase the timeout timer.

RE: [hlds] issues (connection reset by peer errors) with latest updates
Only Valve can know the actual reason for the error, I have a novel idea... Alfred; is it a timeout issue? If not, what is causing this? -Original Message- From: Trizik [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 13, 2006 5:49 AM To: hlds@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: Re: [hlds] issues (connection reset by peer errors) with latest updates -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] The reason I don't think this is an overloaded server issue is because a new, complete install does not result in this error. If a server is overloaded, why would a new install (which connects to the lowest pinged server) be successful while an existing install update (which also connects to the lowest pinged server) fails? For example, if I attempt to run a new install immediately after an existing install update fails, the new install will be successful. No matter how many times I try this and in any order, the result is always the same; existing install update is unsuccessful and new install is successful. The most noticeable difference between a new install and an existing install update is the time between the start of the update and the first actual file download. During a new install, downloading begins immediately. During an existing install update, many files must be verified before the first download actually begins.

Re: [hlds] issues (connection reset by peer errors) with latest updates
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] The reason I don't think this is an overloaded server issue is because a new, complete install does not result in this error.

RE: [hlds] issues (connection reset by peer errors) with latest updates
This is another thought of mine, I was about to suggest it :) Yeah, your hldsupdate tool will attempt to connect to your lowest ping'd steam server - perhaps its overloaded. May I suggest you *firewall/block* that steam server from giving you updates, and then try running the updater again, and you should get a new content server! - Andrew -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Roman Hatsiev Sent: Wednesday, 13 September 2006 6:08 PM To: hlds@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: Re: [hlds] issues (connection reset by peer errors) with latest updates In my experience 'connection reset by peer' is the common sign that content server is too busy.

Re: [hlds] issues (connection reset by peer errors) with latest updates
In my experience 'connection reset by peer' is the common sign that content server is too busy. Just keep trying. On 13/09/06, Trizik <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I have this exact same problem and like you mentioned it started 2 or 3 updates ago. When I run the update, it connects fine and then starts verifying files.

You can read my post here: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/private/hlds/2006-August/042091.html Like you suggested, I also think it is the result of some kind of timeout.

RE: [hlds] issues (connection reset by peer errors) with latest updates
I checked this page - http://www.steampowered.com/status/status.html - both
today when I was trying to update, and the last time I tried to update,
because initially I was thinking the same thing (I remember the issues Valve
had with their content servers almost 2 yrs ago when CSS was first
released). According to that stats page, there was more than enough
bandwidth available to handle a multitude of servers at once, both this time
and last. So it's a safe bet to say that the steam content servers were not
overloaded at any point during today's update.

I suspect the Steam servers are more involved than previously stated. The
ability (speed) of the client is very important to be sure, as a
non-responsive client will more likely be ignored. Still, if the Steam
servers are getting overloaded, they will drop connections ("connection
reset by peer").

RE: [hlds] issues (connection reset by peer errors) with latest updates
Whisper - I haven't altered any permissions on any of the server file content. Nothing is set as read-only. Andrew - before posting, I moved my server from behind the firewall and put it directly on the 'net, no filters at all. Same problem, several times over. Trizik - I am getting the *exact* same error, on the exact same file (for this update). I've tried deleting the file altogether to see if the update tool will just download a fresh file instead of trying to overwrite the existing one - didnt work. I'm curious what the session timeout value is for this process. But something has definitely changed since the new de_train update (this is when this problem started happening for me). - K2 -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Trizik Sent: Tuesday, September 12, 2006 9:32 PM To: hlds@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: Re: [hlds] issues (connection reset by peer errors) with latest updates -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] It's probably not a firewall issue since a new, complete install works fine.

-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Oh well, I tried All I can say is it works for me. This is the command line I use in my d:\srcds directory where HldsUpdateTool.exe resides and I jut used a cmd file to run it.

Re: [hlds] issues (connection reset by peer errors) with latest updates
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Unless the OS automatically does that, no. gameinfo.txt, for example, is not read-only and that is the file it fails on.

Re: [hlds] issues (connection reset by peer errors) with latest updates
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I have this exact same problem and like you mentioned it started 2 or 3 updates ago. When I run the update, it connects fine and then starts verifying files. When it reaches a file that needs to be downloaded ( gameinfo.txt is the first one) it spits out this error: Connection Reset, WinSock Error 10054 "Connection reset by peer" I wrote about this last month after the 08/30/06 update. You can read my post here: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/private/hlds/2006-August/042091.html Like you suggested, I also think it is the result of some kind of timeout. I am running the server on an older machine so it takes a little longer to verify files than modern hardware. And also like you mentioned, my only solution is to do a new, complete full install. Big waste of bandwidth and time. My server is running Windows XP. To summarize, yes - I am having the same problem. Someone mentioned in my previous post that this was common back in the early days of Steam because there wasn't enough bandwidth to supply all the connections and that the solution was to just keep trying. I don't think that's the case here because the new, complete full install NEVER times out.
