Re: [hlds_linux] l4d2: how to shutdown via cron?

2010-07-04 Thread Ross Bemrose
  In my experience, Steam updates on Linux are not stable enough to let 
it auto-update.  Steam skips a package if it doesn't manage to download 
said package in so many tries.  I've had it happen far too often on TF2 
where it will update one package but skip another, leaving the server in 
an inconsistent (crashing) state.

This may not be as large a problem for L4D2 because it only has 3 
packages, 1 of which is rarely updated... but TF2 only has 6 packages, 3 
of which are rarely updated and it often skips the Team Fortress 2 
Content package but updates Materials and Dedicated Server.

Do you have that script still? I could make it check for  
announcements. It would actually be very simple to do so.

 Hi all

 I'm going to slightly threadjack here.  I'm a very experienced unix
 sysadmin, but I'm a noob to the hlds servers.

 On this subject, how do others handle automatic upgrading when  
 there is
 a new server update is out?  Is it even wise to attempt auto  
 updating?

 I know there is the -autoupdate arg to the startup command, but I'm
 under the impression that it's broke, and has always has been  
 broke.  I
 might be wrong there though, feel free to set me straight.

 So, how do others handle automatic updates to the server app?

 And yes, I realize that doing said auto updates may break mods,  
 but hey,

I had it set up so I can issue simple commands in shell so that it will
broadcast a message to the players (if any), shutdown, run update, and when
finished, it starts back up.
That way, it would be easy to ssh in from my phone, issue the command and
viola!

I think he means a way to automatically restart srcds and update when 
one is announced.

I have never done it myself, but I imagine there is a way to hook these 
announcements, either with a sourcemod plugin or by monitoring the 
output of the console/screen session. Infact I vaguely remember a little 
while back the same subject being discussed.

Try doing a search on the mailing list website

Re: [hlds_linux] l4d2: how to shutdown via cron?

2010-07-04 Thread Chuck Gibke
-You can get cron to run a script that you have in the srcds directory. I
use screen and my script (stop_css) looks like this:

/usr/bin/screen -r css -X quit

-On cron, I run this script at 5 AM everyday:

0 5 * * * /etc/rc.d/css stop

-The css file looks like this:

#! /bin/sh
#
# /etc/rc.d/css
#
# run/stop CSS via screen

export SRCDS=/gamedisk/games/halflife/srcds

echo "SRCDS CS:S"
case "$1" in
start)
echo start
su [username] -c 'cd /gamedisk/games/halflife/srcds ; ./start_css' >
/tmp/hlstartCSS.log
;;
stop)
echo stop
su [username] -c 'cd /gamedisk/games/halflife/srcds ; ./stop_css'
;;
esac

-You must be root to enter the cron command. Notice that the script switches
to a different user. This is recommended for running a game server (don't
run as root).

These start and stop scripts in rc.d are also used to start and stop the
game servers when the system reboots or shuts down. There are links in rc3.d
and rc5.d - S19css and K02css - for this purpose.

Hope that helps.

You're using named instances of screen, right? if so, you can use that to
"inject" commands into each instance.

Try removing metamod (and sourcemod and such)

My server segfaulted since the last update because of the runteamlogic

 Do you let women vote on your servers?

 How about if somebody specs below the belt line.

 Im glad we allow freedom of speach on our servers. Send me your ban
 list so I can invite them all personally to play on a server that
 defends the rights of freedom of speach.

1) These are not forums, it's a mailing list. forums.srcds.com are forums.
2) And nothing of value was lost.

to  M33CROB:
You're being a bit pretentious are you not?  I am a server admin like every 
other user in these forums.  Don't be so patronising please!

To murroid:
What business? Its a game server - a popular one - why would I want to drum up 
more business?  It does perfectly fine on its own!
Can't a guy give some friendly opinions (based on a parent's concern for his 
kids exposure to abusive and racial slurring) and show by example there are 
some decent servers out there?

If you two have nothing better to do than troll the forums inciting flame wars 
forget about it.
