Re: [hlds_linux] Error writing to /tmp/dumps during SteamCMD install of game-server?

2021-02-23 Thread Mecha Weasel
No worries.  Thanks for the reply and ideas! ("thoughts and prayers"?).

I'm just going to abandon the idea of using more than one linux user to run
it under.
That's the easiest path forward right now.

Glad I don't have to run processes like that for work in a "secure"
environment!
The SecOps folks would be like: "What do you mean you can't specify exactly
what ports and paths the process uses?"
:-)

Re: [hlds_linux] Error writing to /tmp/dumps during SteamCMD install of game-server?

2021-02-23 Thread Ook
Isn't /tmp normally chmod 777? Anyone should be able to write to it. In 
this case, it should be able to create /tmp/dumps (if someone else 
doesn't already own it), and then write to it. It's possible the message 
is a canned message and something else is wrong. Like the maybe the devs 
just assumed you would use root to install it? If I had time (I don't 
tonight, sorry), I would give it a shot myself to see if maybe it's 
weirdly distro related. What is your steamcmd command line(s)?

Had to reboot to get /tmp cleaned-up and everything working for

Just weird that I would really like to keep both users 100% isolated

SteamCMD to not use that shared /tmp/dumps folder.

Re: [hlds_linux] Error writing to /tmp/dumps during SteamCMD install of game-server?

2021-02-23 Thread Mecha Weasel
lol, I presume there's no way to specify that port or range of ports for
SteamCMD to use either ...

Loading Steam API...CreateBoundSocket: ::bind couldn't find an open port
between 27060 and 27060

wow, 27060-thru-27060 such a wide range! and obviously friendly to multiple
instances.

Yep, disk space is wide open.
Tried opening-up perms on /tmp/dumps to new user or even just "users", did
not help.

Have you tried opening up privileges on /tmp/dumps? Either chown to your
