The problem in question, the current "owner" of the group hasn't been online since... Forever. There is also no way for me to get in touch with him, tried it for several years now. Saint K.

Re: [hlds_linux] Steam support
The longest joined "admin" will be the new owner, its based on how long your in the group. But what darth says is correct, i've done this many times. Just remove all admins except one, let the owner leave and ownership will go to the other person. However in saints example, the last person (owner) is nowhere to be found. I have the same issue, no clue on how to fix that. On Fri, 22 Jul 2011 11:43:03 +0200, Michael Johansen wrote: > It-s being done at random.

Re: [hlds_linux] Steam support
I've never tried this with a large group, but if the owner quits the group, the owner title should pass to the next admin. How the "next" admin is decided, I have no idea.

Re: [hlds_linux] Steam support
I can understand that sometimes it's a difficult call. However I've provided all the proof I can along with my ticket that I am the actual owner from Specialattack, and always have been. There's plenty of ways to confirm this. There is just something in general with that steamsupport that they just refuse to help you, no matter what. I can understand you can't just blindly going to reassign ownership, but I've demoted everyone accept for that one member (impossible), otherwise all group activity has always been done from my account. It can't get more clear. What I am fearing is that one day the old members account will be passed along or anything, and something stupid could happen to the group, which we already use since year and years. Saint K.

[hlds_linux] Steam support
The other day some genius on this mailing list told me: "Why do you report this here, shouldn't you report this to steam support" etc. etc. etc. I tried, and I knew I shouldn't have listened. It took them over a week to provide an initial reply, and once I got a reply, it was one of those default "you can do fuck all with this reply" replies. What does a community host do if they require specific support from steam which is not directly srcds related, but you won't receive any help from the steam support either?

Re: [hlds_linux] Steam support library problem
The only thing I noticed which looked interesting was in your original
posting.
L 06/23/2010 - 20:59:00: Log file started (file "/usr/local/srcds_1/cstrike/
logs/L0623002.log") (game "/usr/local/srcds_2/orangebox/cstrike") (version
"4234")
Logs are in srcds_1/cstrike but game is in srcds_2/orangebox/cstrike? Unless
you have some weird log directory specified.

Re: [hlds_linux] Steam support library problem
Thanks, but I tried it with -ip and I still got the same result.
If I change the map using "changelevel" instead of "map" then this error does
not happen. But if I try to restart the server using quit, restart, or
_restart, then the server says it will restart in 10 seconds and just hangs, so
there is something wrong. I'm just getting frustrated because it seems I'm the
only one with this problem, and everything worked fine before the big update.
I attached strace to the srcds_linux process, and this is what happens during
the long pause and subsequent "Unable to load..." message:

truth. Does anyone know what select() is waiting for?

Re: [hlds_linux] Steam support library problem
Thanks, I'll give that a try. Still seems like a map change using "map"
shouldn't kill a working server, though.

Re: [hlds_linux] Steam support library problem
Use changelevel, not map. Using map basically restarts the server.

Re: [hlds_linux] Steam support library problem
A new development. For the last few days, I wasn't able to establish a client
connection to my server at all after it started up. A connection would always
either crash the client or crash the server immediately. However, I just
restarted my server for the billionth time, and this time I was able to find it
in the master list and connect to it just fine. I ran around the map for a
little while with no problems.
A map change on the console is what always causes the server to lock up for 5
minutes and then give the Steam support library error, so I decided to try it
from the client and see what happened. I attempted to change the map via rcon
("rcon map de_dust2") and it did the same thing, and my client immediately got
disconnected from the server with the error "Disconnect: Server shutting down."
Unless some miracle patch comes out, I think my days of running a CS:S server
might be over, because this update done broke it but good. :-(

Re: [hlds_linux] Steam support library problem
Hello, Yes, I did copy the server config from my old CS:S directory into this one. Except for the server.cfg and motd.txt files, it is a completely default install. Start-up command line is the same as I was using for CS:S before the update: ./srcds_run -game cstrike +ip 72.237.4.31 -port 27015 +maxplayers 16 +map de_dust +sv_lan 0 -autoupdate -debug I don't think it's a permissions problem because the srcds user owns the install directory (/usr/local/srcds_2) and all of the files and directories under it. I also disabled the iptables firewall on the box temporarily because it was mentioned before that this could be caused by a connectivity problem with Valve's servers, but that did not seem to help.

Re: [hlds_linux] Steam support library problem
Thanks, but that doesn't seem to be the problem. This is just plain crazy. I rebooted the box (to make sure there are no weird ghost processes running, although there did not seem to be before). Then I created a whole new directory and did a full, clean install of CS:S into the new directory from Steam. Now, the CS:S server appears to start up just fine, but it crashes if someone connects to it. If I start up the server and then change the map using "map de_dust2" (or any other map name) in the console, the new map loads, but then the server hangs for about 5 minutes after this message is printed: [S_API FAIL] SteamAPI_Init() failed; unable to update local steamclient.dll. Continuing with current version anyway. During this time, I cannot type anything on the console, and the server stops responding to A2S_INFO and other queries. After about five minutes, it spits this message out to the console and then seems to be fine, except that no one can join it: * * Unable to load Steam support library.* * This server will operate in LAN mode only.* * Again, this is a clean CS:S install, but this is the third install of CS:S on this box which has had this problem. I never had any problems with CS:S on this box up until the last update. The box is also running servers for TF2, CS 1.6, and CS:CZ and those seem to be running just fine. The OS is Debian Lenny 64-bit, up-to-date. I'm at a total loss. - Dave - Original Message - From: tom nikitopoulos Date: Friday, June 25, 2010 8:51 pm Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] Steam support library problem To: Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list > thats a "error" given when server is quit isn't it? > maybe a server running in background? > > > On Fri, Jun 25, 2010 at 2:56 PM, David A.

thats a "error" given when server is quit isn't it? maybe a server running in background? On Fri, Jun 25, 2010 at 2:56 PM, David A.

Re: [hlds_linux] Steam support library problem
Hello, I'm still getting the "Unable to load Steam support library" error on startup. I am not running any plugins and I disabled SourceTV, but the problem persists. I've been running an update with -verify_all several times each day, but it always says that the installation is up-to-date so it does not appear that anything in my installation is corrupted. Anyone have any ideas? Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.

Re: [hlds_linux] Steam support library problem
Hi, I got that error last week when the Valve servers were overloaded. This was a TF2 server instance. I checked the binaries manually and moved some from a functioning installation while waiting for Valve to fix their update servers. The files that got corrupt were in the orangebox/bin directory, namely steamclient.so and libsteam_api.so. 2010/6/24 David Parker : > Hello, > > Sorry for the flurry of e-mails today.

[hlds_linux] Steam support library problem
Hello, Sorry for the flurry of e-mails today. Hopefully I'll get these issues straightened out soon and everything will work again. I just did a clean install of CS:S. It's a vanilla server with SourceTV enabled and no plugins or addons. The server starts up just fine, but then I get this on the console: * * Unable to load Steam support library.* * This server will operate in LAN mode only.* * maxplayers set to 17 (extra slot was added for SourceTV) Server logging enabled. L 06/23/2010 - 20:59:00: Log file closed Server logging data to file /usr/local/srcds_1/cstrike/logs/L0623002.log L 06/23/2010 - 20:59:00: Log file started (file "/usr/local/srcds_1/cstrike/logs/L0623002.log") (game "/usr/local/srcds_2/orangebox/cstrike") (version "4234") exec banned_user.cfg: file size larger than 1 MB! exec banned_ip.cfg: file size larger than 1 MB!

L 06/23/2010 - 20:59:06: World triggered "Round_Start" Restarted the server a few times, but it happens consistently. Any ideas?
