I have a server and I'm trying to install a CSS gameserver just to learn really..

I would greatly appreciate it if someone could give me an insight into the way forward!

Thanks :p

EDIT: Counter Strike Source game server :P

google for "gnu screen" or screen tutorial linux

edit: it says in that srcds tutorial:
We will make a script that will run the srcds in the background in a "screen"
you will need to have screen installed for this. make a file called server.sh and put this in:

#!/bin/sh
echo "Starting Cs:Source Server"
sleep 1
screen -A -m -d -S css-server ./srcds_run -console -game cstrike +map de_dust +maxplayers 16 -autoupdate
 
Yeah screen works wonders.

i'd also look into some sort of deamon that monitors the process and if it isn't present it will restart it, should make it easier.
 
Thanks, didnt quite know what that was :p

I have to sort out the server again now.. for some reason it's giving me all sorts of errors!

Incorrect price blob version! Update your server!
ERROR: mp_dynamicpricing set to 1 but couldn't download the price list!
Error: Material "sprites/bubble" : proxy "AnimatedTexture" not found!
Section [Scenes]: 0 resources total 0 bytes, 0.00 % of limit (2.10 MB)
appdatacache.cpp (311) : Assertion Failed: !"Implement me"

I'll try a few things :P
 
First one is pretty self explanatory. You've set the dynamic pricing but it either doesn't have an IP/Domain to get the list from or the site is down or it's supposed to be a local path?

As for materials, i googled a bit and since it's a dedicated server, it shouldn't be compiled with material knowledge anyway.

Does the server still run with these errors?
