[SOLVED] Could not establish connection to Steam servers + VAC

I installed server with SteamCMD, and when i put this command

Code:

./hlds_run -game cstrike -autoupdate +maxplayers 32 +map de_dust2 -port 27015 +exec server.cfg -tickrate 100 -sys_ticrate 1000 -pingboost 3

the server is running but VAC doesn't work !!
and I see this error :

Code:

[S_API FAIL] SteamAPI_Init() failed; SteamAPI_IsSteamRunning() failed.

Forcing breakpad minidump interfaces to load

dlopen failed trying to load:

HERE I saw that I should add +ip 127.0.0.1 to the startup line. It looks worked fine

Code:

Did you install Hamachi or any other proxy that runs on your network? If not are you even connected to the internet while running the server? If so what is your ISP? Did they blocked Steam?

As far as I know, there is no need for that. Like i'm using this command to start my server (You try to start server with this command, too, and see if the error happens again:-

PHP Code:


		
			
-game cstrike +servercfgfile server.cfg +maxplayers 27 +map deathrun_arctic -port 27017 -console

And see if happens again, tell me. Also make sure there is no illegal plugins on your server like dproto, or any other illegal plugins as well.

Re: Could not establish connection to Steam servers + VAC

Try adding +ip your.ip.address.here

Re: Could not establish connection to Steam servers + VAC

Use +

Quote:

+ip x.x.x.x +port yyyyy

Re: Could not establish connection to Steam servers + VAC

Done ! it works
but it must be added at the end of the line !

Re: [SOLVED] Could not establish connection to Steam servers + VAC
