the server is running but VAC doesn't work !!
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?

but I can join the server
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.
