Reply With Quote #1

Hey all,

with the latest l4d2 update a few hours ago (2.1.4.5 i think) having these 2 files in my addon folder prevents the server from starting up.

tickrate_enabler.so
tickrate_enabler.vdf

The crashlog says

Code:
dlopen failed trying to load: 

/root/.steam/sdk32/steamclient.so 

with error: 

/root/.steam/sdk32/steamclient.so: cannot open shared object file: Permission denied 

Looking up breakpad interfaces from steamclient 

Calling BreakpadMiniDumpSystemInit 

#Game_srv.so loaded for "Left 4 Dead 2" 

Server is hibernating 

ConVarRef test_progression_loop doesn't point to an existing ConVar 

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

[S_API FAIL] SteamAPI_Init() failed; unable to locate a running instance of Steam, or a local

steamclient.so. 

Parent cvar in server.dll not allowed (spit_scaling_min_scale) 

Tickrate_Enabler: Found ServerGameDLL at ServerGameDLL005 

Tickrate_Enabler: Found VEngineServer at VEngineServer022
Using MetaMod:Source v1.10.6V, SourceMod v1.7.3-dev+5302

it's not a root server so i'm not able to change the permissions. Is it possible that this is related to update as it says "Fixed two exploits that could allow remote code execution on clients and servers."?

Is write access to this file required?
Is anyone else having this problem?
Is this file (potentially) shared with other source servers on the same host?

thanks for your input
