When attempting to start the dedicated server for CS2 I keep getting these:

I followed the Valve article on this but am not quite sure wtf is going on considering when initially downloading steamcmd's files via terminal it should download the necessary files but hasn't.

This is the link to the article I used:
https://developer.valvesoftware.com/...dicated_server

Note: I also did the prerequisites before downloading the steamcmd files, etc. Any help to resolve this would be appreciated.

OS: Ubuntu 22.0.4 x64

Hi,

I've made a script for this as I had the same issue:

#/bin/sh cd /root/.local/share/Steam/steamcmd/linux64/ mkdir tmp mv steamclient.so tmp/ mkdir steamclient.so mv tmp/steamclient.so steamclient.so/

to do after every update

I'm unsure if it worked or did anything to resolve the issue, but it only put a tmp and steamclient.so directory on my desktop lol

Create symlink (shortcut in Windows language), it should look something like this:

ln -s ~/Steam/steamcmd/linux64/steamclient.so /root/.steam/sdk64/
ln -s ~/Steam/steamcmd/linux32/steamclient.so /root/.steam/sdk32/

Or just copy your steam client like this:
cp ~/Steam/steamcmd/linux64/steamclient.so /root/.steam/sdk64/

Tried those as suggested, the following is returned in screenshot.

Make sure the path exists, in my case linux64 folder was missing, i had to create the folder and afterwards symlink steamclient.so again

I've done this. Now steamclient.so exists in /home/steam/steamcmd/linux64, etc, but still the same issue.

I think folder name its .steam not steam you need the . before steam.

you seems to be not having the folders at all. Just make a directory with mkdir .steam (hidden) and then another one inside it called, you can call it sdk64 and copy the steamclient.so file there.

Hope this helps.

Yeah now I just get this:

ln: failed to create symbolic link '/home/steam/.steam/sdk64/steamclient.so': File exists

EDIT 8:50 AM London time:

I decided to try Open Game Panel but the game server(s) still won't start despite following the installation guide for OGP.
