I have this strange issue where if my servers running on custom ports launch in a tmux session on reboot they break and I'm unable to use those custom ports for the csgo servers again... 27016,27017,27026 are all blocked now. The only thing that fixes it is changing the server's port to one that has never been used before so 27027 for example. If the server reboots it will break 27027 and I will have to change it again.

What is your tmux commands for your session?

It sounds like you're just creating a new session and the server is still alive and using that port.

Run: netstat -tulpn | grep 2701

This is the .sh file that launches the tmux session

#!/bin/bash

# Create a new session named "newsess" and run a command inside the session
tmux new-session -d -s retakes1
tmux send-keys -t retakes1 "./retakes1.sh" Enter
# Attach to session named "newsess"
tmux attach -t retakes1

and this is the crontab command to run that command on boot.

@reboot /home/csgo/bootretakes1.sh

If I list tmux sessions it displays none are open so I'm not sure if they are running in the background somewhere. To close them I go into the servers tmux session and just type exit. Also the command you said I should try displays no information.

If you use crontab you have can't use relative pathes, so ./retakes1.sh won't work.

So putting

cd /path/to/your/scriptfolder/

at the beginning of your script should work.

Or try setting the absolute path to the script. Instead of "./retakes1.sh" "/home/csgo/retakes1.sh" should work.

also make the following addition to your crontab:

@reboot /home/csgo/bootretakes1.sh >> /home/csgo/logs/"reboot_`date +\%Y_\%m_\%d_\%H:\%M:\%S`.log" 2>&1

so you can check the log what's happening.

Also just set it to

* * * * * /home/csgo/bootretakes1.sh >> /home/csgo/logs/"reboot_`date +\%Y_\%m_\%d_\%H:\%M:\%S`.log" 2>&1

to test it, so the script runs every minute, so you don't have to reboot all the time.

You can launch on boot with crontab with this command. I use this for 15 CSGO servers.

@reboot cd /home/csgo/ && sh bootretakes1.sh
