Hello. Im new to Linux and I have installed my CS 1.6 server and all that, and now when I try to run it with this:

./hlds_run -console -game cstrike +maxplayers 20 +map de_dust2 +ip IP_HERE +port 27015

I get those errors:

SteamAPI_Init() failed; SteamAPI_IsSteamRunning() failed.
FATAL ERROR (shutting down): Unable to initialize Steam.

EDIT: fixed!

EDIT2: New Issue: Is there any autorun script for my server? I use PuTTY to access my server but when I shutdown the terminal the server goes offline. How can I do so it run even if I close it?

Use a screen. Navigate to your servers directory and:

screen -S name

Name can be whatever you want, just for keeping things in order. Then run your command. Then:

control+a+d

To close the screen. Now you can close out putty and the server will stay up. You'll need to look up screen on google or whatever and learn some more shit. Some other useful commands off the top of my head would be:

screen -ls (lists all currently open screen)
screen -r (rejoin a screen)

If you don't have screen:

apt-get update
apt-get install screen
