steamcmd appid 90 has been really buggy. It tends to not install all the server files on the first try.

Downloading the appmanifest files and manually putting them in the steamcmd appmanifest directory fixes this problem.

This appears to be a case of steamcmd not prioritizing downloading the appmanifest files (which are queued by the app_set_config command) before doing the actual server update. But, if the appmanifest files are already there, it processes them just fine.

Edit: To make matters more confusing, on Windows steamcmd may not create its own steamapps folder if you have the Steam desktop client on the same machine.

Valve just doesn't care about it anymore. Like Powerlord said you can add manifest files. I've done the method and it works. For more info: ( Oh, well its for Linux. Anyway, its good if you get the idea )

You can create the files yourself:

Code:

"AppState"
{
	"appid"		"$APPID"
	"Universe"	"1"
	"StateFlags"	"1090"
	"installdir"	"Half-Life"
}

You replace $APPID by the needed app id.
You have a list of app ids here: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/...pplication_IDs.

The base ids for every mod are 10 and 70 (which should install HLDM + Counter-Strike)
The relevant others ids are:

20: Team Fortress Classic
30: Day of Defeat
40: Deathmatch Classic
50: Opposing Force
60: Ricochet
80: Condition Zero

I've put such file in a GitHub repository (Daniel Gibbs's guide misses files)
You can use the following command to retrieve them at once:

Assuming your installation is located to /home/hlds; go to home/hlds/steamapps/ directory.
Download the relevant files depending your mod:
- CS : for i in 10 70; do wget -q https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Arkshine/hlds-appmanifest/master/appmanifest_$i.acf -O appmanifest_$i.acf; done
- CZ : for i in 10 70 80; do wget -q https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Arkshine/hlds-appmanifest/master/appmanifest_$i.acf -O appmanifest_$i.acf; done
- DoD: for i in 10 70 30; do wget -q https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Arkshine/hlds-appmanifest/master/appmanifest_$i.acf -O appmanifest_$i.acf; done
  etc..
Then you need to execute steamcmd (like you usually do) several times (three or four times) until all is downloaded.

These informations are wrong!
1) It only works with REAL steam-login, anonymous does NOT WORK!
2) I use the update command one time, it worls perfect, no need to do that severall times.
3) I've never needed an app-manifest to install the servers.

Open SteamCMD
Login anonymous
Do app_update 90 -beta beta validate
Wait till it's done.
Do app_update 70 -beta beta validate
(You'll get an error)
Do app_update 10 -beta beta validate
(Same error)
Do again app_update 90 -beta beta validate

It should now work. And yes, anonymous works too, I did it a week ago. Just because it doesn't work for one doesn't mean it won't work for the others.

And why should i do 3 more steps to install a server if i can simply use my real id to login and install the right app at first time?
Is there something wrong with using your real data?

Noone's forcing you to do anything. I am simply giving a method that works even as anonymous.
