I followed every bit of this article "https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/SteamCMD" regarding setting up a linux cstrike server, but i get this error every time

Did you re-run the install command continuously until it stopped downloading files? Did you do anything else to the server before running it?

The commands you used (both for install and for starting it) could be useful to see if you made a mistake there after checking the above things.

I did spam entry the command till it fully downloaded, I didnt do anything to the server before running it. I got it sorted for cstrike and hldm, but i have to run this exact entry "./hlds_run -game cstrike +maxplayers 16 +map op_desert" otherwise it will throw a segmentation error, if i ran"./hlds_run -game cstrike +exec server.cfg" or "./hlds_run -game cstrike" it won't work.

And if I tried to start a server for this one mod called "The Opera" it will throw this error

ok but steamcmd usually has to be run about three times to complete its installation more or less...

I just installed "cstrike" with a single run of steamcmd on Linux. I tried to run the command that you claimed worked but it said that that map doesn't exist. It ran fine if I ran it with a map that does exist (like cs_assault). You always require the +map argument with a valid map. However, if I run it without the +map argument, it doesn't segfault but you can't really do anything.

I've never heard of a game called "action" but the steamcmd command seemed to download (something) completely on the first try but when I try to start it, it doesn't seem to exist ("Invalid game type 'action' sepecified. [SIC]"). I don't see a folder with the name "action".

HOWEVER, I just noticed something, I wonder if your biggest problem is that you're trying to install a standalone HLDS server in the location where the client game files are located, this is not good. A standalone HLDS server should be installed "standalone", away from anything else.

so you're suggesting i gotta install it somewhere remote? like hlds under /home/rootusr/hlds and steamcmd under /home/rootusr/steamcmd

btw that's the list of steamclient.so files i got:
find -name steamclient.so

"./.steam/steamcmd/linux64/steamclient.so
./.steam/steamcmd/linux32/steamclient.so
./officialhlds/linux64/steamclient.so
./officialhlds/steamclient.so"

This is no longer true. If anything he needs to append and sign into the steamcmd as you can't download valve/cs/cz/tfc on anonymous anymore
