Hi Folks,

I'm a noob server admin, and I'm trying to get stats up and running. I've got what I believe are the most up-to-date versions of everything, but I've hit a bit of a wall at actually running the daemon and gathering stats. I see an E020: BAD DATA error, followed by E020 (ignored). What I've found online (and here) is that this is gonna wind up jacking my kill tracking. I've followed the advice in another thread to install the hotfix stuff, and restarted the script, but it didn't fix anything. Here's a bit of the log, so you can get an idea for what's up:

Anyone have any clues or next steps for getting stats up and running?

What's that mean? I shut down steam and restarted it, but I'm still seeing the same block of errors. can you clarify?

Is this a non-Steam server?

[5hortBu5]

Nope. It's TF2. I don't remember having to have steam running on the system before. Is this something new?Is there another service that I'm missing?
