Hey all,

I'm a Linux novice, but fairly competent at command line work. I'm not super familiar with source based servers. I setup a CSGO server which resides on a dedicated Ubuntu 18.04 server in my home. I setup a VPN for my friends to connect to my router so that we can play without exposing the server to the wider internet. I had it working with Source mod for the last two updates. With the last update which happened yesterday or the day before, now my server is starting, and you can attempt to connect, but it fails. On client side, when you select the server from the browser, it says "connecting to server", fills the loading bar in about two seconds, and then dumps to the main menu without any error.

When I go to update the game using steamcmd it says that the game is up to date, but when I check the csgo server logs when I boot, it tells me that the server needs to be restarted to be updated. I have tried launching with the auto update flag, and that causes the server to boot, try to apply the update by restarting, and then loops that function.

I enabled the logging for the console, since I normally run it with Screen so that I can quit the ssh session and leave the game running.

Here's the server console.log file which will help, I think: https://pastebin.com/AGhN1NYf


Thanks for any advice,
