I'm pretty sure this is a problem with SteamCMD. Back in January, I could install the CS:GO server without any trouble, but ever since yesterday I've been having trouble getting a new server working. I have 2 other servers running on the same machine without troubles, and they have been running for a month. It seems like SteamCMD doesn't download all the necessary files for the server. I've noticed that the file steam_appid.txt and the folder /Steam/ is missing (they are both on my old servers).
Please keep in mind that I've tried messing with this on 4 different machines in 3 different datacentres on 2 different Linux distributions.
When I created the file steam_appid.txt manually and wrote 730 in it, the server just stopped at this:
Initializing Steam libraries for secure Internet server
[S_API FAIL] SteamAPI_Init() failed; SteamAPI_IsSteamRunning() failed.
Segmentation fault

That's as far as I got.
