segfault on 1.3

[Kissaki]

the dystopia server will segfault for me, on my x64 Debian server; TF2 does work

Code: Select all

pub/orangebox# ./srcds_i486 -console -game dystopia -port 27020 +map dys_vaccine

Console initialized.
Segmentation fault

Where pub is the folder I installed -game orangebox into, and pub/orangebox the folder I installed -game dystopia into.

I also now tried it exactly with the 2 commands on the wiki page, using that folder structure (apart from the user)
http://www.dystopia-game.com/wiki/index ... ough#Linux
still, same problem; ./srcds_run -game dystopia will die with a segfault.

me to. did you move your 1.2 dystopia and hl2 folders to the orangebox folder?

You can't mix HL2 and Orange Box engine files by moving it. It will not work, different engines...

[Atomy]

make sure u guys arent using orangebox of tf2, since orangebox != orangebox - the mods got a different version of orangebox(-game orangebox) then cssbeta and tf2 uses

in your orangebox/bin/ dir should be, engine_amd.so, engine_i486.so, engine_i686.so, afaik the tf2 orangebox just has engine.so in its orangebox/bin/

As I said I followed the wiki.
I ran those 2 update commands, orangebox and dystopia,
and then tried to run it from within the orangebox folder, which segfaulted.

Indeed. It is.

I also receive a segmentation fault when starting srcds, after following the wiki article. Did anybody find a fix to this?

Add "-debug" to the ./srcds_run command line to generate a debug.log to help with solving this problem

I've been getting them randomly sometimes, but yeah cant help here that much, you could try debugging with the help of gdb, retry it to see if its happens randomly.

[Atomy]

when you are still trying, here's another hint, go into the orangebox/ dir of your server installation, do a ldd dystopia/bin/server_i486.so and look for any "=> not found" errors, we dont really depend on anything but maybe you are missing some libs on your machine (ignore the tier0, vsdlib, steam_api stuff, its in orangebox/bin and will be loaded on server start)

let me know if that helps!

I have had this problem and followed some vaguely related advice in a another thread which pointed out that 1) the two updates should be run in a certain order and 2) you can use a -verify_all tag on the orangbox install to check it.

After running the two in order, then running the verify seperately, it downloaded a lot of different files, and the game now runs seamlessly. It might be an idea to update the wiki instructions? I know I am not the only one to have seg faults when following those instructions

Thanks, Sym

I think I tried the wiki steps a while ago on a clean box and it worked, the order is indeed important since the game "dystopia" overwrites some orangebox files with wrong versions of them
