DeteCT0R Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 Did you have permission where u want to update? (Disk write failure) means you dont have permission or you HDD is crap. Or you dont have enough space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cms@sovereigngl.com Posted June 2, 2019 Author Share Posted June 2, 2019 So I know space isn't an issue as there is terabytes available. Copied data to another drive and same issue. Im checking the permissions but seems like this is localized to Ark servers as my 7 days to die servers and other steam update games are updating just fine on the same server. Not sure if I missed a step with steamcmd for the server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Make sure that the TCAGame user (or similar) has the proper permissions for the folder. Can you update if you run SteamCMD as root? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cms@sovereigngl.com Posted June 3, 2019 Author Share Posted June 3, 2019 Here is what I pulled dr-xr-xr-x / drwxr-xr-x home drwx------ tcagame drwxr-xr-x testuser drwx------ 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 It shouldn't be testuser (unless you've setup that user to run ARK servers). Try going to Actions > Repair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFA Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Disk write failure is usually fixed by deleting the steamcmd folders and trying again. rm -fr /home/tcadmin/Monitor/Tools/SteamCmd rm -fr /home/tcagame/SteamCmd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
