"Unable to initialize Steam"

[Felipe T]

Hello guys,

 

Today my server crashed, and the datacenter restarted it for me.

 

When it came back, any srcds server ran. I get this message:

 

"Fatal error - Dedicated Server:

Unable to initialize steam."

 

(HLDS servers, like CS 1.6, are running)

 

I have tried to install Steam Client, but it didn't work.

I tried to run a TF2 server manually, wit TCAdmin closed, and it worked!

 

May it be a problem with TCAdmin? Also, there's a server that was having problems with replay, and now when I ran it manually, is working good.

I have reinstalled TCAdmin, and now all servers are with "Unknown" status.

I have reinstalled TCAdmin, and now all servers are with "Unknown" status.

 

 

 

Restart the services named TCAdmin Monitor and TCAdmin Service Manager. Then Works!

If you reinstalled TCAdmin it probably lost all the file permissions. Go to General Settings > Game Tools and run the repair tool on your server.
