Metamod & sourcemm On l4d2

[S7icky]

K well i have been tryin all day to get metamod & soucemm to work on left4dead2 heres what ive done.

Downloaded latests snaps of both mmsource & sourcemod Uploaded following file structure like im supposed to.

Where it messes up is when i add the metamod.vdf

It looks like the server starts but then it shuts off. If i remove the VDF file server runs perfect.

Heres my VDF.

"Plugin"
{
"file" "../left4dead2/addons/metamod/bin/server_linux.so"
}


and theres no logs when the VDF is on the server Soooo....

Any ideas?

Ive follows install directions to the T for everything and deleted server and reinstalled 3 times....

Darren you might be able to answer this.

The start up script on l4d2 wont start the server when metamod & source mod are installed.


Finnally got it working with a start up script.... Here it is thanks Mercy for the script


Heres the script....

#!/bin/bash

cd /home/sticky/.gameservers/l4d2_0
./steam -command update -game left4dead2 -dir .

cd left4dead2
/home/sticky/.gameservers/l4d2_0/left4dead2/srcds_linux -dir /home/sticky/.gameservers/l4d2_0/ -game left4dead2 +maxplayers 8 +ip 66.90.76.220 +hostport 27015 +exec server.cfg +map c1m1_hotel &

For what its worth, mine works without issue. But I set it up before 0.7.2 was released...

From what I can tell, something in these plugins malloc()s a large enough chunk of memory sometimes that it overruns what the ulimits set in the shell are (the shell that started cPGSD ?) So far just starting cpgsd.pl from a root shell will fix it, and it's not easily reproducible in any way that I know of yet (let me know if you find a way to trigger it) so it's quote a bugger to track down. I've just added some code to set some sane rlimits in cpgsd during startup so hopefully it won't be a problem going forward, but that assumes that my assumption of the cause is right and that the subsequent fix works as expected. I love assumptions
