Hey community,

2 weeks ago my server suddenly stopped working after an update of ark. Since then I tried almost everything to make the server run again but without success... I even made a full new installation of the root-server I´m running ark on.
I have nothing installed but the ark gameservermanager and its dependencies. Each time I run
./arkserver validate I receive the following errors:

` fetching command_validate.sh...OK
[ .... ] Validate ark-server: Validating files: SteamCMD fetching check_system_dir.sh...OK
fetching check_logs.sh...OK
fetching check_status.sh...OK

    * Validating may overwrite some customised files.
    * https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/SteamCMD#Validate

Redirecting stderr to '/home/arkadmin/Steam/logs/stderr.txt'

This paragraph appears again and again until I cancel the validation...

Does anyone know how to fix this? I thought a complete new installation of the root-server would be enough :/

Thanks in advance!
