Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/GameServerManagers/LinuxGSM/issues/2896

User Story

As a server administrator, I want install a specific branch of the Rust server from Steam.

Basic info

Distro: Debian 10
Game: Rust
Command: Upgrade
LinuxGSM version: [v20.1.3]

Further Information

A new beta branch of the Rust server software is available and is identified with the branch title "aux01" and developer docs stating to specify branch "-beta aux01"

Following the instructions here: https://docs.linuxgsm.com/steamcmd/branch to specific a new branch does not appear to work with the required branch name of "-beta aux01"

Specifically the developer gave the advice:

"Server owners will be able to host servers as normal by using the following parameters: "app_update 258550 -beta aux01""

Here's an example of a failing upgrade:

[  OK  ] Updating rustserver: Checking for update: SteamCMD

Update available
* Local build: 5043165
* Remote build: 5055726
https://steamdb.info/app/258550/

Redirecting stderr to '/home/rust/.local/share/Steam/logs/stderr.txt'
[  0%] Checking for available updates...
[----] Verifying installation...
Steam Console Client (c) Valve Corporation
-- type 'quit' to exit --
Loading Steam API...Warning: failed to init SDL thread priority manager: SDL not found
OK.

Connecting anonymously to Steam Public...Logged in OK
Waiting for user info...OK
Success! App '258550' already up to date.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behaviour:

Update branch to branch="-beta aux01"
Issue upgrade command
Witness upgrade failing as in example above

Expected behaviour

Updating the branch configuration and running upgrade will cause the specific branch to be installed.

Slight update, when branch is set to just 'aux01', this is the result.

[rust-staging@gameserver rust]$ ./rustserver u
[  OK  ] Updating rustserver: Checking for update: SteamCMD

No update available
* Local build: 5043165
* Remote build: 5043165
https://steamdb.info/app/258550/


core_exit.sh exiting with code: 0

As of this post, here's the status of the public branch:

and with branch set to '-beta aux01' we get this:

[rust-staging@gameserver rust]$ ./rustserver u
[  OK  ] Updating rustserver: Checking for update: SteamCMD

* Local build: 5043165

which is the expected aux01 number:

Hope this helps! :)

Not sure if you have tried it without the beta tag, like it is in the docs:
https://docs.linuxgsm.com/steamcmd/branch

in this case you add only this:
branch="aux01"

and then you do a force-update with lgsm - to be sure to apply the branch.
Pls test, thanks

Branch
Allows the selection of specific builds of a game server in SteamCMD

This appears to have worked. I swear I tried this before; perhaps the force-update fixed it.
