Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/GameServerManagers/LinuxGSM/issues/402

So i am running a dedicated CSGO server with your script and until the last update i had no problems, it was running perfect. After the update, something happened and i can't seem to find the exact same problem anywhere on the web.

Here is the problem. I run the server under Linux and when i start the server everything is normal as always. My server pops up on the public internet tab in valve's servers and i can also see it and connect to it. And here is the problem! When i connect, it goes to black screen with the following messages:

Connecting to public(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:27015) ... Server using 'public' lobbies, requiring pw no, lobby id ffffffffffffffff Connecting to public(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:27015) ... Server using 'public' lobbies, requiring pw no, lobby id ffffffffffffffff Retrying public(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:27015) Retrying public(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:27015) Retrying public(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:27015)

.. it retries 3 times and then from black screen, goes to the original loading screen background and does the same thing again. When it reaches 3 retries, it goes again to black screen and so on.

Do you have any idea what is going on?

Thanks in advance!

Yeah, i try the same problem.
But is the sourcemod. Because a install the metamod and the server run normal, after i install the source mod boom, a go have the same problem you having.

Are you using the last snapshots from sourcemod/metamod?

I fix my problem.

First: Deteting the sourcemod.vdf file in addons/metamod
Second: add this "addons/sourcemod/bin/sourcemod_mm" line in metaplugins.ini of addons/metamod.

Work fine now for me.

Ok. It really seems that the problem is the sourcemod. When i renamed the addons folder, everything worked. I installed the newest snapshot of sourcemod but the problem persists. I also did what marcelotk15 said and still didnt worked. When i check the logs this is the only sourcemod/metamod related thing i get

L 05/25/2015 - 12:00:30: [META] Could not open folder "/home/progamesgo/serverfiles/csgo/ˆ#R÷Ðòl" (No such file or directory)
L 05/25/2015 - 12:00:30: [META] Loaded 0 plugins.

EDIT: When i go into the addons folder and remove the sourcemod folder, the problem is still there, only when i remove the metamod folder, the problem is gone.

I was having exactly the same problem. Can you please:

  • Delete METAMOD & SOURCEMOD in /addons
  • Delete SOURCEMOD in /cfg
  • Download the last SNAPSHOTS version of both Metamod & Sourcemod. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THE NORMAL VERSIONS.

I finally fixed it. Problem solved with this steps;

  • Install metamod & sourcemod's last stable snapshots
  • Remove sourcemod.vdf from /addons/metamod/
  • Open metaplugins.ini and add this: sm addons/sourcemod/bin/sourcemod_mm

Thanks to @xMqt and @marcelotk15.

These steps didn't solve my problem with the same error message " Server using 'public' lobbies, requiring pw no, lobby id ffffffffffffffff ". I've do step by step everything but still having this annoying headache.....
