Hey guys, I have taken the pride of installing a server on my Linux machine to host for my friends. This is the procedure I followed to install the server.
1. I created a user on my Linux machine called gmod.
2. I logged in as that user.
3. [CODE]mkdir ~/Steam[/CODE]
4. [CODE] cd ~/Steam[/CODE]
5. [CODE]wget http://media.steampowered.com/client/steamcmd_linux.tar.gz[/CODE]
6. [CODE]tar -xvzf steamcmd_linux.tar.gz[/CODE]
7. [CODE]./steamcmd.sh +login anonymous +force_install_dir ../gmodds +app_update 4020 validate +quit[/CODE]
8. Waited for about 30 minutes for everything to download.
9. [CODE]cd ~/gmodds/[/CODE]
10. [B][U]THIS IS WHERE BAD THINGS START HAPPENING[/U][/B]
[CODE] ./srcds_run -game garrysmod +maxplayers 32 +map gm_construct[/CODE]
This is the output...
[CODE]gmod@Alec-PC-Lubuntu:~/gmodds$ ./srcds_run -game garrysmod +maxplayers 1 +map gm_construct

Nav File is wrong or something (4)
[/CODE]
At "[I]Nav file is wrong or something (4)[/I] it just hangs and doesn't give any more output.
It seems to me like it cannot load some Steam libraries. Is there any way to fix this? Any help is appriciated.
Usually those libsteam errors are harmless, but a simple symbolic link will suppress them.
[code]ln -s ~/gmodds/bin ~/.steam/sdk32[/code]
As for the hanging, maybe try throwing +ip <your external ip> in the command line?
