• Startup error on srcds.exe
    7 replies, posted
The Procedure entry point [EMAIL="?Lock@CThreadFastMutex@@ACEXII@Z"]?Lock@CThreadFastMutex@@ACEXII@Z[/EMAIL] could not be located in the dynamic link library tier0_s.dll. Occurs 100% of the time when starting up the module. Always seems to occur when the Level 5 section of CAF prints in the console.
Found this in one of the older threads. [QUOTE=fstab;23542792][url]http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?p=16224531#post16224531[/url] tl;dr: 1) Delete C:\srcds\orangebox\bin\steamclient.dll 2) Start server with Steam running[/QUOTE]
This error only started after the latest srcds.exe update via hlds. If I run the server with steam running, then I wont be able to play on it, and further more, my auto-restart scripts wont work at all, since they work under the assumption that I am away from the pc. I cant sign into steam, start srcds.exe, and then sign out of steam all via bat file.
Ahh THANK you, i had this issue too and you have solved it! hooray for a now flawless server bootup!

Just delete the dll and all will be well. I do run a development server on the same machine i game on, it is no problem at all for me.
[quote]Wrong, you can play on it with steam running and the server[/quote] From what I recall, you can only be signed into steam at a single location, so having steam running on a remote dedicated server during the startup phase of the server, is unfeasible - means I wouldnt be able to run steam on my own home pc. Actually, All I had to do to resolve the issue, was copy tier0_S.dll from the steam oob dedicated server gcf into my srcds bin folder. Problem solved.

[/QUOTE] I don't think you actually need to have games on a steam account to be able to download dedicated server tools, so all you would need is create a blank account for your dedicated server.

I have the same error on my Dedicated server. Haven't got steam running on it, nor have I ever. But since the lates tf2 beta update I get the "Lock@CThreadFastMutex@@ACEXII@Z" message every time I try to load the server. All the normal servers load fine. Datmeg's supplied fix worked though
