Can anyone help me set up a linux server? - Developers

Title says it all, I've been trying to set up a linux server for a long time and I keep running into problems here and there from not running at all to getting a segmentation fault on certain maps or gamemodes. Here's my choice of OS's. [code] CentOS 4 x86 CentOS 4 32bit CentOS 4 x86_64 CentOS 4 64bit CentOS 5 /w Kloxo CentOS 5 32bit with Kloxo(free control panel) preinstalled. CentOS 5 /w rtorrent/rutorrent CentOS 5 32bit. CentOS 5 x86_64 CentOS 5 64bit CentOS 6 x86 CentOS 6 32bit CentOS 6 x86_64 CentOS 6 64bit Debian 4 x86 Debian 4 32bit Debian 4 x86_64 Debian 4 64bit Debian 5 x86 Debian 5 32bit Debian 5 x86_64 Debian 5 64bit Debian 6 x86 Debian 6 32bit Debian 6 x86_64 Debian 6 64bit Fedora 12 x86 Fedora 12 32bit Fedora 12 x86_64 Fedora 12 64bit Fedora 13 x86 Fedora 13 32bit Fedora 13 x86_64 Fedora 13 64bit Fedora 14 x86 Fedora 14 32bit Fedora 14 x86_64 Fedora 14 64bit Suse 11 x86 Suse 11 32bit Suse 11 x86_64 Suse 11 64bit Ubuntu 10 x86 Ubuntu 10 32bit Ubuntu 10 x86_64 Ubuntu 10 64bit Ubuntu 11 x86 Ubuntu 11 32bit Ubuntu 11 x86_64 Ubuntu 11 64bit Ubuntu 9 x86 Ubuntu 9 32bit Ubuntu 9 x86_64 Ubuntu 9 64bit [/code] Any help would be ever so much appreciated, cheers guys.

CentOS 6 64bit is working for me, you need to install 32bit libraries, besides that everything worked how it was meant to.

So how do I install these 32-bit libs?

[QUOTE=Handsome Matt;40766913]apt-get or aptitude install -y ia32-libs[/QUOTE] This is with Debian. - First you need to install everything and run it, when it says you're missing something do : [code] yum whatprovides the_library_that_youre_mising [/code] It should tell you name of the package you need, you can then do : [code] yum install package_name [/code] [editline]24th May 2013[/editline] Just a side-note, you shouldn't be running Linux if you don't know how to use Linux.

Debian 6 x64 = simple, fast & quickly

[QUOTE=jaooe;40770420]How else would I learn? Plus, it's free so I'm not losing anything :zoid:[/QUOTE] That's all well and good, but don't expect to get any sort of a player-base hosting servers on a OS you're to familiar with, especially since as Linux servers are currently unstable ( might need Python to confirm this ).

That's why I asked for help. This is the error I have been getting: [code] Console initialized.

You should probably remove all the bin folders and update only garrysmod. That's what I usually do in Windows when I get that crap outputted on "Game_srv.so loaded for".
