Problem Description

Issue

So yeah im tryna set up a csgo server and like ive done it many times just using a install on linux, but im trying to use this panel, and every time i try to connect to the server it crashes, ive put in the fix you need to do and that doesnt help either, but it just constantly crashes when a player connect and ive have easily enough computer specs to run the server, and then it wont let start up the server again. but im pretty sure its not even fully loading up

Reproduction Steps

  • re installed the csgo server to a clean install
  • all ports are open thats require
  • changed the gamemode im loading up
  • asked around on discord but no help

I’m having the same issue. In case it’s helpful, here is what I’m seeing:

When I try to connect, the server goes down with nothing in the console. The client gets stuck on the loading screen with the message “Connecting to server…”, but the in-game console shows that it is connected to the server. On the server-side, I see that I am connected, it displays the server cvars, then it crashes. One of the cvars is highlighted red for no apparent reason:

01/27/2025 - 07:16:11: server_cvar: "cash_team_planted_bomb_but_defused" "0"
01/27/2025 - 07:16:11: server_cvar: "cash_team_terrorist_win_bomb" "0" // <-- this is red
01/27/2025 - 07:16:11: server_cvar: "cash_team_win_by_defusing_bomb" "0"

That cvar is always printed red. Not sure if that is related at all though.

It’s red because it has “error” in it and AMP just does a dumb search for that keyword to colour the console text

I was able to resolve this! Under Configuration > Updates > SourceMod and MetaMod, I changed Metamod to Development (1.12) and SourceMod to Development (1.13). Then make sure you click Update under Status > Actions.
