OS Name/Version: Ubuntu 22.04.5
Product Name/Version: AMP Release “Callisto” v2.5.1.8
Problem Description: I am encountering issues with the Vein Dedicated Server related to Steam API initialization. The server fails to log in using anonymous credentials, leading to error messages about accessing Steam interfaces before the API has been initialized.
[S_API FAIL] Tried to access Steam interface SteamNetworkingMessages002 before SteamAPI_Init succeeded.
[S_API FAIL] Tried to access Steam interface SteamUtils010 before SteamAPI_Init succeeded.
Steps to reproduce:
- Create custom AMP Template.
- Upload Template to Github.
- Fetch Latest Repos.
- Create new Vein server.
- Initialize steamcmd download.
- Launch server.
Actions taken to resolve so far:
- Confirmed template successfully downloads and installs the folder structure and first launch creates new files/folders as well.
- Attempted to modify VeinServer.sh and log in anonymously before launching the server. Here’s a portion of my script:
# Ensure Steam is running
if ! pgrep -x "steam" > /dev/null; then
steam -silent &
sleep 10
fi
# Log into Steam anonymously
if ! steamcmd +login anonymous +quit; then
echo "Failed to log in to Steam anonymously."
exit 1
fi
- Double-checked KVP Configuration:
Meta.DisplayName=Vein
Meta.Description=Vein Dedicated Server
App.SteamUpdateAnonymousLogin=True
App.ExecutableLinux=2131400//Vein/Binaries/Linux/VeinServer-Linux-Test
App.EnvironmentVariables={"LD_LIBRARY_PATH": "{{$FullBaseDir}}linux64:{{$FullRootDir}}linux64:%LD_LIBRARY_PATH%"}
- Looked for additional logs to identify any other issues.
I would appreciate any guidance on how to resolve these API initialization issues or any other troubleshooting steps I may have overlooked. Thank you!
