Fistful of Frags Application Error A Fault is Preventing the Application From Starting

OS Name/Version: Elementary OS 8

Product Name/Version: AMP Phobos v2.6.0.6

Problem Description: Trying to setup a server for Fistful of Frags. It appears as though it gets installed but it won’t start. I get an application error - a fault is preventing the application from starting. Manage the instance to examine the logs. I’ve read through the logs and, while I can understand some aspects of it, I’m not sure exactly what to take away from it.

Steps to reproduce:

  • Create Instance
  • Pick Fistful of Frags
  • Create Instance

Actions taken to resolve so far: I’ve searched both here and on google, but I’m not finding anything related specifically to FoF. I’ve stopped and started the instance to no avail. I have also deleted and recreated the instance.

The srcds module is currently broken.

A generic module version of FOF will be available very soon.
