I've tried various changes, but also without.

What changes? Have done anything to the port?

Currently not, but I have one laying around.

To what is the Game File path set?

Are the game files split across multiple disks?

I didn't touch the ports (27015) or the paths. Should I?

 

I tried validate installation and different game parameters.

SteamCMD: /mnt/user/appdata/steamcmd

ServerFiles: /mnt/disk1/appdata/garrysmod

 

I only have one disk and a paraty drive

Just now, ra4e1 said:

No, of course not!

 

I now tried it now on my own and it works flawlessly:

 

...and here is the log: garrysmod.txt

 

Please keep in mind, I didn't touch a single thing in the container template and it worked right OOB.

 

On what Unraid version are you?

[ich777]

Please turn off validation, validation will cause a longer start because it validates the files on every start from the game.

 

I've now also pushed a update to the container, only a modernization and update thing.

(the above test was with the old version that you are running, the new container also runs fine)

 

Is the container on the same sub net as you local computer?

Yes

6.9.2

 

I will try the updated version

[ich777]

6.9.2

Then it should work right OOB like it did in my case.

So everything is working again for you?

What CMD files are you talking about?

 

Do you changed anything within steamcmd.sh?

Yes everything is fine, i had a faulty stick of 16gb ddr4 and it made my system wonky af.. 

 

faulty ram feels like any hardware fault known to mankind at once, i borked up alot on my unraid Server until i pinned down that faulty Stick. 
 

i deleted steam cmd manualy and reinstalled Valheim that installed cmd fresh and voila all good now.

Ok now there is a new problem:

I googled "GMod Segmentation fault and it seems like I am running out of Memory...

 

Well I thought 8 gb could run at least a teamspeak and a gmod server

 

Is there any workaround for that problem or do I just need to buy more RAM?

 

Only Teamspeak is running on the screenshot

You are definetely running not out of RAM…

The container doesn‘t need that much RAM.

 

can you please post a screenshot from your entire Docker template?

[ra4e1]

[ich777]

@ra4e1 I would stromgly recommend that you start over.

delete the container, selete the garrysmod folder in you appdata directory and pull a fresh copy from the CA App.

[ra4e1]

I deleted the container, the garrysmod folder and the steamcmd folder and did a fresh install, but same problem again:

The CSGO server works just fine

Ok, I restarted the Unraid and reinstalled again and now we are here:

What CPU are you using? Maybe a pretty old one that don't support AVX or anything like that? I tried it now on a Unassigned Device formatted with XFS because I had in mind that maybe the filesystem is the cause of the issue but that's also working fine, log is as always here: garrysmod.txt

 

As you can see the container needs only about ~800MB of RAM:

[ra4e1]

It's the i7-2600

Looks like I forgot about this for a long time...

 

I actually stopped creating containers for games that I personally don't own because giving support for such containers is a real nightmare for me.

Understandable, what about a base template of the steam server? something that can just have the relevant details and an upload for icons, config, etc..? I would think you have one of those kicking around to work from

You can always start with the CS:Source or CS:GO template as long as it uses srcds_run as the start command.

I've thought long time about a Docker image with a variable as a start command but I've never made one because this can and will definitely give me some serious headaches if it's configured wrong...

I think it's probably caused by your CPU would be really great if someone else with the same or a slightly newer CPU can test this.

Can you maybe try to add a Cache drive to your system if you have one lying around and try if you can get it to run with a Cache drive.

I really can't think of anything else than a CPU issue, similar issues where reported with Satisfactory on older AMD chips because they don't support AVX2 and since GarrysMod is a heavily CPU bound game that's my best guess that they've changed something that also needs newer instruction sets.

@bonienl do you have a clue why this happens? It seems like the container restarts but it doesn't restart, see this post:

 

@gunnarh does this also happen when no one plays on the container? Is this maybe caused when someone connects to the Valheim server? How often do you get this message? Are you sure that the container is running and you actually can connect to the game server?

Hi,

 

This run when the server are empty and when i playing.  This happens every 60 second.

 Can you try to turn off the Valheim container and see if the same happens?

I can't reproduce this on my server.

[ra1k_0]

Hi guys, is the Container Variable: UPDATE_CHECK available for Satisfactory like it is for Valheim?

[ich777]

Nope, this variable is really "unstable/unreliable" sometimes and your IP can be blacklisted from Steam if you do too many requests on their API.

 

...not to mention if you are on a unstable branch this can get pretty complicated quick.

I tried to install a gmod server (without docker) on a fresh Ubuntu server vm. Same CPU, same Unraid Server. It's worked out flawlessly. Is that a proof for the CPU?

[ich777]

No, definitely not because if you do a Host pass through it see the same CPU.

 

Maybe it's really related to the filesystem, I can't tell for sure because it works flawlessly on my system... And I've now also tried it on my test system:

 

 

This is my test server with the container running, as you can see my test server also has 8GB of RAM installed and it works also flawlessly.

The only difference is that I've installed the game to a BTRFS Cache drive, I really can't tell why it won't work on your system.

Here is the log from my test server: garrysmod.txt
