SteamCMD missing srcds_run, cannot uninstall, cannot move
I got really ♥♥♥♥ed off trying to set up CSGO and L4D2 dedicated servers.

On CSGO i am missing srcds_run script. There is just .exe and it looks like Windows version.

Also, is there any civilized way of uninstalling an app from steamcmd ("app_uninstall???") or moving it's lovation?

As I said, my patience run out and I wrote this: http://zelcs.com (first article)

It's really strange, I downloaded left4dead2 dedicated server tonight on debian 7 and it works great. I also have a csgo dedicated server and they both have the srcds_run file.

app ids : L4D2_DS : 222860 and CSGO_DS : 740

using steamcmd : go in your steamcmd.sh folder then type :
./steamcmd.sh

when the steam prompt appears : login anonymous
force_install_dir /full/path/to/l4d2-ds
app_update 222860 validate

Same thing applies for csgo. I used those links to help me :

I hope this will help you ^^

I used exactly the same commands and, of course, installed 32bit libs, cause I am running 64bit Centos 6.5 in VirtualBox. VirtualBox host is Windows 7 at the moment, but that shouldn't make any difference.

Only difference was that i logged in as "riils" rather than "anonymous". That, again, shouldn't make a difference, should it?

I have "srcds_run" for L4D2 server, but I don't for CSGO. L4D2 I accidentaly installed in default path and it's folder name is a horrible "Left 4 Dead 2 Dedicated Server" which is a pain to navigate to in console.

How do I move it to different path? Is there a SteamCMD command for this?

You could try downloading it by logging in anonymous but if it downloaded by logging in your account it shouldn't make a difference as you said before but you could try downloading it again by logging in anonymous.

For the l4d2 server, if the folder where your server is stored is named Left 4 Dead 2 Dedicated Server you could try to rename it by doing this :

with relative path :
mv old-folder-name new-folder-name

with absolute path
mv /path/to/old /path/to/new

Problem solved.

I logged in as anonymous and installed in default directory.

I fixed the inconvenient (long) path problem by creating convinient symlinks.
