    No that error is because he's trying to run 64bit starbound on a 32bit host OS, or vice versa. I did that misstake too.

    Hey man!
    I'm following your linux server guide since i've never used Linux and I accidentally purchased from a Linux only VPN company!
    I was wondering if you could help me out a bit!
    When I open my console I get this message: http://tinypic.com/r/29ylbiv/5

    And the next thing is, after I download the files for the Linux SteamCMD, i transfer the whole folder into my server and after that all I need to do is follow the steps you mentioned on the post?
    So right after I download SteamCMD and after the whole folder is already on my server all i need to do is execute the commands you've posted?
    Or is there something else I need to do before I execute those commands ?

    @Stanlee: His instructions include getting the right files into the right folder and executing them in the right order, just follow suit from step 1, looking at the terminal pic i got to say it looks like a plain installation error, try redownloading PuTTy(simple terminal client via SSH) and execute that, that worked for me with given tutorial

    @sovredcat : I can not tell you how much i appreciate what you did here, it helped me out a great deal since it was my first linux expierience, just wanted to give you my warmest regards.

    Thanks, I'll see if I can make it even more noob friendly. Admittedly I haven't spelled checked or followed my own tutorial to make sure everything is working :p - but it should!

    I've been editing "starbound.config" inside /home/steam/starbound/linux64 and it works.

    If you have problems starting the SteamCMD on a linux 64 bit because it says

    Code:
    ./starbound_server: 1: ./starbound_server:ELF: not found
    
    or similiar problems when runing ./starbound.sh


    Code:
    -FOR LINUX /UBUNTU-
    apt-get install lib32gcc1
    
    You should now be able to run SteamCMD

    I'm experiencing the same.. it's been running for 30 minutes and is now at 0.20%! The VPS is able to download up to 9MB/s from other servers, I was even able to test it while the steamcmd is running.. this is painfully slow. It seems to be literally running at 1-2 KB/s.

    Has anyone encountered the same issue and found a solution?

    Sometimes the steam servers can be under heavy load or the VPS just has a bad connection to the mirror you're downloading from.

    I have the same issue every patch despite having a 100mbit line, but it will pick up after a while. It's just the Steam servers being under heavy load I guess.

    Hi all,
    I have a VPS running on CentOS, and I'm having trouble downloading Starbound using SteamCMD
    After login and set up install dir, I enter "app_update 211820", then this prints around 60 times:

    App state (0x10102) reconfiguring, progress: 0.00 (0 / 0)

    Then, the following errors:

    Error! App '211820' state is 0x1 after update job.

    How should I do? Please help.

    I had to modify the directions to get it to work for me. I believe my error was a little different, but it may be the same issue.

    force_install_dir ./starbound didn't work for me.
    Instead:
    force_install_dir /home/steam/starbound (or whatever is your full path)
