If you launch the srcds_run client (which then launches srcds_linux binary) in a failing environment, it will print

steamlug@PiNHEAD:~/steamcmd/L4D2$ ./srcds_run -debug
WARNING: No map specified! Defaulting to c1m1_hotel

Server will auto-restart if there is a crash.

2. Run vconfig to specify which game you're working on.
3. Add -game <path> on the command line where <path> is the directory that gameinfo.txt is in.

As you can see, the output links to valve-erc.com which doesn't look like it's affiliated with Valve, unless they've started venturing into domain sniping..

Let me know if I need to add any additional information. In the meantime, can someone provide me with a working link?

that url was valid, it was a community maintained host for srcds, but it looks like it is dead now. We will update/remove it, thanks.
