assert in tier1/fileio.cpp (2519)

[sorokin]

I have a few asserts in stderr:

/home/buildbot/buildslave_steam/steam_rel_client_ubuntu12_linux/build/src/tier1/../tier1/fileio.cpp (2519) : Assertion Failed: Failed to determine free disk space for /mnt/a/Steam/steamapps/common/Surgeon Simulator 2013, error 2 Assert( Assertion Failed: Failed to determine free disk space for /mnt/a/Steam/steamapps/common/Surgeon Simulator 2013, error 2 ):/home/buildbot/buildslave_steam/steam_rel_client_ubuntu12_linux/build/src/tier1/../tier1/fileio.cpp:2519 /home/buildbot/buildslave_steam/steam_rel_client_ubuntu12_linux/build/src/tier1/../tier1/fileio.cpp (2519) : Assertion Failed: Failed to determine free disk space for /mnt/a/Steam/steamapps/common/Kairo, error 2 /home/buildbot/buildslave_steam/steam_rel_client_ubuntu12_linux/build/src/tier1/../tier1/fileio.cpp (2519) : Assertion Failed: Failed to determine free disk space for /mnt/a/Steam/steamapps/common/Guns of Icarus Online, error 2

error 2 is ENOENT. The problem is that path should be '/mnt/a/Steam/SteamApps/common/', not '/mnt/a/Steam/steamapps/common/'.

Probably because of that updates of games do not work. Steam prints that update is 'Paused' and does not update anything.

You've symlinked to your Steam directory or something like that? It seems like you're hitting the same thing as #2409 .

Yes it's true. I symlinked steam to /mnt/a/Steam:

ivan@liberty:~/.steam$ LANG=en_US ls -l total 24 lrwxrwxrwx 1 ivan ivan 23 May 9 12:51 bin -> /home/ivan/.steam/bin32 lrwxrwxrwx 1 ivan ivan 24 May 9 12:51 bin32 -> /mnt/a/Steam/ubuntu12_32 lrwxrwxrwx 1 ivan ivan 24 May 9 12:51 bin64 -> /mnt/a/Steam/ubuntu12_64 -rw-rw-r-- 1 ivan ivan 7518 May 9 12:51 registry.vdf lrwxrwxrwx 1 ivan ivan 12 May 9 12:51 root -> /mnt/a/Steam lrwxrwxrwx 1 ivan ivan 20 May 9 12:51 sdk32 -> /mnt/a/Steam/linux32 lrwxrwxrwx 1 ivan ivan 20 May 9 12:51 sdk64 -> /mnt/a/Steam/linux64 lrwxrwxrwx 1 ivan ivan 12 May 9 12:51 steam -> /mnt/a/Steam -rw-rw-r-- 1 ivan ivan 5 May 9 12:51 steam.pid prw------- 1 ivan ivan 0 May 9 12:51 steam.pipe -rwxrwxr-x 1 ivan ivan 8860 Feb 9 02:14 steam_install_agreement.txt

We'll need to try and repro here.

As a workaround I symlinked steamapps to SteamApps.

Hi,

There's a few issues open for this, but this seemed to have been updated the most recently, so I'm adding my report here.

I just hit this aswell, except I'm running a UDF formatted file system and have a separate steam folder setup there under /data/Linux/Steam where the issue is. It occurs specifically when downloading 'Worms Reloaded', but I just tried 'VVVVVV' on the same partition and that worked fine, so I'm at a loss as to why this game is being treated differently. It gets to 99% done and then pauses the download.

I switched mirrors, verified game cache, restarted the downloaded, and finally restarted Steam from command line to get more info out of the problem and I found this:

/home/buildbot/buildslave_steam/steam_rel_client_ubuntu12_linux/build/src/tier1/../tier1/fileio.cpp (2822) : Assertion Failed: Failed to determine free disk space for /data/Linux/Steam/steamapps/common/Worms Reloaded, error 2

Finished uploading minidump (out-of-process): success = no

I just tried symlinking 'steamapps' -> 'SteamApps' in that directory, but it still fails - as the steamapps/common directory doesn't contain "Worms Reloaded". I'll try installing it to my /home (btrfs) partition next, but it'll take me a while to download it. I'll update this later if it works.

Edit: BTW I think I have a crash dump that uploaded successfully, hopefully of the same thing:

Edit 2: The worms reloaded download to my main steam directory under /home worked fine.

I had a similar issue while pausing my installing of Frozen Cortex (app 237350). I was installing to a separate library located on a different disk (/mnt/steam/steamapps/). Resuming the download caused everything to complete fine.

$ cat /proc/mounts
/dev/sdb1 /mnt/steam ext4 rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,data=ordered 0 0

Closing in favor of #2409.
