[Private server] Continuous errors for Invader and Source Keeper



  • Running a fresh private server on Linux, installed from npm, my engine_runner1.log is being continually spammed with these messages:

    Invader error Error: Unknown module 'main'
        at Object.requireFn (<runtime>:20800:23)
        at Object.run (<runtime>:20761:60)
        at <runtime>:16001:22
    Source Keeper error Error: Unknown module 'main'
        at Object.requireFn (<runtime>:20800:23)
        at Object.run (<runtime>:20761:60)
        at <runtime>:16001:22
    

    I fired up the private server from within steam to see if it had the same problem and it does, although it's only logging messages for Invaders:

    Invader error Error: Unknown module 'main'
        at Object.requireFn (<isolated-vm>:20800:23)
        at Object.exports.run (<isolated-vm>:20761:60)
        at <isolated-vm>:16001:22

  • did you solve it?



  • I've seen this many times over the years but I have never managed to find out what causes it. A reinstall usually seems to fix it, but I wish I knew what the problem was.

    Once I got it working on my current server it hasn't done it again since so maybe it is a bad install issue.
