Curious error 0x202 of SteamCMD v1658944597 about steamcmd

[CM2Walki]

Did you execute the steamcmd.sh as user root by any chance? That usually leads to weird behavior like this for me.

EDIT: Also could you drop in the command you executed?

[jalho]

I ran a bash script as steam that ran the steamcmd.sh.

Dockerfile:

FROM cm2network/steamcmd:root

# install dependencies:
# at least sqlite3 seem to be required by `RustDedicated` as of Jul 2022
# TODO: add the rest of the dependencies, if any!
RUN apt-get update; \
    apt-get upgrade -y \
    && apt-get install -y sqlite3

# as of Jul 2022 the base image comes with user `steam`
USER steam
COPY fetch-server-and-start.sh /home/steam/
WORKDIR /home/steam

Commands:

$ docker build --tag rust-server . && docker run -ti rust-server /bin/bash
steam@3a3e34cce070:~$ whoami
steam
steam@3a3e34cce070:~$ bash fetch-server-and-start.sh
Fetching the Rust server with SteamCMD...

 Update state (0x3) reconfiguring, progress: 0.00 (0 / 0)
Error! App '258550' state is 0x202 after update job.
Fetching with SteamCMD done.

where fetch-server-and-start.sh is:

#!/bin/bash

echo "Fetching the Rust server with SteamCMD..."
/home/steam/steamcmd/steamcmd.sh +force_install_dir /home/steam/rust-server +login anonymous +app_update 258550 +quit
echo "Fetching with SteamCMD done."

These exact steps reproduce the issue; works fine on one of my machines but not on the other one.
