[Valve Error] Invalid Steam key size
major:
Make sure you installed the little Bin Trick:
www.lodle.net/bin.zip
Goes into /orangebox/bin folder on the server.
Geko010:
That's right, I forgot what my original error was.
I followed the instructions to use GCFScape and manually extract the files to fix Invalid Steam Key Size the first time around. I used lodle's downloads just now, to see if it would fix No Steam Logon but it doesn't look like it.
This was my sequence of events:
* downloaded hldsupdatetool
* hldsupdatetool -command update -game tf -dir c:\server to install TF2
* downloaded and extracted GES Server 3.0beta to c:\server\orangebox
* Got the errors where it wouldn't load objects
* applied 3.0 beta patch to c:\server\orangebox\gesource
* Invalid Steam key size error
* Used GCFScape to manually extract the dll's and apply them to c:\server\orangebox\bin
* No Steam Logon
I'm going to install it on my linux box and see if I can replicate this or not. Thank you to all who replied, they were great suggestions! This forum has been awesome! :D

I would love to create my own weapon sets eventually, but automatics has been a fun testing set so far. DSKFTW!
Sometimes I switch to KLOBBS! when I'm fealing mean. Does that make me a bad person? :P

Well, my linux server is giving the same result.
If anyone wants to test it, try:
jmedia.homelinux.net
76.22.48.168 (ip is variable, the link auto updates)

Has Valve adressed this issue at all by the way? Is there any news? I can't find any from Valve's part.

No its still all quiet on the valve front on this issue.
@Geko010 i have been connected to your server for a while now still have not been kicked with the error yet.
EDIT:
I was connected to your server for almost an hour never kicked with the error.
