Error Codes
SteamCMD
SteamCMD can sometimes output errors when something goes wrong. Sadly, Valve has never released an official list of what the error messages mean. Because of this, a lot of guesswork has been needed to figure it out. This page will highlight what we already know and info on researching what the error might mean in the hope that you can contribute to understanding SteamCMD errors.
SteamCMD uses hexadecimal numbers to give its current "state". Every time SteamCMD does something, it changes its state. When SteamCMD fails, it will output its hexadecimal state, for example 0x202.

SteamCMD Hex Codes
SteamCMD uses hex error codes such as 0x202 which can be converted into decimal 514. You can use a hex-to-decimal converter to do this. Using the table below you can work out the status messages. By doing a calculation. Find the highest number below the state 512 which is the first error. Then take the number away from the total 514-512=2 which gives you the last error. This can be done for any error
514-512-2=0

ulimit SteamCMD startup error
./steamcmd.sh: line 17: ulimit: open files: cannot modify limit: Operation not permitted
Some users may get a ulimit error (no permission/cannot open file) while SteamCMD is starting up. This error caused by a low setting of the -n parameter (number of file descriptors) of ulimit. Some servers forbid increasing ulimit values after startup (or beyond a limit set by root). This can be fixed by changing the file descriptor number ulimit:
ulimit -n 2048
