Hi,

 

for some it should be possible to workaround this with a ext3 file system on a file, e.g.  (as root)

 

1)

dd if=/dev/zero of=/home/steam/.klei/DoNotStarveTogether_dst-fs-bug.ext3 bs=1048576 count=10000

 

2)

mkfs -t ext3 /home/steam/.klei/DoNotStarveTogether_dst-fs-bug.ext3

 

3)

mkdir /home/steam/.klei/DoNotStarveTogether_dst-fs-bug

 

3)

mount /home/steam/.klei/DoNotStarveTogether_dst-fs-bug.ext3 /home/steam/.klei/DoNotStarveTogether_dst-fs-bug

 

and then start with the steam user the server with the additional option

 

-conf_dir DoNotStarveTogether_dst-fs-bug

 

. Does not work for me, because my hoster does not support loopback device kernel module (or fuse kernel module), so the mount fails with

 

mount: Could not find any loop device. Maybe this kernel does not know
       about the loop device? (If so, recompile or `modprobe loop'.)

 

, so I cannot verify this ... . Maybe someone else may try ...

 

Bye,
