This problem is now solved in the latest TF2 update, please update your server.

Due to the latest TF2 update, random servers will crash instantly after being started up.
The relevant text in the Console would be this:

Code:

srcds_i486: tpp.c:63: __pthread_tpp_change_priority: Assertion `new_prio == -1 || (new_prio >= __sched_fifo_min_prio && new_prio <= __sched_fifo_max_prio)' failed.
./srcds_run: line 335: 335 Aborted $HL_CMD
Add "-debug" to the ./srcds_run command line to generate a debug.log to help with solving this problem
Wed Jan 27 22:59:05 EST 2010: Server restart in 10 seconds

The bug is inside Valve's code, various outsiders have reported this as well and we expect another update to fix this soon.
At this moment there is nothing to do but wait for their update unfortunately.

Please note this is not a problem on serverFFS's side, most of our TF2 servers updated without a problem but only a few ones show this problem.

A temperley way to fix this is: In your FTP navigate to "orangebox/bin" directory, And replace the .so files with http://www.dcsrvdls.com/other/bin.zip

Please note that customers can use the above solution at their own risk.
I have no way to verify whether this is a legit and stable fix so be sure to create backups.

Thank you nevertheless Adj011.
