So i have been having an issue running the steam linux version of terraria. When i launch the game it either crashes and closes (usualy in the steam logs a SIGSEGV is called) or the came just crashes, turning into a zombie process (Usualy SIGABRT called).

What have i done to try and resolve this?

1. Verify Terraria files
2. check permissions in ~/.local/share/Terraria
3. rename the config.json to config.json.bak instead of deleting it outright
4. opening a terminal and running the executables from the command line to get a readout of what is going on in the back-end
5. throwing the game at gdb to debug the log

Things not done yet
1. run a strace
2. post the issue with logs in the forums (oh wait this should be done now!)

Hopefully the logs attached will be of some use. The Terraria.gdb.log contains both the gdb output and backtraces as well as the output from the steam console. Also attached are the Terraria crash logs populated in the game directory.

Well i got Terraria to launch via a terminal using <Terraria_Install_Directory_Tree_Steam>/Terraria

Sadly when i set out to do multiplayer and host i get the same error message with TerrariaServer.

When i exit out and start up TerrariaServer on it's own it will randomly crash with the same errors as my logs above.

When it does work then i cant get into the main terraria game.

Though one consolation is that i am not alone in this endevour per this post --> Linux - Launching the game occasionally doesn't work

Next is to execute a strace to figure out what the eff is going on.

Many hours later:

Holy freaking moon lord. Terraria did a doublecrash on my HP workstation and would not die with a kill -9 or kill -15. Log into my thinkpad L440 and steam starts freaking out about terraria still running elsewhere and wont let me log in sending me into a login loop on all my machine that have steam running at the moment.

Still i did get a Strace log on the workstation. Also double the crash is double the fun. . . wait isnt that dwarf fortress?

See Attached Logs for more.

Edit some time later after finding more logs.
