Did you notice this bit of the error?

“This is a Steam authentication failure, but you are running Steam and it is signed in. The server owner can find more information in their server console.”

The seems to indicate that the problem is the server, not your game client. The server needs to be running with the Steam webapi defined in the server.cfg.
