[Open] LinxDedServFix
 

Your server crashing after a map has been played is generally caused by a bug related to emitters, of all things.

This should fix, assuming this is a linux server (link is at the end of the thread:)

incl. u, ucl & txt

!OOPS!


Dont use it @ DNW Servers.

Because we use 3369.3 LinuxPatch!

I wasn't joking, it's supposed to fix the issue. I didn't link to the file directly so you could read through the thread for an explanation.

Are you sure that's the problem, Donzi? 'Can't resolve package name' usually means either the file is missing or misspelled in the ini, and from what I see there, the error seems to indicating a problem with the TAM mod. Also the emitter fix isn't in the command line either, but you might have set it up as a server actor (which I can confirm does work on my server.) Also, I see two questions marks after 3spnv3141.TeamArenaMaster in the command line instead of just one. I don't know if that will cause a problem or not.

Additionally, there's a limit to how much text can be in the map vote config; going over that amount will also cause a crash, and IIRC, it looks similar to that. (There's a way around that, by using Druid Mutator to house your mutator configurations in a separate ini, so that the only mutator on your command line is DM.u. It doesn't seem to be on this site so I'll upload it.)

What I would do just to be sure is try booting up a server with just the emitter fix running as a mutator first and as a server actor second. Also confirm that it is correctly listed in the server packages list and uploaded into the system directory. It's a lot easier to tell if you don't have a ton of other mods running at the same time on the command line. If it does boot, try running a map that is known to have the emitter bug, like DM-TheOnion or DM-Waisten (the original versions, not DM-TheOnion-LE or DM-Waisten-Fix.)

EDIT: Actually you do have Druid Mutator. Here's a link: http://www.utzone.de/forum/downloads...o=file&id=1017

Had cut the "LinxDedServFix" Discussion into another Thread


I must test this later on our servers, because we run 1 Masterserver with Symlinks to others

brb

Fresh Server installation, naked
All Files are Symlinks, only ini and ucl are real
Uploaded ony 2 Files, LinxDedServFix.ucl & LinxDedServFix.u



If we add "LinxDedServFix" as an Serveractor, the Server crashes with this:
ini:


BUT, removed as an Actor, add it as a Mutator, it works

So, nothing todo with textlength of vote/comandline or anything else
:confused::confused::confused:

Hmm, in the first code block, I don't see ServerPackages=LinxDedServFix anywhere. It shouldn't need it as a server actor, but it wouldn't hurt to check.

Since it is booting with the mutator option, did you test one of those maps I mentioned to see if the server still crashes after playing them and then voting for a new map?

If the server still crashes after those two maps, then it is useless for DNW servers even if it does "work."

ServerPackages ?????

ServerActor ????


really... my fault that i used it as an actor?

//Edit

Ill upload the maps, moment

Ok, i think we need no ServerPackages or Serveractor.

I started the server with this:
*cut*
Mapswitch to Waisten and after this to Antalus
or jefe?

It does work as a server actor on my server, no idea why not here.

Looks like it's working properly. Normally Waisten will cause the server to crash after it has been played, so it would have rebooted to DM-1on1-Spirit.

One last thing to check would be if Waisten does indeed force a crash on your server without the emitter fix mutator.
