would anyone know where i can look to see why my server will crash at random times? it doesnt show in my server prompt and i have no idea why it crashs (sometimes it will run for days without crash) then randomly it would just crash i get a pop up saying "da da da has stoped responding" idk why xD any suggestions or help would greatly appriecaited
thanks
 
I probably know the problem.
Whenever someone step on a tp it crash, can be a random tp that you've forgot to change.

Lets say your teleport is at the position: x:1000 y:1000 y 7.
Then you maybe was confused or something so you made so the tp wents back to position 1000:1000:7.
So you run into the tp 100 million times a second.

Rep++ if helped.

PS: ask if anyone stept on a teleport the same moment.

Sincerely, Denix!
 
kk thanks for your reply, ill have to ask next time the server crashs, because thats very possible, and it makes sense (im running a download and run server) so who knows what bugs their are xD
 
server had just crashed, nothing in my server prompt, and iv got a anti nuke port blocker up and running to prevent ddos etc, and when i started the server i asked and went to every player online they were not near any teleportals or anything, any other suggestions?
 
If a server crashes without any error it can have alot reasons. It is hard to know the exact problem that is causing it. It can be something in the map, for example holes or stairs that make players step/relog on borders/walls, in mountains or in nothing. If this happens alot it can make a server crash. It can also be a bug in a script, for example some talkactions in crying damson servers made the server crash. Or items with time that don't transform in the right item. But which script it is, is hard to find out. You can try to ask the players about their actions before the server crashed. Unfortunaly, it can also be a problem in the source or if your computer can't handle the server anymore (if it is on its max of the ram for example).

its a brand new comp cost me 600+ usd x.x it should have plenty of ram xD i bought it just to run a ot, i mean the problem could be in the source, and i cant check the source. the ot i download is orginal raells frozen-hell server x.x and it didnt come with sorces >.< im hosting the server in usa but advertising in mexico....so asking the players is a communication problem. if it was a false talk action error it should come up in the server prompt, like the other action errors that occur, example: player tries to use upgrade cyrstal on them self and not item.

sometimes it can run for days no crash, and today already 3 crashes x.x idk what is going on.... >.< the players that are online during the time of the crash relog once i restart the server, and i immedatly tp to their area in ghost most and see whats around them, but a thought had just occured to me x.x when it crashes their is a roll back.....(last crash tho i had /saved the server 2 seconds before the crash)(and i had went around looking at players location and didnt see nothing out of the ordanary, just monsters and ground) no tp or holes.


still searching for a solution or another idea but thanks for your reply!
 
Well,

1.Maybe your computer consumed memory that it has to rest, because you don't got memory left, If thats the reason you should let it rest.

2.Maybe a their DDoS your server
 
i have a anti nuke port blocker for ddos xD, and after server crashes, i can restart server and let it run for days, or untill server crashs again (when i had first started it it ran for 2 weeks+ no crash) i do not think its my rem.
 
The talkactions in the crying damson servers made the server crash without errors, so it's possible. But it looks like (if the problem is in a script), that it is a script that is not often used or is using time. So you can try think of a script that you have in your server that people sometimes not use for days. Also a commen source bug is when the map gets updated with new areas, the server crashes. But this will only happen when someone enters to place for the first time.
 
seeing as the orginal owner had mixed up almost every script (atleast the scripts for events donor items and event room) (those the ones i have been looking at) as well as some dont work.. it could very well be a player command crashing the server ill test it out with the command list provided in game to see if i can crash the server xD otherwise, i have no idea where to look for barely used scripts (im barely getting by fixing the event scripts in game.....INSANELY HARD!!!!) but none the less fixed capture the flag....and the event room.


edit:

all player commands seem to be working, and if they dont the server doesnt crash.



Edit:
at any added new area's have worked so far xD
