There is linux "sv_lan 1" CS-1.6 FUN server with small aim, fy ~50 maps.
At any time of the game server automatically reboots, players go in time out and disconnect with msg "coonection to server timed out".*
When this happens server logs just drops, like this:
L 03/21/2009 - 12:18:01: "KiLLeR <28><STEAM><TERRORIST>" killed "L.!.M<20 ............. and the log ends...

I can't catch any error, because logs are empty(no errors). AMXX logs is emty too(no errors).

Server using metamod 1.19 & amxx 1.8.1 addons only. AMXX with standart plugins. NO anticheats, custom plugins & other stupid stuff.

Why is this happening? This may depend on maps?
I replaced maps on which on which such reboot occurs, but no result, reboots still occurs. Reboot can be absolutely any time when playing...

Who can help or suggest, please!!1

p.s. BAD ENGLISH))

if you can see the master console, then when it all goes bad it should show a line saying

FATAL ERROR: (then some mombo jumbo that will tell you whats wrong)

it will be very obvious if you can see the master console at the time of the error

as for it not logging, maybe you didnt put the -debug command at the end of ./hlds_run......

Does the game server reboot or does the computer reboot? I'm not an expert but I think if the actual computer rebooted you would get that situation with the logs.

Thanks for the replies.
Reboot game server only, no computer. There is 4 game servers on this machine. All 4 servers from a single filling with the same build. Other public servers with maps like dust2/train doesn't self reboot. So I thought about the maps.....

I tried to add -debug at the end of ./hlds_run, but i couldn't understand what happened after this. debug.log and .pid files (or something ) appeared in server dir, they consisted of an random set of digits - like 5743, 6896...
I just didn't know what to do with this

I saw in hlsw console error sometime.
"FATAL ERROR: EMIT_SOUND: volume ABRACADABRA..."
After googling this, i read about that this may be happen when a lot of glass broken on the map. So i removed some maps contain glass objects... I didn't see this error anymore after that. And didn't see any errors at all.*
But random reboot continues

Can you post plugins list of your servers with that random crash problem?

WOW! Found a error msg in amxx log today!*
L 03/25/2009 - 20:576: Info (map "3d_aim_dust2") (file "addons/amxmodx/logs/error_20090325.log")
L 03/25/2009 - 20:576: Invalid CVAR pointer


What is "Invalid CVAR pointer"? Maybe that influence random reboots?
