To start off this isn't my server, it's my friends and I'm helping him. He doesn't know anything about Amxx and asked me so I decided to help. I installed a few plugins for him and noticed some of them weren't working. I went into modules.ini and noticed engine wasn't running. When I activated and changed the map the server froze, and wouldn't start back up until I deactivated it again. When I started helping him with the server Amxx was already installed. I overwirtten almost everything from a clean install (haven't overwritten plugins, custom, and scripting though). This is what I've gathered from the host's website.

Lightening fast connection on OC192 connected to the Internet through 14 Gigabit Ethernet links from six separate backbone providers, with Dual xeon processers, 2.6 GHZ, 2 gig, ram, Scsi hard drive machines in Eastern, Central or Pacific time zones to assure you and your buddies can smoke each other in real time and with minimal lag.
If you need any other information just ask. Thanks in advance. Forgot to mention this is a Condition Zero server.


Hmmm. I just typed amx_modules and this is what I got...

name version author
Counter-Strike 0.16 ST AMX Mod X Dev Team
Fun 0.16 AMX Mod X Dev Team
CS Stats 0.16 AMX Mod X Dev Te

Shouldn't amxx be in there too???

something is crashing my server as well...and I think it's amxx specifically. Originally I had retail installed set up at dedicated server. I had both amx (not amxx) and admin mod running along with a plathora of mods. ONly problems I had noticed was lag spikes. I contributed this to mods and the fact it was retail.

So I found HLserver and installed that along with updates, decided I had to many admin type programs running so I installed amxx and tossed out admin mod and amx. ever since that...things have been very shaky to say the least. The server crashes spontaniously and I think it has to do with the engine module. I COULD be wrong as I don't know enough about the mods but I can't trace it to any specific mod and engine module was the last thing I enabled for some plugins that required it before the server became unstable. Log files are NOT picking up the error. The server just crashes without any chance of knowing what the problem is.

I thought it could have been deagles mapchanger...but I still seem to crash. here are my plugins:

Well, I have removed every possable plugin except amxx specifically. Engine module is off, stats.logging off, and all my other mods are off. Server crashes when ever it feels like it. If no one is on, it stays up indef, but i have had up to 16 players on at a time and server was running strong. Then crash. My friend has been on the server ever time it crashes and he said it's always right when he is getting ready to shoot someone. There is NO info in ANY logs at all.

Windows gives me an error but only says something caused a problem in HDLS.exe blah blah. No specific info. I need help as to what the cause is. I didn't have any problems with AMX or Admin Mod. I REALLY do not want to change back to either one of them but if I can't figure this out I may have to.

yeah same here, my cs name is 3nSanE, i run a cs server, using the HLServer app provided by steam. After installation of amxx i have noticed that the server crashed randomly at any time. With a windows error saying "windows must close hlds" blah blah. At first i thought i had too many mods on so i took HLG off of my server, and still it crashes. There is nothing in the logs to say why. Its VERY annoying. Im gonna test a theory, im going to take off engine module because its possible thats why its doing it. But thats just a theory. Im still using amxx 0.16 and haven't upgraded yet and probably wont until its all REALLY together and ready for play (without all the beta test and so many errors).

; AMX Mod X plugins

admin.amx
admincmd.amx
adminhelp.amx
adminslots.amx
menufront.amx
cmdmenu.amx
plmenu.amx
telemenu.amx
mapsmenu.amx
antiflood.amx
adminchat.amx
adminvote.amx
adminchat.amx
adminvote.amx
nextmap.amx
timeleft.amx
mapchooser.amx

adminlisten.amx
amx_atac.amx
amx_atac_cfg.amx
amx_chicken.amx
amx_ejl_dice.amx
amx_blind.amx

; AMX Mod X Modules; You can specify both linux & win32 modules here

; Fun - This has extra functions for "extra" stuff
fun_amx.dll

; Engine - This has engine functions core to half-life
engine_amx.dll

; Counter-Strike - This adds functions specific to Counter-Strike
cstrike_amx.dll

; CS Stats - This adds functionality for CS statistical information
csstats_amx.dll

any help with this problem would be VERY much appreciated, im sick of my server crashing when i have a full house.

thank you

3nSanE
