Random crashes

Chris-_- · **Author**

Sometimes my server just randomly crashes on mapchange, there is no mdmp file in, log files looks like any regular logfile except:

Quote:

L 01/07/2009 - 21:47

8: [SM] Native "IsClientInGame" reported: Client index 0 is invalid
L 01/07/2009 - 21:47

8: [SM] Debug mode is not enabled for "rtd.smx"
L 01/07/2009 - 21:47

8: [SM] To enable debug mode, edit plugin_settings.cfg, or type: sm plugins debug 24 on
L 01/07/2009 - 22:02:11: Error log file session closed.

Is there anyway i can try to debug this further ("sm plugins debug 24 on", will it help, or is that a non destructive error?), its really frustrating to see a server crash with a bunch of people when on :/

That's a non-destructive error.

Are you sure it's crashing? Does the server go back to the first map in the cycle, or does it continue to the next map? If it continues to the next map, it is probably the common bug with OB games (TF2, DoD:S) that hangs the server temporarily on map change.

You should upgrade SM while your at it. If you were on 1.1 you would see the full debug.

No its doesnt actually crash it just makes everyone hang, and it does change map.

EDIT: Fixed issue

Ya thats the map changing bug, it will say connection problem and it may change the map or it may take so long to respond that it kicks everyone. You need to run mapchooser.smx to run those plugins.

The map change hang is a known valve issue and there's nothing we can do =(
