Server doesnt respond after startup

[SaltyMoistCrust]

Im on a linux machine running a 7dtd dedicated server. (steamCMD)
Clean alpha 19 setup.
After starting the server i get the following control panel output:

> 2020-09-19T11:57:58 1.138 INF Awake done in 1083 ms
> Loading Biome Stamp took 96.92 seconds
> 2020-09-19T11:59:36 99.395 INF [GSM] GameSparks Connected

> Loading Stamp took 0.051 seconds
> Loading Stamp took 0.04 seconds
> Loading Stamp took 0.043 seconds
> Loading Stamp took 0.042 seconds


After that i dont get any response from the server.
htop tells me that the process is still using a lot of the CPU.
startup args:
-logfile <mypath> -quit -batchmode -nographics -dedicated -configfile=serverconfig.xml

Is the server already generating the map? (Its now been running for 30mins without a sign of life)

PS: now i got
 

mmap(PROT_NONE) failed
Aborted


In my shell and the server stopped...

Generating a map may take a while, even more than 30 minutes and the server doesn't give a sign of life in this time, besids cpu usage.

On our server with a phenom x6 it took almost two hours to generate the map.

mmap(PROT_NONE) failed
Aborted

mmap might mean you ran out of RAM. Map generation also uses a high amount of RAM.

What's your server's specs?

Under Linux also make sure the server has write-access to where the generated files are put.

32 Gigs RAM
i7 4790 (4 core / 8 threads @ 3.80 Ghz)
2 x 512Gb SSD in raid mode
1Gbit up/down link

Dedicated machine. No other stuff is running besides docker, mongoDB, mysql, postgreSQL and redis.
I created a new user for steam applications and he has read/write/execute perms in the 7dtd dir.
I ran the server with a pre-generated map and it worked fine. So it could be a problem with the generation.
It only took 7 gigs max while starting.

However my server is running now so its fine.
