Hello, survivors.

I'm trying to create a new public server for people to play, and after nearly 48 hours of a non-stopping game server running, it went down.

The last lines in the log files are the following:

I don't know what has happened precisely. Any clarification is welcome.

48 hours without shutting down?  That's not something you want to do.

If you're running Windows, you should be restarting every 8-12 hours. Vanilla with supported player count will stay up longer without issues. Modded or unsupported player counts need to decrease that.

If you're on Linux, you can go 24 hours. A heavy overhaul modded server can do about 12-16 hours.

Yes, I'm aware the server needs a periodic restart. Clean the memory, backup everything, rotate the logs, etc. Basic administration stuff.

However, I was testing the server's stability: how much time it can run without restarting. And, as we can see, there's something in the code causing a fatal error. I think this could point to a potential bug the developers should fix.

I answered this above. In order to give you more specific information I'd need more details on your server.

Then you should submit a proper bug report in the correct location.

Will do.
