Native Linux server (with management scripts)

Regarding the second part: Were you trying to run the "rendermap" command at that time?

@first one: Might just as well be related to the max open files too. Looks like the engine is often keeping a lot of files opened and AFAIK net sockets are counted in too...

Can't say for sure though. You might try increasing the files limit as shown by qriff here.

 
Ok thanks I'll try it as soon as I'm back, hope it will work.

I'm not on a wrong version though right? Cause I couldn't find the release notes for v52 yet :D

No I wasn't trying to run the command I just noticed the server wasn't running right so I checked the logs and found the exception.

Well, I hope this isn't a major problem for now ... but I'll probably have to further improve the rendering stuff so there are less file accesses.

v52 probably was a bump to the server mod. I should really get that done differently, it's kinda annoying how it works right now ;)

 
As described in that post I edited the file and added the entries:

I even rebooted after that but no luck im afraid :(

Then a player tried to join which failed => 2014.09.04 17:45:04: ServicesGameServer not initialzed!

I found a few more things, though some of them were occuring before that error:

I dont think the last messages are interesting though. Weirdly enough my other Instance which is Navezgane based with close to 0 players is still running and can be restarted..

Any more ideas :/ ?

 
Ok so, this deserves a seperate post :D . I finally got it working again!

It would seem as though the Region folder had too many files in it...

I deleted all the regions outside of those that players had keystoned and then the server just started up again...

So it would seem that once the region folder gets too large the server will just crash? Anyone else experience something like this? FYI my region folder was about 6.7GB.

 
Ah, good to know this was causing problems. I have heard of larger region folders (12 GiB) but they were running the Windows build ;)

The other "errors" are ok.

Alpha 9.2

Currently I'm missing the new engine files but that will most likely be fixed during the evening (CEST). So like in 4hrs probably.

 
Ok, version 53 seems to be ok.

DO NOT FORGET TO READ THE RELEASE NOTES OF THE SCRIPTS!

 
Hello friend, updated the game and the script(v53), but now when I type "sudo 7dtd.sh start MyInstances" I get the following error message: Failed!

 
Just quoting myself this time:

DO NOT FORGET TO READ THE RELEASE NOTES OF THE SCRIPTS!

If it hadn't been just one post above yours it would be different ... but I'm not writing all this stuff for fun :(

 
Any news yet for Dedicated server on Windows ? Kinda sad....

o.O

What's that got to do with Linux? Also, what news would you expect? Dedi on Windows has been officially there since 7.8 (iirc) ...

 
"DO NOT FORGET TO READ THE RELEASE NOTES OF THE SCRIPTS!"

you mean this....

Note: This updated only script files. If the global config file

/etc/7dtd.conf contains changes for the newer version or there

were new files added to the user folder /home/sdtd those changes

have not been applied!
Click to expand...
Or something else.. either way its not very clear what users should be paying attention too exactly or where these notes can be found.

 
Nope, I was talking about this part which points you to the release notes:

Code: 
Please check the release notes before continuing:
 https://7dtd.illy.bz/wiki/Release%20Notes
;)

(And I think it's actually really clearly said there what and where ;) Not reading command output doesn't mean there is none or that it wouldn't contain anything useful)

Also release notes for a software product can be found on the product's website most of the time so that would be a good place to start.

Not meant to be harsh or anything but I just don't like documenting all that stuff and trying to get the commands to point you at what to do for people not even reading it. That's just making me having to repeat instructions over and over again and you (as in "the user") having to wait for my response on questions. That's kinda frustrating :(
