Linux Dedicated Sevrer Core Dump

[Nuddelaug]

Hi to all

 

does any body experience the problem of a core dump on a linux dedicated server ? the server starts up runs for about a few hours 2-8 hours. Monitoring the In/Outbound traffic i can see if the server is still running. All i got after reconnecting the console is console log (terminalsize) and last line core dump. But there´s no core dump in the directory either in the ~/.jk2/ or ~/.jk2/base

directory.

 

I experience these problems on a PII 500 386Mb Ram with a 10Mbit Connect.

On a Hardware copied Machine these problems do not show up

different config change = set com_hunkmegs 128 changed from 64 but i applied these setting on the crashing server to .. no effect.

 

Config below :

// Server Config

set sv_hostname "-= Ganjastormtroopers.com =- v1.02"

set g_motd "Welcome stranger, be wise, be fast, dont make mistakes"

rconpassword "***********"

set sv_maxclients 16

set g_gametype 7

set g_weaponDisable 0

set g_duelWeaponDisable 0

set g_forceWeaponDisable 0

set g_forceBasedTeams 1

set g_inactivity 300

set g_maxForceRank 7

set g_maxHolocronCarry 3

set g_privateDuel 1

set g_saberLock 1

set g_frienldySaber 0

set g_dowarmup 1

set g_warmup 20

sv_maxRate 10000

set g_allowvote 1

set logfile 1

set g_logfile server.log

set timelimit 20

set capturelimit 20

set g_autoMapCycle 1

set g_teamForceBalance 1

sv_allowdownload 1

sv_pure 1

set sv_floodprotect 1

set g_friendlyFire 0

Set com_hunkmegs 128

sv_reconnectlimit 3

sv_zombietime 2

g_spskill 3

bot_enable 1

bot_minplayers 15

bot_fastchat 1

devmap ctf_imperial

 

thanks for any response

All *nix OS will produce a core-dump, if the process recieves a kill-signal of type 3....this has nothing to do with the game.

I just picked out a few things here. I can't say that any of them are the cause of your problem, but here goes:

 

Does your rconpassword work? I guess I'm kinda hooked on using set.

I don't believe that g_forceWeaponDisable is a valid cvar, but no harm-no foul

When "I" set g_inactivity to anything but 0, my server crashes. I use g_timeouttospec instead.

I think you need a set or seta in front of the next batch of cvars. I haven't played with the bots, so those may be ok. I'm not sure that g_spskill make any difference in a multiplayer game, but again, no harm-no foul.

You start off with devmap? I believe the purpose of that command is to enable the map with cheats on--or at least that's what it was in Q3. If that's not what you are trying to do, change that to just read "map ctf_imperial".

 

That's about all I could see. Good luck.

So if you send it a kill -9 will that still produce a core dump?

Hi Epidemic

 

no it doenst produce a core dump on any other action i take ...

 

it just happens like if someone crashes the server while playing ...

the event doesnt occure during map change it occures during running game.

I´ve seen the posted linux dedicated server 1.02b and updated the binarys right now ill see if it occures againg toniight ...

 

I´ll give the set command a try but i don´t think thats the problem cause

the other machine is running fine ....

 

Thanks for all replys

 

See ya

My linux server keeps crashing also. Core Dumps every 15 minn or so

Could you provide more information about your system and setup? Perhaps we could find a common issue and resolve this. Startup script/command line, server.cfg and basic os info would be fantastic.

Only a kill signal of 3 will produce a .core file.
