server kills itself after time

Post by syntax »

Code: Select all

[0] Nobody there. Taking a nap...
[0] Timestamp: 2005/12/07 23:39:00
[17] Killing user 17, ping 10.
and then suddenly it stops always, the server stays up for about a day, it runs perfectly during that time, when playing and not playing etc etc...

but after a day, sometimes more a bit more I have the impression it just kills itself, and it always gives me the same last code you see above

someone any idea?
its a dedicated and its running on debian

That's because it does kill itself. I forget the setting, look in settings_dedicated.cfg for it, though. The server automatically kills itself after a certain period, and in older versions the default was 24 hours, iirc. You set it to 0 to disable it.

Or if you run it from the init script, it'll be restarted automatically and there's no problem at all.

well thank you, but I cant find anything like that in the dedicated_settings.cfg
perhaps I should add that manually into the config file and set it to 0
but I dont know what the function is called

Hmmm, it's at the bottom.

Anyway, I looked it up on the wiki and it's DEDICATED_IDLE.

I added this to the server administration guide.
