Depends on the setup and the message. If it's an actual vanilla server,
feel free to contact the devs about it. Iirc Brutalcs was in close
contact with Valve at some point and tested out some custom builds (I
think this was related to high cpu usage and lagging).
If you run mods, it's almost always a mod related issue. If the watchdog
terminates the server because it hasn't heard from it in a while, it is
usually either an extension or rather a plugin being stuck in a loop
that involves some kind of callback, because by default the sourcepawn
vm aborts a call stack if a plugin takes too long. Plugins can evade
that detection easily by causing the creation of an event of the same
type that they are currently responding to (i.e. respawning clients in a
player_spawn callback).
Either way the watchdog is never the issue. It's just noticing that
something is going very wrong (as it said) and takes action. In this
specific case the watchdog assumes that the server is frozen
indefinitely (because some time has passed and it cannot know for sure).

Do you know what it is about csgo that causes (caused?) watchdog to be
triggered so frequently? I don't know if the issue ever got fixed, but
my vanilla servers were crashing every few minutes and I've just kept
nowatchdog in the command line out of laziness.

Knowing you personally for a while (if steamfriends counts as
personal), and due to a lack of further reports here, I can assure
you that the issue is some plugin/configuration on your end. So I
don't see how a second-third party problem is related to this
mailing list.
Helpful hint that you can take to a thread on AM: I'm pretty sure
one or more of your plugins are in a recursive event loop,
otherwise sourcepawn's vm would have aborted the call. Unless you
foolishly disabled that feature.
Also, please don't disable the watchdog unless you absolutely know
what you're doing.

-nowatchdog caused freezing , dind't fix it , btw , it seems that
the problem is elsewhere , because even without that plugin , the

I have been getting the same crashes and solved them with the
–nowatchdog fix, however I wasn’t using that plugin so it
must be something else too.

Actually, after a little research (trial & error), the
problem is sourcemod related, especially a plugin called
"weapon_restrict.smx" , check the issue here

More of a work around, but until a fix is found
adding '-nowatchdog' to the command line may help.

This frustrates me so much because it happens
only to 1 of my servers (csgo casual style) ,
after the latest update:
This is what I see from server console at the
moment of crashing:

line to generate a debug.log to help with solving this problem

And the maps are just dust2 , inferno , etc.
Any help would be appreciated.
