Just a quick update to my fellow server operators with regard to my TF2 server's crashing.
By now all of you know that SourceMod was updated extensively last night and that has solved the plugin and extension errors we were receiving after yesterday's update. However, I'm having plenty of crashes occuring on my Vanilla MvM Boot Camp servers still. This afternoon I had 9 of them crash within an hour of each other. No dmps are being created when they crash from what I can tell. Since the update most of them crashed at least once, some as many as 5 times. Just thought I'd see if anyone else is seeing crashes and at the same time let Valve know there's a problem. These servers never crashed prior to the update yesterday. The servers are running on a Windows 2008 dedicated server box with plenty of available resources. Happy Friday!

Only Windows is crashing though. On May 15, 2014 8:11 PM, "Ross Bemrose" <[email protected]> wrote: Is this server running SourceMod? SourceMod's gamedata seems to need an update on Windows. It doesn't seem to affect Linux. Or at least my Linux PropHunt Redux server seems to be operating normally and PHR requires several common extensions (SDKTools, SDKHooks, TF2Items, TF2) in addition to the SourceMod core.

I haven't isolated the trouble yet but it's an SRCDS Crash with no auto-restart in Windows. Just wanted you all to know to keep an eye on your servers for a little while. I'l report back if I find anything. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Eric Smith Sent: Thursday, May 15, 2014 3:59 PM To: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list ([email protected]); Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list ([email protected]); '[email protected]' ([email protected]) Subject: [hlds] Mandatory updates for TF2, CS:S, DoD:S, and HL2:DM released We've released mandatory updates for TF2, CS:S, DoD:S, and HL2:DM.
