Running on Linux 2.6.9 (Debian), every so often my Source server seems to crash. With -debug on the command line, I get this in debug.log:
---------------------------------------------- CRASH: Fri Jan 14 20:56:38 GMT 2005 Start Line: ./srcds_i686 -game cstrike +maxplayers 64 +map de_dust -debug Core was generated by `./srcds_i686 -game cstrike +maxplayers 64 +map de_dust -debug'. Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault. #0 0xb7a382f5 in ?? () #0 0xb7a382f5 in ?? () End of Source crash report ----------------------------------------------
I saw dozens of bugs like that, and -i'm sorry to say- all of them occurs on Debian distribution... :O If you want to be good with yourself, replace it with suse or red hat... Even most of the admin mods are hangs up and hangs game server as well on Debian. Don't ask me why, i'm not a linux guru...
I also have six occurrences of this over the last week (server runs 24hrs), loosely illustrated here:
-rw-r--r-- 1 cstrike 17815 Jan 14 20:56 debug.log
Does anyone else have this behaviour? This is on build 2251.
No. I'm getting this several times: /var/gs/scripts/srcdsctl_27065.sh: ./: permission denied
Once, it was true, and server wasn't able to start. Rights have to be set back, and the server starts up... another mistery... i don't know the reason. My advice is to don't care with it, if server starts up and acts normally (it isn't, i know...:/ ).
If i want to be evil i say, because of the 'new' owner of Steam/Valve (MS past...) "they" prefer Windows servers, and it is planed to leave lin. based ones buggy. If i want to be a good mood, i say they are not so good in linux servers as in windows. I'd like to be kind, so i say replace Debian...
Also, is there a list on the Internet somewhere that shows all the current reported bugs in Source, Counter-Strike, and so forth? I have to confess that I don't read forums.
I tried to find one for a lot of time. Now, i have to say there's no list of that kind. Not at all.
