I've seen this before, and tried to identify the problem. A valve person did ask for more information about this but I could not get more info (it doesn't happen all the time) problem is that by the time you would find out, it has already skipped and continued so you can't do any troubleshooting.
I did once have the same issue where the replay was giving a error and was hanging the server when my ftp server got ddossed (damn script kiddies) because of that the server was pretty laggy and timing out a bit. I don't know if they can reproduce that, it would be a start. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: woensdag 8 februari 2012 21:15 To: 'Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list' Subject: [hlds_linux] Replay ftp error client time out We have recently been plagued with the following replay error: * ERROR: Publish timed out after 60 seconds. This then in turn gives a mass disconnect of all clients as the server freezes due to default settings replay_fileserver_offload_aborttime is 60 seconds. Obviously that the replay offload of files connection issue is not valves fault or problem, whilst the replay offload times out it freezes the server which really shouldn't be happening. We don't wish to use local hosting and hoping that this issue can be solved. Is there a reason that while replay ftp is timing out that it should freeze the game sever? Changing replay_fileserver_offload_aborttime to its minimum of 30 seconds would hopefully stop clients timing out but honestly how many clients will look at a frozen game for 30 seconds? For now we have disabled replay which is a popular client tool.
