I have switched to the latest release and i've been running the server for a couple of weeks now.
First of all i would like to thank you for maintaining OpenArena. I think the version in wheezy is in a good shape, easy to configure and even the ping has become better. :) In the meantime i've found bug #607178 which seems to deal with a very similar issue to my own. In version 0.8.8-4 i can't see error messages like AAS shutdown anymore. Crashes are rare and only seem to occur when oa_dm1 runs. The server log tells me nothing about the reasons. The only thing which bothers me is that now the server crashes even if human players play on it. It was a real showstopper when 15 people played oa_dm1 and the server shut down. I know this won't help you or upstream very much. I will still monitor this bug and report back if i can find something more meaningful. In the meantime i have removed oa_dm1 from the mapcycle thus i think it's not a problem someone should waste to much energy with. Cheers Markus
