David, I'm using the stock Lenny kernel: Linux yuna 2.6.26-2-amd64 #1 SMP Wed Aug 19 22:33:18 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux My system is completely up-to-date. Besides, surely kernel features should never cause a crash in userland unless userland is doing something very wrong... What I see is

Signal 11 is a segmentation fault, so it looks like the child processes are trying to perform some sort of memory access at an illegal address. I'm afraid I'm at a loss as to why this would be happening. Do the core dumps show anything odd? - Dave Chris Boot wrote: David, I'm

Dave, The core dumps are mostly useless, I can't get gdb to load the symbols at all and it just complains about invalid addresses. My kernel logs a stream of messages when I start the server though, for example: Oct 29 14:03:12 yuna kernel: [4204278.388117] srcds_linux[4377]: segfault at

That's very strange. I have no idea why this would matter, but I wonder if it's an issue of CPU affinity. For some reason, using taskset to explicitly set the CPU affinity of srcds solved a couple of problems for me in the past. I use it to set the affinity of L4D to both cores of my

Hi, I'm trying to run a forked server with 10 child processes, but if I try and fork more than 2 children all the children crash out with a core dump. Any ideas? My command-line is like this: ./srcds_run \ -console \ -game left4dead2 \ -debug \ -pidfile

Hi, Hmm, after more testing I can't seem to run any number of forks properly, with children core dumping regularly when I use a forked server... A non-forked server seems to run just fine. Anyone else have this problem? I'm using a 64-bit Debian Lenny server (HP DL140 G3). Can I run several

Hi Chris, Just wanted to let you know that I'm running a server with 6 forks on 64-bit Debian Lenny and I am not seeing this problem. All six forks stay up and there is no core dumping going on. My first guess would be that your problem is related to your kernel configuration, such as high
