This thread can be used primarily to

a) report crashing and other bugs with the linux server
b) obtain support to install the linux server / get it working

I have not been able to play with the server I put up too much, however I have noticed two possible bugs, hopefully I can verify these or someone else can

- The server crashes sometimes when the kamama(sp??) blast is used (I was goku), I think especially if you are firing and get hit and keep the beam going - this seemed to happen a lot on esf_cell_day

- Is gohan's mesnko attack not available for anyone?

Edit: I also noticed the mapcycle.txt was not complete with all the maps available, and one map has a day and night version, but no corresponding bsp maps? If that sounds confusing look at the mapcycle.txt and you'll see esf_cell is not the only one with day and night...?

Please start listing bugs etc you have noticed, perhaps we can come up with reproducable bugs that are common.

I've seen plenty of errors with the linux mod. I hosted it one night and I woke up and it had crashed a few times.

One of them said like this entity error but I'll start using "-debug".

*edit

Oh also the entity error happend right after one of my friends used the kamayamaya blast too. he was also goku.

I get those exact same seg faults once every hour or two. Its not the system... my NS server is running fine on the same machine.

Here are the last few lines of one of the logs:

L 12/01/2002 - 12:40:47: "HC<60><140891><fatbuu>" killed "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH<13><1582238><fatbuu>" with "mouthblast"
L 12/01/2002 - 12:40:57: "Flood<40><634347><frieza>" committed suicide with "trigger_hurt" (world)
L 12/01/2002 - 12:40:58: "Raven<61><3258312><goku>" say "how do u block"
L 12/01/2002 - 12:41:04: "TheSkaarj<53><1253823><piccolo>" say "hold q"
L 12/01/2002 - 12:41:08: "Smokey`<47><2892596><trunks>" killed "HC<60><140891><fatbuu>" with "me

As you can see, it stops writing to the log in the middle of the line so the logs have no info. I'll have to get a stack trace for you.

Seems to be the shield attack that is crashing it, everytime someone gets a big one ready it crashes the server.

that is the first error I got. They should make a patch and fix the ergent problems that cause games to suck. If your playing for awhile and have a high pl/score you don't want the server to crash.

nice try. Someone actually came into my house and deleted HLDS so I did have to reinstall and still nothing. Pretty weird case but I'm dead serious. I think it was my brother being a little as$hole.
