Problem hosting ET server

(*ABC*dOCtoR-MADneSs) #1

Hi,

I’m having troubles with an ET 2.56 server. It’s hosted on a debian linux kernel 2.4.23-grsec, stable release. I’m running severals (4) servers on same account, i’ve a clean et2.56 + etpro 3.1.0 installation. All servers are running perfectly, expect one (its config has been cloned from running servers), that is starting nicely, running some hours/days/weeks, then crashing with following error :

^3PunkBuster Server: 0 Aliases Written to /home/gamesmaster/.etwolf/pb/pbalias.dat
^3PunkBuster Server: 0 Stat Records Written to /home/gamesmaster/.etwolf/pb/pbstat.dat
ERROR: ERROR: G_RegisterPlayerClasses: failed to load character file characters/temperate/axis/soldier.char’ for the Axis Soldier

----- Server Shutdown -----

I’ve tried to delete all custom pk3"s i can, but i must keep some for official leagues, etc… i’ve 5 computers running exactly same OS and hardware specs ET server number/specs, and i’ve this trouble on only one ET server.
Can someone helps me ?

Thanks all !!!

re-install et

(DG) #3

I’m sure i remember reading a very similar post, guy running several servers and having problems with just the last one, cant think what to search forum for though.

Otherwise, make sure each server has it’s own fs_homepath, maybe try using a couple of installs and trying to minimise the excess .pk3’s for each one?
