Hey! Today our Linux server started crashing out of the blue...

I have the logs attached in the comments. Shortly before it crashed this was logged:

21:07:36.662 [pool-5-thread-2] ERROR endercrypt.gitgud.modules.server.ServerModule - ERROR: General     , 1678482456661> 20,591,354,918> IsoGameCharacter$XP.load> unknown trait "scrapwarrior"

#

The server is modded but we didn't have any problems before...

#

In case you are wondering what "endercrypt.gitgud" is. We start the server with a custom .sh file as we are using a custom bot that allows us to restart the server directly from Discord. We use it for months though so its probably not the reason either

Can you share the hs err pid file from the server install folder?

proven mesa Can you share the hs err pid file from the server install folder?

You mean from the folder where the game is installed? In that case I have two.

hr_err_pid777555.log is the newest one. It was last changed on the 04.03.23 tho

#

if you need something else just tell me. Its weird to me that there is no file for the current date

yesterday this happened three times. First time the issue appeared it happened seemingly out of the blue. After restarting it took 5 minutes for it to happen again and then another 20 minutes until it happened the third time.

After that I updated every package on my server with sudo apt update and upgrade and rebooted the server itself entirely. It seemed to go fine for almost 24 hours but now it happened again crydeath I could be a memory issue as well. Something like a memory leak probably caused by a mod.. but if it is what mod? :/

No I meant from the server specifically

#

You said you have a dedicated Linux server right?

tawdry lagoon Mar 11, 2023, 6:13 PM

#

yes exactly. Where can I find these logs?

proven mesa Mar 11, 2023, 6:17 PM

#

In the main server install folder

#

Where you are launching the server from

tawdry lagoon Mar 11, 2023, 6:31 PM

#

so the directory where the "Project Zomboid Dedicated Server" is installed? There is no hr_err file in that folder :/

#

This is the content of said folder

#

Does not seem like the server is crashing in that case

#

Since if it would, it would create the err pid file here

#

Are you sure whatever third party applications you are using are not killing the server?

tawdry lagoon Mar 12, 2023, 3:24 PM

#

When the server crashes it writes something like that into the console:

ERROR ./start-server.sh: line 26: 820201 Killed LD_PRELOAD="${LD_PRELOAD}:${JSIG}" ./ProjectZomboid64 "$@"

We are using a custom discord bot that is giving us this error

ERROR: ld.so: object 'libjsig.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored.```

Any idea if this might be connected? What does LD_PRELOAD means?

proven mesa Mar 12, 2023, 6:12 PM

#

It just preloads the libraries, it should not be related to the crashes at all

#

I am not sure about the killed line, it seems like something is just killing the server shell

#

I recommend looking into whatever custom changes you did to the server, since that would likely be the main cause of the issue

#

Okey so its been a while but here I am again.

The problem here most likely is that there is an ungodly amount of "GlobalModDataRequest" send by some mod...

Any way to find out what is causing this? These constant crashes cause roll backs for our players and are plaguing us for over a week now..

I also have this hs_err file now. I don't know what exactly it says though

📎 hs_err_pid2454.log

#

The crash log seems to just be a generic crash, as if the steam client itself crashed

#

I assume you are not launching the server through the Steam client are you?

#

Using SteamCMD would be preferred over that
