Unfortunately, Windows has a track record of being subpar for hosting and leaving little to help track stuff like this. How are your running Foundry exactly? The normal native app, or via node and a process manager?

ionic sage
#

Im Running it as native app.

#

Actually i'm hosting 4 Instances. All Win 10. I'm that one friend with an esxi, the biggest internet connection and a decent cpu. ^^

#

Sadly there is no pattern when they shutdown. It seems like to just happen at random.

#

as far as i can see, there are no reboots (updates) involved.

lament hound
#

Well, as far as I'm aware, there are only 3 things that would cause Foundry to just quit. The OS asking it, doing an update or changing the settings on the setup page.

ionic sage
#

is there a possibility to increase the debuglevel on log?

lament hound
#

Not that I'm aware of nor can find. Trying to use Windows as a dedicated server using the gui app is unsupported as a general note.

#

Windows is a crap OS to be using to host stuff if they don't try to do everything Microsoft's way.

^^

#

yea.. i know..

#

One of my friends just wants the Desktop application.. :/

lament hound
#

Why?

ionic sage
#

Yes!

#

Any level of RDP/VNC/other remote screen viewing is worse than just connecting via your own web browser.

#

Unless the system is a total potato, but then why try to keep that working.

ionic sage
#

jep. i know. I think i have to be a little more convincing and migrate to linux. ^^

lament hound
#

IMHO

ionic sage
#

X'D

#

aye sir. Will do that. o7

If they want file access, there are plenty of web based file mangers, so you could give them access to their files to delete outside Foundry.

#

While I did get Foundry to work well in a VM, I just don't see it working for play if your not passing through proper GPUs into the VMs.

ionic sage
#

yea.-.. you are right.. we are all connecting via web browser..

#

It was just a "they work like that since the beginning"...

#

Maybee it's time for a change. ^^

lament hound
#

You can probably consolidate the servers down.

#

For 4, assuming they are not all being used at the exact same time, you can probably get away with 2-3 GB of RAM.

ionic sage
#

ram is no Problem. 🙂

lament hound
#

I'd do 4 GB, just in case.

#

I know that feeling with 1 TB of RAM kicking around, but there is also no need to overprovision.

ionic sage
#

lets start with 4 GB and test. ^^
