[cod] Server Crashes

Sun Jan 25 10:35:26 EST 2004

Change map_rotate to the first map in your rotation like:

map mp_harbor

Linux is funny in that map_rotate will only work on the command line.
Add it to the end like +set map_rotate.

That will fix it and you won't have any more problems.

Neil,

It is an 18 person CoD Public server.

2 Private slots and 16 public.

Running SD gametype and maps only.

Here is their map rotation.

// Gametype & Map-Rotation
set sv_mapRotation "gametype sd map mp_harbor map mp_carentan map

map_rotate

I have check in the log file, but it is currently at about 13,000
pages.lol.  I have no idea of what to look for.  I did a search on the
word "error" but there were no hits.

Thanks.

No worries. 

Have you checked the log files?
What does a typical crash look like? Size of server?

Provide as much info as you can about your configurations and it will be
easier to help you ;0)

What kind of game server are you running? Linux or Windows?

It seems that my CoD games tend to crash a lot.  Is this a known
problem, and if so, is there anything I can do to minimize the problem?

Thanks.
