sniperrecon1 0 Posted January 5, 2011 Hiya We been having an issue where when we stop the arma 2 and the arma 2oa servers they leave a pid in the process list. We have been unable to get rid of this ghost by anything other than rebooting the whole tower. We have tried using pskill, taskkill, tskkill, etc. They have said that process was killed but the pid is still listed. Other times it says access denied. But mostly it doesnt say or do anything. Is anyone else having/had this issue? If so or have ideas on how to fix this please reply. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TechnoTerrorist303 10 Posted January 5, 2011 I've had Arrowhead continue running after I've shut it down which necessitated killing the process from task manager but it's never given problems beyond that. Are you running the process as a user with the correct privileges? What OS are you using on the tower? You might want to change your thread title to something that at least looks related to Arma2 as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sniperrecon1 0 Posted January 5, 2011 sorry thought the title said it its windows server web w/ sp2 amd athlon2x4 620 Processor 2.6ghz 4 ghz ram 64 bit We log in to the server thru remote access as admin to the admin account. And yes both arma 2 and arma 2 oa both leave a pid in the process list. One assumes that find and fix one, the other would be the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TechnoTerrorist303 10 Posted January 6, 2011 The title of the thread suggests you're asking for help with a web server which you're not. You want help with an Arma2 server. I'm pretty sure you mean you have 4gb ram too not 4ghz... If the server was booting from "cold" do the server processes start as part of an automatic process or do you manually start them using rdp? Do you only have the one RDP session running or have you started multiple ones at one point? On our server we had two seperate remote sessions running at one time and that can cause problems. What happens if you try to end the process just using the task manager's processes tab? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sniperrecon1 0 Posted January 6, 2011 thx for pointing out my typos, helpful. no, have to start manually. only 1 rpd can be opened at a time. it boots whoever is logged in at the time next user logs in. if you mean ending the process thru task manager same as above, either with applications tab or the processes tab same results.

visceralsyn 10 Posted January 7, 2011 (edited) Typos not corrected, are a problem. If english is not a persons' first language, then you've effectively ruled out help from alot of people, cuz typo's make things non decipherable. Winders Web Server is probably not the best OS to run a non-web server application server. Juss sayin... Try creating a user account, that only has full access to the ArmA server, and nothing else. Use only that account to admin the ArmA server, try it at like User, before Power User. Make sure to add it to the RDP allowed users list too. ...Syn...
