This is not a memory leak, you have been informed the server uses up to about 1.2GB of ram by itself.

Did you try without custom addons yet?

Did you try to set maxmem yet?

i dont use custome addons.

maxmem?? i thougt it is client only

the undead addon gets not loaded

[.kju 3245]

MOD=beta\; => MOD=beta

+ try without beta

+ so what effect did you get from testing with maxmem?

[flaep 1]

Here is a log

http://pastebin.com/p3miy1SL

without any changes it crashed

testing without beta and added maxmem in progress.

thank you

First the file "common\misc_acr.pbo" located in your arma folder seems corrupted, then your basic.cfg is near empty, check : http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/basic.cfg to configure it properly.

To be more precise, Memphis007 is talking about this:

Data file too short 'common\misc_acr.pbo'. Expected 1675912513 B, got 1112872 B

No entry '.\ArmA2OA.cfg.3D_Performance'.

misc_acr.pbo reuploaded

how to use basic.cfg??

"-cfg server.cfg basic.cfg"

or do i add the basic cfg lines to the server.cfg?

Warning Message: No entry '.\ArmA2OA.cfg.3D_Performance'.

are these necessary for a server???

in your launchcommand you must have two different config files :

-cfg=basic.cfg and -config=server.cfg

Where basic.cfg is named arma2oa.cfg and server.cfg arma2oaserver.cfg for an ArmAII Co server. If the names of these two files are untouched and placed inside game directory, then you don't need to add -cfg and -config to your launch parameter, but it's not secure this way.

are these necessary for a server???

Not really but if you don't put them you have unecessary errors in your logs. Please post here the content of your "basic.cfg" (or equivalent) file.

I just took the standard config from wiki.

#monitor shows:

around 33 - 41 fps

327mb memory

270 kbps out and 40 kbps in

(looks ok to me so i diddnt changed it from default basic.cfg)

htop shows 719M memory used #Monitor only 327 shouldnt it be same size??

ok seems to work.

I played for 3 hours i hope it stays this way.

Thank you for your help.
