1.09 Server Issues

[Auss 208]

I am having big stability issues with 1.09 server. I cannot get it stable. Its getting to the stage where I am thinking of rolling back to 1.08 can someone from BIS assist?

Running 2003serverx64

Am running 4 servers and they are all suffering the same problem. Soon as its gets over 10 players it crashes.

Have applied all Windows hotfixes and SP2. Even rolled them back with no improvment

Try removing all addons except extended Eventhandlers, and make sure extended eventhandlers is v1.07 or newer.

In general v1.09 servers have a bug with more than 50 players, but not otherwise.

Try hooking the arma_server processes on 1 cpu at a time, to see if this changes anything.

In all other cases I would believe your clients are causing your crashes, but this depends on the reproducability of the 10-player limit crash in your case.

Hey sickboy

Have set affinity to core 0 CPU1 - No change (and tried the other CPU cores also one at a time)

Have removed ALL addons and tested - No change

I have exhausted all options I can think of. I thought stuff it I might as put the extended eventhandlers back as its still buggered without them.

The thing is nothing has changed except for me adding missions and regular windows updates......
