New & raw web based Dominion II game server

Cainehill · #1 August 14th, 2004, 01:50 AM

Esben, one of the games on mosehansen (Cradle of Uncivilization) has gone into a stopped status 4 times in 5 days ( I restart it, but then sometimes see staled turns, even though the turn is in when I recheck after restarting).

Any idea what's happening, or if I should just let the game die a painful death? Thanks.

Make that five times in a stopped status, and a bump of the thread.

The server just says "Something went wrong" and quits. Some internal state has probably been corrupted, but who knows?

Thanks Esben - guess there's an open slot on your server then.

Esben one of the games at your server (Faerun folly) seems to have a problem.
When I connect it crashes my system, other players reported the same.
Could you please see what is going on?

Thanks

Mose is unlikely to to be able to diagnose this, as it's probably a client-side problem unless everyone is getting it.

How many people are affected (I'm not, BTW)? Does it happen with every connection, or just intermittently?

Faerun Folly

I've just restarted the game, because it had started to hang on the "Waiting for game info" box. Restarting seems to have cleared the problem, but Ermor (Catquiet) and Pangaea (djtool) will have to upload their orders again (restarting clears any orders received for the current turn).

One of my games, low magic game 2, peopel are having trouble connecting, and are missing turns. I've been eliminated from this game, and its now up to turn 97, I'm goign to try restarting it, anything else to try?

stopping and restarting a game usually fixes those connection problems, IME.

Just restart it, or try connection mulitple times. It's related to the overloaded VM and subtle bug in the game. Johan has tried to find the error, but unsuccesfull --- we couldn't reproduce it
