I am running ETPro on a Private 16 person Linux box. The mod loads fine and plays fine from what I can tell. The problem is when I do a /callvote to exec the configs. Not matter what config I have tried (twl,twl-sw,cal,sta) the server either crashes or restarts. Before it dies it comes up and says that I have called a vote and lists the vote on the screen and then about 2 seconds later connection interupted, and server has disconnected for unknown reason.

Am I doing something wrong, or is there another way to execute these configs? Thank you for your help and the work you put into the gaming comunity.

youre not running a pure server.

make sure sv_pure 1 is in your commandline or default config.

The command seta sv_pure 1 is in the default config. It is the only config I run. The other settings in the default config file seem to take so I assume this one is also. When I check through an Rcon program it says sv_pure is set to 1.

Thanks again.

Forgot to mention with all the settings above it still does not work. All /callvote commands cause a server restart and/or crash

seems to be a problem with com_watchdog settings

set com_watchdog to 0

we havent been able to reproduce the bug though, can you get the console output when it crashes?

I changed com_watchdog to 0 and it is still crashing/restarting.

Now here is where being a newb server admin comes into play. I looked at the console and the only thing it says is server disconnected for unknown reason. I looked for server logs but could not find any. Guess if you could explain how to get you more information I would be happy to do so. Sorry for being a newb

Code: Select all

// LOGGING

set g_log "NAME???.log"
set g_logsync 1
set logfile 2
You will find "NAME???.log" and "etconsole.log" in the \etmain or the \bani folder.

Problem update. I am at work now and added the server logging and tried to /callvote twl-sw and it worked fine.

I was having some other issues with ET on my home rig where I could not pick up my own ammo, reload any weapons once a clip was emptied, and pick up/return objectives. I deleted ETpro and reinstalled it and it fixed those problems. I am wondering of the whole problem that I have been having is client side the whole way. Once I get home and try from my rig there I will be able to confirm or deny this theory. Thank you all for your help.
