Sorry I've been unspecific again.
I'm sorry for all the hassles... rest assured, once you have the dedicated server up and running, you'll be amazed how rock-solid it operates for ages without any need to interfere with it.

Back to topic:
You need to put the file "EEBBE344D2C2A05A" into a subfolder of "#UP#" (quite like you would with any other mod), the name doesn't matter - if you like, call it "server hotfix".
So the folder/file structure has to be like this:

Code: [Select]

[your game folder]
                |
                +--> [#UP#]
                       |
                       +--> [server hotfix]
                                   |
                                   +-------> EEBBE344D2C2A05A
(Note: Square brackets just denote folder names, they are not part of the name of the folder itself)

I'm 150% confident that once the file is in the right spot, the random crashes will end.

Ran various missions on the server over past few days, but I am still experiencing crashes.
Placed the mod in its own folder within #UP#:

Hm... interesting.
If you could provide a crashing mission we could cross-check on our server.
Other than that, please find another version of the file "EEBBE344D2C2A05A" attached to this post.
As before, extract the file from the zip and put it into your "server hotfix" folder.
I take it that there is no other folder inside "#UP#" but "server hotfix" and maybe "STD"?
Last but not least, instead of running the server exe with double-click, I recommend to open a command prompt and run the exe in there manually.
That way you see the last output from the server when it crashed.
Maybe there's another issue which the server would have told you about all the time already...

Put the new "EEBBE344D2C2A05A" in, there are no other folders inside #UP# besides "STD" and "server hotfix". Tested few more times and issue persists, sometimes it is 20 minutes before a crash, other times 2 hour, or 6 hours...
Nothing in the terminal after il2server.exe quits:



These missions crashed:
S1.mis
FL_StalingradW42Red.mis
FL_Korea2Blue.mis

There must be a player connected to the server for the crashes to occur, an empty server has no issues.

Are there any other options to resolving my issue with the Ultrapack 3.4 dedicated server? I've reinstalled again and again- it still crashes at random times when players are connected to the server.

Did the sas1946.rocks server use the same files and patching process? Or is there a mission I can run to test if it crashes? I loaded missions with nothing but home bases on them and they do not crash. I'm not sure where it starts, whether with AI or static objects placed on the map.

[SAS~Storebror]

I will prepare another test file for you guys tomorrow.
We'll nail it down, don't worry.
