Topic: facing random time-outs [Fixed]

[[FSR]Ush]

Hi there,

We're facing some random time-outs it looks like. This happend to me twice last hour. You just race and some people get timed out.

[17:46:25] <AdrenalineX> 2*** [SC]skunk has left the server (4Timeout2)
[17:46:25] <AdrenalineX> 12*** [UK]JOE died
[17:46:33] <AdrenalineX> 2*** [XR]xBuLLx has left the server (4Timeout2)
[17:46:35] <AdrenalineX> 12[SC]Phil_Ivey [6]: bs
[17:46:39] <AdrenalineX> 2*** [XR]SkyMan has left the server (4Timeout2)
[17:46:39] <AdrenalineX> 2*** Papa has left the server (4Timeout2)
[17:46:41] <AdrenalineX> 12*** [UK]JOE died
[17:46:45] <AdrenalineX> 2*** [SyD]Peste has left the server (4Timeout2)
[17:46:45] <AdrenalineX> 2*** Adolfo_Quiroz has left the server (4Timeout2)
[17:46:45] <AdrenalineX> 2*** Reeder has left the server (4Timeout2)
[17:46:45] <AdrenalineX> 12[SC]Isildur1 [35]: timeout time again
[17:46:45] <AdrenalineX> 12Gen [55]: lol
[17:46:45] <AdrenalineX> 2*** [FSR]Ush has left the server (4Timeout2)
[17:46:45] <AdrenalineX> 2*** Torn_City has left the server (4Timeout2)

After this, the irc-bot who directs the messages from server to irc doesn't pass on any message and time outs too(probably cause of people restarting).

[17:49:46] * AdrenalineX (Adrenaline@irc-A489E25A.game.kingj.net) Quit (Ping timeout)

After that server got back on, I inmeadiatly typed !players on irc.

[17:51:05] * AdrenalineX (Adrenaline@irc-A489E25A.game.kingj.net) has joined #AdrenalineX

[17:51:06] * ChanServ sets mode: +o AdrenalineX

I asked Gen if he did disconnect, he didn't.
[17:52:05] <Ush> !say gen, did you stay on server whole time ?
[17:52:05] <AdrenalineX> 12Ush [IRC]: gen, did you stay on server whole time ?
[17:52:12] <Ush> !say and racing just went on ?
[17:52:13] <AdrenalineX> 12Ush [IRC]: and racing just went on ?
[17:52:16] <AdrenalineX> 12Gen [11]: ye

This is very strange... probably some numbers wrong in the script.

[[LSR]Jalicno]

Nah Ush,when first time happened AX forum was already down some period,so looks like its host problem not script

[[MAF]mooman]

forum isn't hosted on the game server

[[LSR]Jalicno]

Well have no idea just i went on forum to check whats going on and forum was already down 2-3 minutes 

[[2F2F]Hellmuth]

Well around 3/4 people timed out first time and none of them came back then we restarted server and the server restarted like 3 times ( or lost connection ) within a time period of 2 minutes. Then it went smooth until around 17:45 CET when server and forum went down. Atleast it did for me... seems to work fine now. I'd like to add I didnt went out first time when 3/4 people timed out just now.

[[MAF]mooman]

hm well the server and forum are both in the same data centre. could be a problem with that

[[LSR]Jalicno]

Could be they doing some update cause i have realize that my game is big laggy though its ISP fault

[[FSR]Ush]

Yep forum was down too at one of the times I got disconnected..

hm well the server and forum are both in the same data centre. could be a problem with that

So must be something to do with that

Only small edits to the script, but very possible coding could cause the timeouts.

I need help, can someone send me their   handling.cfg file? Located in your gta san andreas/data folder
Thanks, rar and attach to a post for quickness

Just had the same timeout thing, it's a coding problem (I think).

I also believe (and hope) it's the delayed TV switch, easy to fix. Hard to upload

Thanks for reporting Ush
