Ruleset(s): 5e
New Campaign: IWD-RotF
Extensions/Themes: Official Language Extension (FR)
Modules Loaded: The core 5e modules, PHB, MM, DMG, as well IWD-RotF
Operating System / Language Setting: Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS (Focal Fossa) / Win10
Steps to Reproduce: None that I know of. Seems to occur mostly in 3rd hour.
Lesson Learned:
Save logs before restarting server. Maybe next time.
Background:
I have about 1 server crash during 3 hour game sessions. First happened under Linux. Switched to Windows 10 for next game session. Not only server crash but Windows BSOD. Back to Linux. Two more game sessions, two more CTD.
This weeks game session:
Players were on Gem Mine level 2. I started dragging icons from combat tracker to Gem Mine level 3. Some players started to comment that they could only see black. Could see icons but nothing else. I turned off LOS which fixed that issue. They could see whole map. 30 seconds to 1 minute later server crashed. When server restarted, game state was prior to when I turned off LOS. Will try to remember to get logs next time.
