repeated "internal network server crash"

[leviblue]

Launcher/pack Version: Tekkit 2.1.1 (latest update)

Operating System: Windows 7 64bit

Version of Java: 7.1 64bit

Description of Problem: So I'm running into this issue but only after having my server up and running for generally over a day or two, friends can still join outside of my local network but any computer or myself within the network with the server, we get timed out. Plus when this happens if I make server commands it lags in cmd response (seems to be related, only happens when this issue is going on).

Error Messages: N/A

Link to pastebin of log: http://pastebin.com/HZ6gyjD8

Now it's pretty obvious (or I think) that's just a total crash yet my friends can join like I said outside of the local network and I can go back roughly 6-12 hours to my last physical back up of the entire server folder and join their....

I read the set up for the server and went to all the mod/plugins pages and read through it but they're just basic overviews on those specific items, nothing (from what I saw) mentioned server bug corrections or anything like that so just wondering if perhaps I missed something. I downloaded the server zip, extracted and adjusted RAM accordingly, (got new java to fix Advancedmachines issue), but running into this issue where it seems like the server becomes "corrupt" in a region and it lags bad in that area, when this happens it makes any local computers not join, and when I put commands into the server it even takes a long time to respond to them.

I'm wondering if there was an issue with machines running while no one was on in an area with lots of stuff going on? I know chunks usually shut down but it seems like they weren't, should I try running my character on the server as afk even when I leave to work to see if it crashes for a better report?

If anyone has any idea's or links to something I missed please let me know. Thank you for your time it's much appreciated

Sorry if this is all just crazy I do customer support so take your time, ask what ya need and if ya do agree with the idea of running my character on the server just say so and I'll get that going for ya....just gotta backdate the server again :'(...

arg, sorry just read over (again) and meant obvious the log report is my tekkit just crashing signing in....the server is though running..and blah blah....sorry 9 days of work in a row and just now had time to get this taken care of. Thank you guys so much. I'll be quiet now

[leviblue]

Arg...I been in the other server forum and just saw the massive server slow down due to buildcraft contraptions, I think that's exactly what's going on....so we need to try chunk loader blocks?!? Would you like a reply to if this resolves the issue? I think it may be the cause now that I've had more time to go through more posts....

Sorry for any waisted time but it's greatly appreciated. If you have any other idea's or know this isn't the issue let me know....

btw if you know a link for more explanations about these blocks please let me know, I know my stuff but have been very busy and am kind of a n00b at running my server. (I will obviously keep using my resources for more information)

[leviblue]

oh figured out chunk loading, I'm so sorry....dumb customer today '

[leviblue]

Well, we added chunk loaders and now that it ran for about 12 hours with lots of stuff going on, and chunk loaders....I woke up with a friend on the server....as soon as I tried to join server commands stopped working and stuff....any idea what is going on and why my server will stop letting local IP's join

[leviblue]

Soooo any other idea's?

[Nickknel]

i dont understand why the forum community isnt helping out here. come on you guys we want to be able to enjoy this just as much as you guys are. can someone please explain why the server is crashing?

[leviblue]

wow, I feel as if i didn't follow the bug template that I would've at least been replied to saying I had a temp ban. Can you guys at least say, we're looking into the matter, ask me questions, maybe do anything that helps me know the 60+ views on this has been seen by a moderator and not just other forum posters....when I first got tekkit I was telling people to check it out it's awesome and perfect, only thing I can complain about is my server crashing after a day or two and that you guys have NO assistance for me. This alone though would change my mind from suggesting to just saying that this self mod installing program is nothing but a big bug report....

[sioframay]

Not only did I want to try it out, to which end you people were no help, but we had a whole forum of people waiting for your programs to work. So why don't you put on your big girl panties and help us run a server off of your programs.

it's not our job to help you. the people that post here trying to help do so out of their own free will because they like to help. they don't owe you an answer or a solution. I have no idea why your server would stop accepting local connections randomly, but I know you won't get far with that kind of attitude.

[leviblue]

Well my attitude did get a response from ya, saying that you got no idea....that alone is more than I was getting and an answer I'm ok with, If this is a crazy issue and with everyones heads together can't figure anything out....I'm ok with that. Although as my buddy nick stated we put money together to run a server but was wanting to change to something a bit more "simple" with mods....totally willing to donate for good service and assistance but so far that's lacking.

[Nickknel]

Where is the forum then that we can get ahold of the people that put all of this together? we as a group already have money that goes into this each month and we have no issues donating to the modders but if it doesnt work it doesnt make us want to give money to anything. i guess as of this moment we just waiting on the api thats gonna come with 1.2.5 hopefully or look at bukkit again. also something that i wanted to point out that may help is that it may not be about the local connection but the fact that the local connection people all play in this one area and this one area has 8 cobble stone genorators 4 electric furances 1 condensor 3 maceerators 25 or 26 solar panals 1 quarry an energy condenser that the cobble genorators feed into. 3 bat boxes 1 mfe all diffrent types of pipes (dimond wireless transport pipe, stone pipe. obsidain pipe, iron pipe) it has had all diffrent types of wireing recently i replaced all the wires with the fiber cables. a transmuation table an alchemist chest. it did at one time have nuke power but it was taken out by the first server freeze, we honestly thought it might have gone boom and so the chunk was just having issues loading. we also thought that when the chunks unloaded it was dropping the little partical blocks from the pipes and this overwhelming amount of drops where freezing the server like an experance machine will do in single player. so we added chunk loaders. 12 hours later it broke agian. i know you guys dont owe us anything but it would be nice to get some ideas or help here or at least a we dont know whats wrong. its just sad we had to get a little nasty just to get someone to respond. for that i thank you freakachu.

[Nickknel]

1 more thing i keep reading about the condenser and pipe issue. we dont have any pipes that actaully run into the condenser but there is some within a few blocks will this cause issues?

[freakachu]

the pipe+condenser issue involves wooden pipes being hooked up to condensers. causes errors and such, it's a known issue. pipes near chests is fine

as for the "we spent good money" bit, no one cares. it doesn't obligate anyone to do anything for you here. you didn't pay the technic team, nor do they accept payments or donations of any kind.

[Nickknel]

i never stated that i paid anything for tekkit what i stated was that our group already puts money into minecraft each month. and the fact that technic doesnt allow donations doesnt mean anything, if they did and there product worked then we would donate. i think you might have miss read what i said. esp since you quoted me as saying something thats no where to be found.

[leviblue]

hahaha....nice "quotation" there. This entire house hold and a majority of the people on our server has or still does work in customer support, we're just trying to figure this out for obviously our own and also anybody else's out there and coming to you because one can't fix anything if they're not aware of the issue. If you think it's "over your head" that's fine. Sorry to be of such a bother and thanks for not banning. I've noticed the forums not the most lenient.
