Tekkit Lite server keeps crashing

[FalloutBe]

Hello,

Problem:

My server keeps crashing for some odd reason. It happens at random times (so not at startup, not at shutdown or at player connect, but just .. random)

I have searched these errors everywhere, but I can't find a fix for it. I did already tried to update java but that also didn't work.

OS: Linux CentOS 5 64-bit

Java Version: 1.7.0_19

Occurence:

I figured out that it happens when the server is loading chunks. If I stay in the same place, I can play forever and the server never crashes.

You could think that there are bad blocks in the map, but is just a newly generated map.

I already tried reinstalling the server but it still happens.

If I start flying around, further away, then it crashes after only half a minute of flying.

So what happens is: The server suddenly shuts down with no error message (or at least not that I know of) and the clients get the message: "Server closed".

This are the only things that were printed to the logs at that time:

Another thing that seems odd:

The server log is full of this. I traced the IP, and it is from the same location as where my server is hosted, however that is not the same IP as my vps.

Any ideas? This problem really needs to be fixed :/ the server is totally unplayable like this.

bump.

Does this happen with a vanilla server too?

Monitor your ram. I wonder if an out of memory exception is being thrown but not printed.

[FalloutBe]

No, if I run a regular server then it works just fine.

The memory is constant so there is no memory leak.

At the moment of a crash, if I then check the hystory of the memory, it also shows just normal operation.

Thank you for your reply!

It kind of looks like ddos...

Have a look at http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/random-i-p-lost-connection-spam-in-console.136035/

You can try turning off enable-query. You might also want to contact your vps provider. Perhaps there is something configured wrong. Perhaps they are disconnecting you because of all that web traffic.

[FalloutBe]

Hmm I could not find the problem, but I moved to another host and now it is fixed.

Thank you for the help though

It's MinecraftServers.net pinging you, I get it too. Turn off enable-query and see if it helps. It's probably not what is crashing you.
