I fear the Redis server is either failing or it died and doesn't come back up

Hmm the error messages are very vague but can you try and take a look at Redis on your image?

Verbose logs

Yeah, don't fill in the Discord config and CSMM will boot without it

Hi, I'll look at the logs in a while, but I have another question, is it possible to install csmm without the discord bot?

journalctl --boot=-1

will dump the previous boot's logs.

:(

Can you post logs or any more info please?

Sorry to bother you again, but it doesn't work, when csmm starts it shows neither the log nor the chat, but most of the attempts go back to the boot loop 😫

Hahahaha, challenge ahead!!!

But, fair warning: it's a deep, deep rabbit hole :P

If you want to investigate more, I think there'll be related messages in kernel logs. You can check it with the

dmesg

command

Ok, thanks @User 22055452

CSMM is written in javascript, it doesn't have much low-level control over memory

It should start using swap, if it's available. But that's more of a Docker/OS responsibility rather than CSMM

Yeah

Does the machine have swap enabled?

Sorry, you've got the reason, was memory, with 2gb works fine, but inage don't use swap memory?

Or if it doesnt exist there yet, create the variable :p

You can find that

CSMM_LOGLEVEL

variable in

/etc/csmm_version

Hmm okay, it seems to be failing when initializing hooks inside the worker. It's hard to tell what's going wrong exactly though, could you try setting

CSMM_LOGLEVEL

to

verbose

and then collect logs again please?

with top

Where are you getting that number? If you're looking at the DO dashboard, it wont be accurate for situations like this

The maximum consumption of ram is just before the crash, 600M

Hmm can you try and keep an eye on memory usage of your droplet? It might be hitting the max RAM

This is what appears in the log

Ah, yeah. If it's not just for parsing later I'd push for removing the spurious errors. But barring that I can't help so I'll stfu 🙂

Ok, I'm going to try it, I'll have to be quick

First,

docker container ls

to get a list of containers, take note of the IDs here

Then

docker logs -f <container id>

to fetch the actual logs

I mean container, how to see logs?

To monitor this, I'd look at the CSMM logs and do a grep for

SSE

. That should get you most of the related messages

There indeed aren't really docs for that. The best I can give you is a link to the code 🙈

SSE_RATE_LIMIT_AMOUNT

logs per

SSE_RATE_LIMIT_MINUTES

minutes

If you want CSMM to take more logs, the TLDR is; make

SSE_RATE_LIMIT_AMOUNT

higher and/or

SSE_RATE_LIMIT_MINUTES

lower

CSMM does rate-limiting on how many logs it ingests from game servers to prevent from getting overloaded. That's what Lemon is aiming at 😄

You mean the entire OS fails to start? That's... weird :/

If you mean the container image, can you take a look at the container logs? There's likely to be an error in there

I would just run a

cron

command every minute or so that clears the offending lines with

sed

https://www.linuxshelltips.com/remove-lines-from-file-using-sed-command/

Are you running on linux?

I'd like to experiment with changing my log rate limit (throttle) if at all possible, but I haven't seen any information on this in the channels or docs. There is frequent and relentless log spam going on that I can't get rid of, the 7dtd assembly edits from Prisma don't include the lines I'm getting, they are probably specificly problematic to the overhaul I'm hosting (DF).

Thanks, I have v18, I'm going to install v16

iirc was told not to go higher then that atm...

Idk if this is a factor for DO hosting, but make sure your node is running version 16... CSMM 2.0+ requires that...
Check with command:

node -v

Hi, I have installed the digital ocean image and only got version 1.28 to work, versions 2.0 and 2.1 won't boot with the same settings, the image boots for about 15 seconds and stops, keeps looping and fails to load , I have updated node and docker but it has not worked

You can change the permission level in the

cpmsettings.xml

<ChatCommandPermissions_bed>0</ChatCommandPermissions_bed>

bed is an admin cpm command

Why would a player get you are not allowed to run this command, hen they are doing "/bed"

thank you !!

yeah indeed

and the cpm map and such, yes?

Depends, if you want people to be able to use the web shop (but they could do it from ingame too)

csmm that is..

is there any advantage to add this to the public space for user connecting to my server?
