WHOIS mod

Is that that BlockOS mod?

[Fluff-is-back]

This keeps happening because of morons who can't code and cause a ton of unclosed TCP connections to fill up. Among those responsible are the creators of the WHOIS mod (however not many people use it).

I was unaware the connections were remaining, when I was testing this, the onDisconnect() function was always called. I find it odd that problems are arising now, this has been running on some servers for several days now.
However, if this has been the cause, I thoroughly apologies for any problems caused by this.

Is that that BlockOS mod?

No, the app will be fine. Apparently the server-sided collection is causing problems

[Kalphiter]

I was a little too quick to throw the blame on you guys, but it was one of the hosts with the most unclosed connections.

It could have been another mod causing this.


I recommend getting a program like TCPView or Cports to check the amount of connections.

[Lugnut]

doesn't netstat do the exact same thing?

[Greek2me]

doesn't netstat do the exact same thing?

Yeah.

I would actually recommend using Resource Monitor in Windows 7.

[-Jetz-]

Any chance this error that I'm seeing all over the place is related?

Every time I eval something from the remote client, it seems to create a new TCP object without deleting it.

Edit: Oh, just a bit after doing that, I got this all at once:

Didn't Kalphiter make the remote client?

[-Jetz-]

Didn't Kalphiter make the remote client?

Yeah. Strange thing is, the onDisconnect error comes up after the master server post, but it doesn't leave a lingering TCPobject. My best guess is that the disconnect really isn't working, and the connections are actually being closed when the object is deleted, which evidently isn't happening here. I don't have my copy of Blockland with me though, so I can't test much.

[Greek2me]

Add-Ons/System_ReturnToBlockland/support/networking.cs (319): Unknown command onDisconnect. is an RTB error, but it doesn't actually cause any problems. It happens because RTB packages/parents TCPObject::onDisconnect, which causes any TCPObjects that do not have ::onDisconnect to give an error. It's totally harmless.

[-Jetz-]

Ah, well as I said, I can't test or look over much right now. My knowledge of TCPobjects is pretty limited, too.

[Kalphiter]

Ok, the programs I listed can close those connections.

[pecon98]

The connection on my server seems choppy for me, is that isp issue you mentioned still going on?

[--LegoPepper--]

My server is currently undergoing massive lag spikes. Anyone else?

[-Jetz-]

Yep.

[pecon98]

Nobody can connect.
