  • Crashing

    From Tiny@21:1/130.4 to Apam on Mon Jun 24 10:32:54 2019
    Good Morning,

    The last three days in a row I've woken up to the BBS part of Magicka
    being down. Mail is still tossing, and binkd is still binkding, but the
    BBS is gone.

    Nothing in the log file.. I mean nothing. Shows my last logoff, then a
    couple lines for web stuff, then mail tossing.

    Is there a way to increase what I'm logging and hopefully be able to
    email you something? It's like when you used to crash it all the time
    when we were testing the web interface.

    There's not really. My guess is it's running out of memory, and that it's
    the webserver that's causing it.

    I've noticed my memory usage has been going up - I'm not sure why, i
    think it's something with libmicrohttpd, as i haven't been able to find
    any leaks. and possibly with web crawlers.

    can you try disabling the webserver for a few days and see if it still
    crashes? (Just toggle it off in config.ini, no need to rebuild).

    Ahhhh.

    Sure I can do that.
