Restart cycle freezes debian #65

Open locint opened 2 months ago

locint commented 2 months ago

I experienced something today and not for the first time but this time I dedided to look into system logs.

The restart cycle somehow manages to cause my debian home server to freeze. I've been running a cluster of three servers without any issues.

Memory usage is around 30GB/64GB but apparently I ran out of memory.

CPU: 5600g

So far I can tell that there was a lot of restart spam in the logs as well for serveral hours.

Snapshot of the logs moments before the system freezes:

have you ever look at the docker logs to see what is doing.. and could it be cause by the auto updater what you can do is on the docker compose that says UPDATE_SERVER=TRUE change it to FALSE and see if that helps with the issue only thing is the server will only update when the container is restarted

locint commented 2 months ago

Good idea. Docker logs reveals that the connection to steam and epic was lost which could be the root of this issue? Turning off UPDATE_SERVER let's see if that helps. Perhaps the script could check for connection before updating?

Acekorneya commented 1 month ago

did you ever figure out what happen or did it continue to happen made a few update to the container to stop it from causing issues when you have multiple of them running at the same time

locint commented 1 month ago

I've been doing manual updating and there has been no issues so far. How does auto update process happen? It closes all the containers, asks steacmd to update and then starts all containers at once? I see how straightforward this is its really hard to pinpoint how it could somehow corrupt the serverfiles. However it could corrupt mods if one container is updating the mod and then the other container is trying to do the same. Perhaps I could try the fix you've provided. :)

Acekorneya commented 1 month ago

Thank you for your feedback and for sharing your experience. I've made some improvements to address the issues you've described, particularly regarding multiple containers trying to update simultaneously.

To clarify the auto-update process in this project:

  1. The script periodically checks for updates based on the CHECK_FOR_UPDATE_INTERVAL set in the Docker Compose file.

  2. When an update is found, the script does the following:

    • Sends an RCON message to notify players of the impending restart
    • Initiates a restart command with a countdown based on the RESTART_NOTICE_MINUTES set in the Docker Compose file

  3. Once the countdown reaches zero:

    • The PID file is deleted
    • This triggers the monitor script to detect that the server is not running
    • The monitor then initiates a server restart

  4. During the restart process, the init script checks for updates:

    • If an update is needed, it creates a lock file (updating.flag)
    • It then updates the server files using SteamCMD
    • The lock file is removed once the update is complete

  5. The server then starts up with the updated files

The lock file system (updating.flag) in a shared directory prevents race conditions when multiple instances try to update simultaneously. Other instances will wait if they detect the lock file, preventing simultaneous updates to the shared server files.

These changes should significantly reduce the risk of file corruption or boot loops caused by simultaneous updates. The lock file system ensures that only one instance at a time can update the shared server files.
