Topic: How to Fix Server Crasher?

Hello,
sry for my bad english.

Im working on a little Server mod for me. All working fine. Today a friend joined and after a small talk he said he can crash teeworlds server. I dont have belive him that.. five sec later he crashed my server.

After a little talk he said me, thats its not my fault. It has something to do thats the server is on windows.
He dont say me where the problem is and how to fix it. He only say he already have said them for some people but dont want that all know it.

Someone from here already know how to fix it?

I can only say thats he nothing write or something. The Server Crashed instantly after he said.

Which teeworlds version? Teeworlds 0.5.2 has a known, abusable bug.

Yes for sure. There was a guy that created some replacement already. And best of all it's already on github: https://github.com/torvalds/linux

Well, ok, I agree - could be too complicated to use that from scratch. Maybe that could help either: http://www.debian.org wink

If both does not help I would recommend use mingw as compiler on windows (needs some up to date 0.6 TW) and start your mod throug a windows version of "gdb". Afterwards tell your friend again he should try to crash it... if it still crash make a backtrace and tell us the result.

Greetings,
Mo(2)

Hm, he's probably just trolling for attention.. If he can really crash servers he should try at 79.235.67.175:8303. I doubt it though...

@Irata: Do you run pure teeworlds or a server mod?

Well I don't think that somebody hacked your rcon. He probably just guessed it.
However have an eye on your logfiles.

Really? Maybe that's the reason why I've wrote you something regarding "gdb" (no that was no kidding... it's meant serious). So the only post that could really help you (even using linux or debugging with gdb to find out the bug for windows) got minus-scores. If you have a clue how to debug with MS-debugger you even can try that one... but I can't give you any hints regarding that. Except that you can just guesswork (and most of this thread is useless anyway ) - for example if it was real what you've seen. Sometimes I really think that forum seriously sucks. Software always could have holes but if your server crashes then you can debug it. That's doing something real against it and not just guessing or moving the problem to somewhere else.

It seems the bad guy already disproved your theory (as we could read in the first post) or Irata is the troll here (which I don't assume).

Last time I remember that issue it was on a nodes server. At first I thought there was a security hole. After reading the source (that was already public for long time) I've found out that there was a hardcoded password in the code (which I've removed afterwards). If that happened at a vanilla-TW-server I don't have a clue. Weak password or leak. Both could be possible. But I'm pretty sure the problem of the crash and your problem are fully different.

heinrich5991 wrote:

He already answered that at the first post (he run a mod ... so this subforum is the right one) - but it seem the crasher know a hole regarding 0.6 TW....... for windows.

P.S. - Am I the only one who thinks that such huge posts (merged automatically together) are somewhat unreadable and sucks?

Okay, since nothing happened we can safely let this rest now.

Community can worry if at least 2 players will report a crash.

Re: How to Fix Server Crasher?

For anyone who didn't get it, i was trying to provoke said person. It either didn't work (you don't have to be too bright to get it..) or it doesn't work.

Nonetheless, without any information there's nothing to be done (unless anyone plans to check the sourcecode).

Case closed (for now?)

Re: How to Fix Server Crasher?

@m!nus:
Irata runs a mod and he knows c/c++ badly, so i don't think that it's to difficult to crash his server. Then the guy "X" continue expressing Irata by fake info, that he can crash all tw servers. Simple kidding from "X" side.

All the people who know how to crash 0.5.2 servers said me that it's impossible to crash 0.6.X. (that's why all the 'hackers' still play on 0.5.2)

I agree to close the case untill new reports.

Re: How to Fix Server Crasher?

I spoke with him in Skype. It's not a vanilla teeworlds bug.
It's mod related.
