Server shut down sefely. Players and map saved.
I (the host) am playing and from time to time the server crashes with such an error. What's wrong and how to fix it? Maybe there are some mods?

How are you hosting exactly? And on what OS is it being hosted?

I create a server, select the server settings and click "run". RAM - 5.5GB. After a while I get an error and crash.

PC windows 10

Can you share your logs.zip file found in C:\Users\YourUserName\Zomboid?
You can use any file sharing website of your choice or a temporary one like tmpsend.com for example.

If the server starts for the first time, a P2P error appears and I press the "stop" button and the "start" button again and the server logs in. Usually from the 2nd time

You get this error:
No UPnP-enabled Internet gateway found, you must configure port forwarding on your gateway manually in order to make your server accessible from the Internet.

For the server to launch correctly, you need to make sure to enable UPnP on your local router.

The UPnP function is enabled on the local router., but writes UPnP=false in the game logs
Beard Aug 14, 2022 @ 6:58am 
Is UPnP enabled in your server settings in that case?
HRs Aug 14, 2022 @ 8:28am 
Of course!

Thats very unusual in that case, can you try getting the crash again and then share the game logs again? Since I did not notice any crash errors in the last logs you shared. You mentioned the server works fine and then it just shuts down right?
HRs Aug 14, 2022 @ 9:14am 
The last logs were not quite with crash. I had a crash, I started the server (I didn't seem to log in completely to the server) and shared the logs. My fault. Yes, the server is working properly, but at some point it just crashes with such an error. My friends and I are a little tired of this error

I checked the logs again and did notice that you only have 8GB RAM on your PC correct? And you assigned 5.5 GB RAM to the server?
This might be a big problem, because the game itself requires around 2-3 GB, Now the server also requires around 2-4 GB
And lastly your Windows PC uses around 3 GB itself to run.
As you can see there isn't enough RAM for all of this to be running on the PC, which likely is the reason for the crash since the PC just runs out of RAM.
I would recommend lowering your game settings, turning off any background programs and setting the server RAM to around 3-4 GB instead.
