Lost all render pools on restart

Our server had an expected shutdown and all the organization of the pools were lost. I have the stdout from that session.
It says "0 pools found".
Is it reading from a store file in C:/temp that is occasionally removed?

Code: Select all

Hello!
On start your server created a folder for pools:

Code: Select all

Wed 09 Aug 11:05.02: INFO    Creating folder: c:/temp/afanasy\pools
So no pools was stored before.
You should look at server logs, why it can't create a folder.
May be permissions problem.

ps
Better not to use Windows for any servers.

Thank you for the reply Timur. Linux may be an option, but I am currently compiling my own on Windows so compiling is non-trivial.
I will look into the permissions issue.

I changed the server to start as a scheduled task. There is an option to "Run with highest privileges", which I assume means as Administrator. All seems to be working now.

Thank you Timur.

And gone again. I've now started using Non-sucking service manager to create a service. Let's see how that works.

No matter how (by what) your afserver starts.
You should find out why it can't write|read store.

I have since moved the server to Linux (all clients are still windows). So far everything is much more stable.
All times are UTC
