    HI
    Is there a log that shows why the dedicated server closes ?
    I'm not sure how the server is expected to react to AI driver sessions and sessions wit real drivers.
    I have 1 track and 1 car with 10AI min.
    What is expected of the dedicated server after all sessions are done ?
    Should server exit or keep running after all sessions are completed ?

    Here is what I got
    Simple fixed setup, with 10AI 40 slots, Qualify 3 laps, and Race 20 laps.
    Currently the server cycled from one session to another with 10 AI. Is this expected to continue forever with no drivers at all ?
    After 14hours of uptime the server seem to just quit.
    Does a real driver effect how the sessions cycle ?
    Should the server UI ever exit on it's own ? Does all sessions completed cause server UI to exit/close.

    Thanks

    As per this thread, no, the server never shuts itself down. It loops constantly.

    You need to work out whether the server is shutting down due to an error (check trace files), or crashing (might be something in windows event viewer, and could be some system issue or a plugin if you have any running).

    OK Thanks

    It's running now for 20 hours uptime. NO changes as far as I know. I'll check logs to see if I can find something.
    I am thinking "perhaps" someone logs into the session and it just starves for memory then dies or something. I'll check the logs and hunt around.

    It's good to know that it doesn't exit on it's own and I wanted to be sure I understood what is expected. Thanks this helps a lot.
