Still no answer or reaction on my ticket I sent to vilayer...
I ran the live sync update today which means I installed the last patch setting all pbo's back to default. The error still occurs...

Screwy sent me some links about authentication errors but in the end checking the logs again, I still cannot locate the issue and to be honest...as you know...I don't give a shit...anymore.

I also submitted a ticket about changing the ownership and if I would get back the donations..all about 88 Bucks...for sure not...but...also no answer on this ticket....

As you see I have not the slightest idea if the server will be back online or when...it's all in their hands now and as I know them they will simply shut down the ticket after 96 hours...

At the moment it seems we might change to another server, we are actually testing it out. It's a PVE sauerland map. Check this: 50.31.103.6:2312
This would mean that I will give up my server. But we talked already to an admin and maybe they involve me on some map editing or adding stuff to the traders someday. Actually I'm sick of the owner business but don't wanna loose the great community we raised over the time. So I would be glad if you would follow me to this US server we found. We are welcome there...

Thanks and cya soon hopefully,
Stoll

Drag him in here.

Sounds good. We can get back to this later when we changed map and decided which scrips to add.

Thanks so far for the research.

For your information:
As I tried to fix the server crash I also tried a rollback of the database.
I reloaded an old backup of it, what means that things you build or bought the last dayz may be lost.

Not a server issue and only for admins of interest:

Hello Dirk,

We want to inform all Arma customers that there has been an ongoing issue with the master BE Update servers.

This issue is preventing BE from updating and as a result RCON messages, including BEC messages are not being sent to the servers.

This is a global issue with BE and impacting all Arma based servers with BE enabled. We have received confirmation the issue is being worked on. However, this is not something we have control over and is a global issue.

Please refrain from putting in tickets regarding RCON and BEC messages not being displayed in-game. All tickets related to this issue will be closed.

Impacted Games:

Arma 2
Arma 2 CO
Arma 3 Wasteland
Arma 3
DayZ Package
Offical DayZ
DayZ Standalone

Best Regards,

Vilayer Support

We mentioned that already this day.
I know this as a permanent issue over the last months.
Not every time, but it occurs over and over again on some days.
Would be nice if they get rid of these Update Fails once and for all....

Concerning to the desync (red chain) I had a spontaneous suggestion. [idea]
The SQF file for the new trader cities is saved in the dayz_epoch.pbo
This means the data isn't loaded via the mission file, the one you all download when changes were made and joining the server.
Also the WAI folder is saved to the dayz_epoch.pbo

In the past I always saved the buildings (changes to the map) in the mission.pbo, which makes this one bigger and has to be downloaded before joining.
I guess this will influence also the performance of the server itself.
Maybe it's also the reason for some of you loosing connection so often.

It's nice to see how much data was added but why saving it to a place, when it's not needed in the end to download it by each of you.
Saving it to the other place means it's packed already and nothing has to be downloaded.

I will give it a try, hopefully fixing this annoying connection losses and desync.
