Chatserver.exe/UCS
 

I'm running a private EQEmu server with UCS. Unless I reboot once a day the chatserver will inevitably crash between 24 and 36 hours. I wondered if anyone else had this problem? I'm running fairly recent versions of everything on a Windows XP based system.

You're not the only one. I can't figure it out either. Tried doing a dyndns.org id, tried using eqemu's channels, tried same/different ports, etc. And nothing in the logs. Its just like it works for awhile, then poof.

I've been testing this out lately with my private windows server. I left the
server up and running for over 24 hours, with no toons logged in. I kept an
eye on it, and nothing special happened.
Just a few minutes ago, I looked at the chatserver window, it was still up.
Then I logged a toon on, and POOF, got this error in the chat window:
Database Error: Lost connection, attempting to recover ....

But it must of re-connected itself, I did not get any messages in my client,
telling me the chatservice was unavailable. I logged the toon off and then
back on again, the chat service was still working,
But the chatserver window did not output anything past that Error line I got
before.
Nothing in the log files.

Yes it seems logging a toon in is what triggers it to crash when it DOES crash. I've never experienced it randomly crashing when no one is playing or logged in.

Let me know if you guys track this down...

Mine does the same, always has since I built my test server in January.

Windows Install, compiled on the same machine it is running on, WinXP SP3, VS 2008 C++ Express.
