zone worlds dissapearing

[muhi]

Hi all

Is there any reason why sometimes i come back to the server, the 5 msdos windows that are open running the zone servers on different ports, some have closed? I have noticed this a few times and would like to find out a way of why it is doing it and to stop it. Naturally I can't get any errors (if there are any) from the zone server as it has closed down by the time i get to the server.

any feedback would be appreciated.

This usually happens to me when there's a problem with the zone. It's hard to pinpoint exactly what's wrong with it. It could be something in the zones .cfg file or something as simple as a bad safe coordinate. I've changed the safe coordinate before and that has solved it. But then again, sometimes it doesn't help. I know it's a pain but the way I've gotten mine to work is to delete the .cfg file that has the problem and repatch. Someone else may be able to shed some light on this. If there's an easier way, I'd sure like to know it.
