Info string length exceeded Options

[Matéos]

Hello,

When I get new map on servers, I play it alone to see all objectives to do. But this times my server don't want to start. I get "Unpure PK3" errors, and when I open console I see "BIG Info string length exceeded", and after map launching (Spawn defined etc). I use originals CFGs files, and I get this with all mods.

What's wrong ?

Thanks.

you have to remove some "sets" commands from your config

iam sure that happens only at 2.55

It depends more on the use of unactual mods.

when using g_serverInfo flags 1, 2, 4, or 8 the server will populate
the relevant cvars with "." characters to their maximum length
initially. This will prevent "Info string length exceeded" crashes
from occurring mid-game if the admin has added too many 'sets'
cvars to support the g_serverInfo flag. (The crash will instead
happen when the server starts.)

1st : You mean in server.cfg ? What sets I have to delete ?
2nd : I have 2.60b version.
3rd : I have the most update version of mods (NoQuarter 1.2.3 etc...), and I have this bug with ETmain too. What I have to do ?

I'm sorry, I just know how modify CFG, no create or delete a line...

Thnaks for help.

(NHLfan): Aren't "sets" always optionally?

[Matéos]

And so ... ?

[Krauersaut]

You've got too much "sets". Delete some or delete all.

Yeah... Done and always this problem. I reset the default objectivecycle.cfg and delete some sets in server.cfg, and always BIG Info string lenght exceeded writed in console.

I delete all CFG files ?

Post or PM me your server.cfg. Don't forget to remove the passwords first.

just had this problems today I added 3 more sets lines

sets .Admin "*WF*Mcbeth"
sets .Clan "Way For Fun"
sets .Email "mac_beth@hotmail.fr"
sets .Host "http://dediserverhosting.com/"
sets .Location "NewYork"
sets .URL "http://www.wf-gaming.net"
sets .INFO "Sexy Girls, Free Beer!"
sets .NAME "Way For Fun XP Save No Bots"
sets .XFIRE "bethymcbeth"

so server crashed the first times and I deleted the 3 lines added today
the previous lines we have them since years and we never crashed
and strange cuz after many hours we crashed again same w/o the lines anymore and to fix had to do a full server restart ...
