[MC] Server back up... kinda

Wol

In Cryo Sleep
After the issues with prom and the downtime we've had with it, we're trying a MPUK minecraft server for a while.

Hopefully we're going to see how well it runs with our worlds, if its particularly laggy or slow in areas / doing certain things.

It also has a new nether world, as we've scrapped the old world from the pre-nether structures days as per the poll we put up last month, so you should now be able to start making potions!

The address is at 85.236.101.7:28465

Go forth and mine! :D

Can you define unplayable? Just laggy? or functional screwups?

mining and placing blocks is very laggy, and the world takes ages to load, each chuck takes 20-45 sec to load and mobs and animals suffer from a lot of lag. If this prob is my end any advice would help

Looks like Wol is going to become one of those customers MPUK hate when he complains about the server ;)

Can't really complain.

I'm looking at updating to 1.1 at the moment. unfortunately 11Mb file and upload at work which maxes out at 15kB/sec.....

Takes a while.

hm. seems somewhat borked at the moment. for some reason its not coming up, essentials keeps trying to connect to a database even though its set to "none" in the config.

CPU usage was fairly low before, ram was normal as far as I could tell, but there were a load of the "could not keep up" errors :S. Will have a closer look at a later date.

If it's just a matter of uploading via FTP or whatever, give me a prod and a link to a file and I don't mind uploading for you. I've got some 4.5mbps upload.

Or you could have already done it already anyway, so yeah. :P

the issue was that it was just taking forever at work, so rather than taking like half a minute at home, it was taking like half an hour at work or something stupid. MAnaged to get it updated last week and it was up over the weekend.

Ah, orite then. :P All good then~ :P

Right, provided vibs stops breaking prom, we should be okay to migrate back to that and see if the lag issues we've had reported decide to follow us at all. We're still dealing with updating some of the plugins to get it back up and running.

In the future, we're looking at moving from the current mc-overviewer maps to dynmap, which allows renders in realtime, rather than nightly, and has some other funky interface things :)

Well prom was back up last night and the MC server seems to be running with a bit less lag when moving around. We've put dynmap on the server too which looks quite nice.

Unfortunately, dynmap then tried rendering several gigs of images into a drive with 1 gig spare, failed, and then prom segfaulted / crashed when moving a file, went down this morning, and hasnt come back up :S

So..... yeah! No idea whats happened there. Will keep updating when I know more.

Just wondering how i view the dynmap.

You wait for vibs to get home and turn prom on again. lol. in theory its at a different port on the server to the normal web one, but we're looking at trying to tie this in together with the normal site. The first renders were quite nice. and i could pretty much see it snowing live in realtime :) So rather than building something and seeing the player marker thing update live, but the graphics underneath being a day old, they should now update a bit faster :)
