My SBBS has *never* crashed, in over 7 years. Granted, it runs        Ga> on Linux, but there are plenty of folks running on Windows that don't see        Ga> crashes, either.              I ran my Synchronet BBS in Windows for many years, and I saw random crashes       occasionally. It was often enough that I found a utility that would check       whether the SBBS control panel was running, and if not, run it; I set that up       to run periodically via the Windows Task Scheduler. I did some debugging, and       as far as I could tell, the crashes looked like they were related to the       Mozilla JavaScript library that Synchronet was using, but I didn't go further       to get more information to see what exactly in the JS library was causing the       crashes.              It's interesting of other Synchronet sysops in Windows hadn't been seeing       periodic crashes, but the fact that a SBBS check utility exists for Windows       seems to suggest for me that other Synchronet sysops saw the same issue and       someone decided to make a utility to re-run it if it's not running.              I wondered if the crashes were due to something I was doing in some of my JS       mods for Synchronet, but it seemed to random to easily track down. And now       that I'm running my BBS in Linux, I feel like it hasn't been a noticeable       issue anymore for me.              Nightfox              ---        þ Synchronet þ Digital Distortion: digitaldistortionbbs.com        * Origin: Vertrauen - [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.net (1:103/705)       SEEN-BY: 10/0 1 102/401 103/1 13 17 705 105/81 106/201 124/5016 128/187       SEEN-BY: 129/14 153/7715 154/110 214/22 218/0 1 215 601 610 700 840       SEEN-BY: 218/860 880 226/30 227/114 229/110 112 206 317 400 426 428       SEEN-BY: 229/470 700 705 266/512 280/464 291/111 301/1 320/219 322/757       SEEN-BY: 342/200 396/45 460/58 633/280 712/848 902/26 5075/35       PATH: 103/705 218/700 229/426           |
