next update:
I changed max-connections to 40 as mentioned before; don't know if this was the reason for the crashes, but may be better. ;)

Now, after rebooting, I started amuled and the logfile reads "Hasher: Starting to create MD4 and AICH hash for file:..."  8o
Can't believe this.  :rolleyes:

Well, this could take a while.  :P This is quite interesting...  :D

*sigh*
I knew it wouldn't be THAT easy...  :(

Well, hashing proceeded and anything seemed to be ok (didn't try amulecmd/amuleweb, wanted to check normal stability first).

Suddenly i noticed on my other PC, that my mailserver (on the OS/2-machine) wasn't responding anymore.
I couldn't see any special, but decided to restart the mailer - whoops, a crash while exiting?
Tried to stop amuled - no reaction. A simple DIR-command froze my command-window, the task-switcher reported non-reactive other programs; everything became more and more sluggish. Finally even the clock stopped.  :rolleyes:
So I gave up and pressed Ctrl-Alt-Del - I can't believe it, the message "shutting down..." came as expected but nothing more! 8o
The first time for YEARS I had to do a hard reset.  X(

Since I have to work again tomorrow, I'm going to stop testing for now; I won't risk the server crashing while I'm not around...  ;(

maybe you should try all this on a "test" server since non of us really have OS/2 and god only knows how good it is on that OS aswell....
so it might be some wx issues or maybe on our code....
I also dont know about the sharedir.dat on *nix you just put

/path/to/dir

and you are all set...

Too bad, but I don't have another OS/2-PC here. :(
The pathes are now ok (standard-notation as usual in OS/2 like "T:\DATA\"); whyever it took lots of tries until they have been accepted...

I was hoping, emule_os2 or another OS/2-user would be reading here and give me some clues, but it looks like I have to wait.

Next update: This morning the machine crashed again (w/o amule, of course)!  8o
The only other new software installed in the last weeks was the BOINC-client, so now I disabled it, too.

But I have a feeling, very BAD things are happening here.  ;( X(

One thing to keep in mind about shareddir.dat is that the directories listed there are shared non-recursively.  There's no way to share a directory truly recursively.  You have to list every subdirectory that you want shared explicitly.  The aMule GUI provides a shortcut to do this for you, but (for example) any new subdirectory you create in the future won't automatically be included.

With all your crashes you should probably start again, fresh.

To create the share files list, open the configuration file in Enhanced Editor, delete everything and enter the directories in the form c:\dir This is so that it will create a unix style text file without a ^Z at the end. Try doing only a few directories at a time in case one of the directories is causing the problem.

Well, I tried again over the weekend, and what shall I say - works as designed...  ?(

But there seems to be a bug in the stats:
Code: [Select]
Statistics
   Uptime: 14667 Days 20 hours
   Transfer
      Session UL:DL Ratio (Total): 12.45 : 1
      Uploads
         Uploaded Data (Session (Total)): 3.27 GB (3.33 GB)... would be a nice uptime indeed!  :P
