I am not sure where crash logs can be found for a linux server. Here I am only seeing a 2GB core dump file.

Please let me know if I can provide more information. It is not difficult to reproduce this crash.

Same issue here.

I did some further investigation. (vanilla arma, only praire fire, dedicated server running on ubuntu)

For me the crash only happens on certain missions. On some missions (e.g Liberation) everything is working fine.

AntiStasi for example crashes the server while sending the mission data to the client. DiretAction on the other hand lets the client finish the download and only crashes the server when the mission finished initializing.

Maybe this crash is somehow related with the size of the mission?

I only tested with SOG Prairie Fire + Domination. The number of enemies are configurable but the crash occurs with any settings, even with "small" mission parameters.

possibly related to:

no. Can't know whats wrong here without crashdump, and I'm not sure if I event want the linux core dump.

There is a update to CDLC server files coming soon, maybe that fixes this

Same issue as mentioned above. CDLC Campaign missions seem to be ok, but Mike Force, Antistasi and Vindicta crash with exactly this error.
Zeus Missions also don't work.
Is there any ETA on the update to the CDLC files?

Weirdly enough, KP Liberation seems to work.
Can I provide you with any more logs to help moving this along?

After the CDLC update I was able to run a large Domination mission overnight. Looks fixed?

Will check tonight.

Can cofirm. Had no issues at all playing a variety of missions.

Some server files on linux were corrupted and fixed in last update, that'll be it then
