[0.17.17] Dedicated Server no longer shutting down

Post by pingger »

Hi,

TLDR:
- Server keeps running after "/quit" and only saves+unloads the map, no way to stop except SIGINT.

Long:
I have an automatic update checker and installer, which (upon finding an update) automatically closes any running Factorio Server on my Server Machine (Windows Server 2012). Until 0.16 the Server would save and exit when sending the "/quit" command to the server.

But since 0.17 (don't the exact update, but 0.17.17 is affected) the Server no longer exits, but only saves the World and unloads it.

After that the Server is in a state in which no longer accepts any clients or commands. Only way to close is SIGINT, which is a fairly bad way since it usually involves a human interacting with a console window. But when the normally the server is started without any console window.

Thanks for the report. Are you running the server on Windows or Linux?

What kind of tool do you use to automatic update your Windows headless server?

You'll need to make a new report with new steps to reproduce because it doesn't happen for us.
