More mac problems (Server shuts down randomly)

[Argitoth]

OK! I got it. (I just went directly to where the dominions3 is located and did ./Dominions3) I'm running text mode and I went to the Energy Saver preferences and unchecked "turn off hard drive when possible." That was probably the thing that killed the servers.

WELL WHAT DO YOU KNOW? The server shut off AGAIN! Here's what the commandline looks like after I tried to get it started again:

Code:

No it is not. This spins down the motors of the hard drives when there hasn't been any read/write accesses to them for a longer time.

My Mac is CLOSING down the server after it says "Broken pipe." The problem you are linking to is one where the client has trouble connecting.

sooo... I don't understand how that has to do with my problem UNLESS "Broken pipe" could mean all sorts of things.

[lch]

Broken pipe means that the (persistent) connection has been aborted. Going into sleep mode would cause this, yes.

[Argitoth]

How do I stop Mac from going to sleep mode? I already stopped the computer of the Mac from going from sleep mode (went to energy options and set it to Never)

Do I need to do with with the screen too?

[lch]

Google is your friend.

Assuming you have set "put the computer to sleep if it is inactive for" to Never (according to http://www.xvsxp.com/system/power_management.php - I don't do Apple) and there isn't something in the Schedule which is forcing it to, then you should check if autologout is disabled in "System Preferences -> Security -> Log out after X minutes of inactivity". (according to http://forums.macosxhints.com/archiv...p/t-68164.html)

[Argitoth]

Autologout has been disabled the entire time.
