Hello all,

Yeah, I have the same issue at 5am with the automatic restart of the server, it seems that only fails with the restart of the 5 am, because during previous hours without players it restart the servers to update it without issues:

Regards,
Tranko.

[Tr4il]

+1, exactly the same issue, server does not restart at 5am.

[Dunny88]

I am having the same issue. Restart causes server to fail.

[dnbrainwash]

Same issue here, can we turn the restart off?

[bubylou]

Same issue here, can we turn the restart off?

You can. I set the UPDATE_CRON and RESTART_CRON to an empty string to stop all automatic restarts. This has been working for me so far.

Interestingly setting only UPDATE_CRON did not fix it so this issue appears to be with any restart not just for updates. I'm still trying to figure out why.

[Dimand]

I am also seeing the same issue. Server stops at 5am (UTC time).

[MartenBE]

I am still having the exact same problem ...

[DarKZoNe482]

I'm having the same problem.
