Server is not restarting automatically

    Okay so issue here. Everytime my server restarts I get this message. This is preventing my server from doing a proper automatic restart per 5 hours. My host is with Vilayer. (This is what I think is preventing the restarts.)

    I highly doubt Rust:IO is stopping your server. Could you provide your full log please?

    Here is a full log. As you can see once the server restarts it looks like rustio is trying to update and it shuts the server down over the restart which is why I feel like it keeps hanging after a restart.

    Rust:IO doesn't need to restart to update, it updates a standalone DLL and reloads it. The DLL you install yourself is a wrapper that handles all of that.

    You know that the "restart" command doesn't actually restart your server, right? It's just a glorified shutdown command with a countdown. The Rust:IO unloading at the end is normal, just as the other plugins unload. I don't see it hanging up, or causing the server to shutdown. Your TimedExecute settings are the only thing shutting it down, but as I said, the restart command is just a shutdown command. The only way your server would start again, is if your host provides some sort of process/server monitoring to start it again automatically.

    Well correct me if I am wrong but it does automatically restarts your server my last host did it perfectly fine. So I am sure it does restart it. But vilayer provided the rustio plugin in their mod manager so I am going to uninstall it and then test. I have never had any issues with auto restarts until I got to this host so I do not know where you are getting it doesn't auto restart. But I could be wrong. I have seen it on tons of other servers too. idk

    It really doesn't, your last host provided that service, not the server itself. The Rust server has no way to restart itself after it has been shutdown.

    Weird then guess Ill be switching hosts then :( So rustio shouldnt be trying to update like that in the log after the server goes down everytime?

    It isn't updating, it is shutting down. You could contact your host to see if they provide a means to start the server automatically.
