Title: MC27 crashing with Windows Server 2019
Post by: krustycat on April 16, 2021, 06:06:37 pm
Hi,

My server only runs MC to play music.

About two weeks ago I finally upgraded from MC26 to MC27 version .79

I only use it to play music, but after 2-4 hrs it always crashes. With MC26 it was playing music for months, never crashing as it runs 24/7.

Windows Defender is turned off.

What do you need from me to try finding out what the issue could be?

Thank you.

Please read the Windows Defender thread here.  You can't turn it off.

Turned it back on, followed the instructions abou taming windows defender, but still crashes after a few hours.

So, turned it back off and went back to MC26 and it runs without any issues.

There must be something that changed with MC27, I guess, could be wrong of course.

Luckyly, I don't need MC27's new features just for playing music for now I believe, so I will stick with the previous version that has ran smoothly for a year.

Thank you anyway.
