Re: [Opensim-dev] Using Socket polling for UDP receive handlers

Often processing incoming packets can require exclusive access to scene data structures. I'd avoid using a threadpool task (FireAndForget) to process a incoming packet to avoid potential lock contention and threadpool task exhaustion. On Thu, Apr 24, 2014 at 9:30 AM, matt lehmann wrote: > Hello,

Using the -console=basic option is a possible way to clear up these exceptions. I see this happen when running OpenSim in anything other than a vanilla console. I seem to recall that it is an upstream (mono or possibly log4net) issue. On Dec 2, 2014 3:29 PM, "Markus Metzmacher" wrote: > Hello A

In theory, there is a -background switch that can run OpenSimulator without a console [1]. That said, I've not heard/seen anybody use this for some time. [1] http://opensimulator.org/wiki/OpenSim.exe_Command_Line_Options On 03/08/14 09:34, Markus Metzmacher wrote: Hello All, I installed the
