Crash to server screen bug found - Also found cause

Post by notadruid » Fri Jul 02, 2004 1:18 pm

As this isn't a crash to desktop bug, I doubt I can provide debug information, but please let me know otherwise. I am using the June 27 release.

Everquest ran normally without MQ2 active. When MQ2 was loaded, it would crash to server and give 1018s for about 5 min and then let me back in. Crashes happened about once every 10 min, (half the time online was spent waiting for 1018). Anyway, the cause of the crashes was a background application, iTunesHelper, a program that checks for CDs and MP3s on the drive and loads them into iTunes, a music buying / playlist making interface for iPod devices.

Closing that program ceased the crashes to server.
