Server detected a backward timestamp

Thursday, July 17th, 2008

Here’s another one:
Server detected a backward timestamp
FMS server went frozing , actually only some applications got frozen and this showed up in the fms logs.
This was a huge issue as there were lots of applications running on the server and finding the frozen ones and reloading them wasn’t an easy job.

I’ve done some research on this error and found what might have been the cause for it. Seams that - in my case at least - i have an autorecord script running on each application and if the stream from witch i record gets reset (play/reset status messages) causes this error to come up and eventually frozes the application as some point.

Solution: i had to rewrite the streaming code and avoid the play/reset on the recorded stream , also stop the record before such a status message came up. This seamed to solve my problem.

I’d love to hear from you if you have any information about this error.
