  • I made a post regarding this but it seemed to not gain traction due to it being messy. ill remake it here, basically there is a chance for the server to crash or just freezes indefinitely when a player does a command, like /tpa or /rtp usually resulting in this error message

    [10:40:00] [Server thread/ERROR]: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Metaspace

    One time it even happened when a player joined the server. Upon re-starting after the crash the data is abit messed up it even caused item duplications


    Server Software: PaperMC

    Version: 1.17.1

    This small problem has slowly became a bigger problem over the days

  • Even though the log shows the out of memory error I can't see it crash

  • Yes, it just stays like that indefinitely until manual action is taken. Sometimes it crashes or the server just freezes indefinietly like that. When the server freezes the server panel shows people are still in-game but in reality everybody got kicked out and are unable to join back

    Maybe you have to many plugins so you can try removing some plugins or try reinstalling the server with the plugins
