Server restart on player death

Hello there, I'm one of the admin of one of the server on a server provider , and recently we have face a strange problem we have no idea where it could come from.

Each time a player die on the server, anyone, the server restart itself soon after. As I said, we have not even a clue of where it could come from, perhaps the mission file.
Perhaps someone could light the bulb?

Thanks (P.S: sorry if english mistake, not my native language)
PPS: didn't saw the server maintenance part of the forum
 
There is a mission file with monitor, loading screen, towing, lift, refuel and salvaging, but we don't really know if it have appear after or before this

Remove them one by one, see which one causes it. Or just start fresh and add them one by one.

You probably have some conflict that's leading to a fatal error or something, causing your sever to hang and reboot.
Did you add those all at once?
 
It was a mission file used already and working into another server, we have moved host and reused the mission file

Well, there could be any number of problems. What server build is it, the same as the last one? Other than that thought, there could be a million things wrong - does the same file still work with the other host? anything custom you didn't bring over?
 
yes, the file worked on the other host, dayz same version, well, we going to check that from what you said, mission file, if needed, I can upload it here
 
If your last host used a Reality build, it wont work on the likes of a stapo or pwnzor build. I will assume you used DayZ.st before. which uses Reality. Reality uses a custom HiveEXT.dll
 
But still the same problem more than likely I don't know what build HFB uses, but you may have to redo all your scripts with their supplied mission files.

HFB uses a custom reality build. I'm on HFB, but I was able to copy my mission/server pbos to my local reality install with no issues - tho I'm not sure I've died on my test server yet. Didn't try to move the DB.

What things did you bring over?

Did you have anything to handle playerdeaths, since that is when it is occuring? Like deathmessages? Do you use BE?

Really, the only good surefire plan for you guys is to re-add all your scripts/changes - because we don't know what the difference is, and there is a lot of code to work through. I'll let you know if I die and the server reboots by itself.

It's not that bad to do - readding scripts - and it will help you in the long run (eg for dayz updates, you'll know what goes where).
