Hello, After a couple hours of uptime, my Server will kick all of the players, and then spam "Read Timed Out" and "Connection Reset" Something like this... Build: #2615 Code: [INFO] Read timed out [INFO] Read timed out [INFO] Read timed out [INFO] Read timed out [INFO] Read timed out [INFO] Read timed out [INFO] Read timed out [INFO] Read timed out [INFO] Connection reset [INFO] Read timed out [INFO] Read timed out [INFO] Read timed out [INFO] Read timed out [INFO] Read timed out [INFO] Read timed out [INFO] Connection reset Now, when I type any command in the console, it doesn't output anything. Example: randomcommand Should return the "command not found" message, but it doesn't return anything. When this problem happens, I have to cancel my screen session, and start it up again, since "stop" won't work. When I do, it just happens after a couple hours of downtime once again, like clockwork.

It's a pretty major bug, and it's hindering my Server. EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.
Its not a host problem, its a plugin using unsafe threads. You will need to find out what plugin is causing it, I had the same problem with pex and removing it fixes it. bpermissions is much better then pex anyway.
Oh - PEX is causing it? Figures - not updated that in a while. I'll test that and get back to you. Thanks for the tip though. (not switching to bPerms though >:3) >.< Not been updated. I guess we have no choice but to migrate. :/ Okay... I think Sentry, ChatManager and/or PEx have some part in this. If anyone has more tips, please post. Really needing help here.

Its a will known bukkit bug. Other clients and myself and Eternal Realms and some others have the samething happening!
On a side note: Be sure not to use "/reload" unless you are using a recent development build of CraftBukkit (roughly CB2620 or higher), or a CB version from more than five months ago, because unless i am mistaken a bug has been around since then: https://github.com/Bukkit/CraftBukkit/commit/eea7fc2067d7d7fc08c72414b662d0a065495264 I also discourage using "/reload" with players online (including admins...), because of the load order of plugins is not certain and the permissions plugin not being present while checking permissions might have unwanted effects. Edit: If you used /reload with PEX you might have suffered that bug.
Damn - any way to fix this? Because temporarily removing PermissionsEx didn't fix it. Now that I think of it: I only removed the jar. Will the folder be what plugins look for when deciding what permissions plugin is used, or is it just the .jar?
Only the jar counts (or a jar). Without a jar, the folders don't mean anything to CraftBukkit. I guess this is subject to "plugin list" and checking for updates of all plugins.
I have a similar issue on my server. Looking through your plugin list, the ones we have in common are: WorldBorder, Vault, PermissionsEx, , WorldGuard, Modifyworld, , Multiverse-Core, Multiverse-NetherPortals. I have ruled out WorldBorder causing the problem (at least, I still get the problem with world boarder disabled). The problem is a bit random, it normally takes a day or so to show up. For the past two days, I have taken "Vault" out of service (along with BOSEconomy and MasterPromote). To date I haven't had a repeat of "[INFO] Read timed out". So I am starting to suspect Vault (although no one else seems to have highlighted an issue with Vault) As background, my server runs on Ubuntu 12.04 / 64bit, and uses open Java.
I'm having the same issue, but the only one I have in common with you is Vault. It might be vault, but here's the thing... I have used vault for days before this started happening, and it was only until recently. I don't know why all of a sudden it started acting up, it was fine before.
This can be caused by a lot of plugins, anything that tries to access threads unsafely will cause this. No, no its not. It is a plugin problem.
Its not vault -- i got a repeat of the problem today without Vault, BOSEconomy and MasterPromote loaded. I will try "modifyworld" today.
It might not be vault, I have a topic here: http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/read-timed-out.127539/ The plugin developer of vault responded to it and suggested that it might be a problem with one of the plugins that require vault, and that's why disabling vault fixes it, because it disables the plugin that is trying to use Vault. I would recommend just going through your plugins and adding each one at a time to see if it fixes it or not, or if you can find a better method to troubleshoot which plugin is causing it.
