Hello,

Now I'm having a problem using SFS in VPS with pre-installed Debian.
I connecting to VPS with PuTTy. Telling to start SFS with ./sfs start

It starts sucefully. But after I close session in PuTTy , SFS stops.

This problem has got only SFS. Other apps (for example XAMPP) runs fine also if i close session.

It works fine for me (with PuTTy) where I can start ./sfs and close down the console.

Smartfoxserver can stop automatically after "./sfs start" if there's an error. Do "./sfs console" and check if there's any errors. Also, if you started smartfoxserver using ./sfs console, closing down puTTy will end sfs.

I just had the same problem. Start the server again and exit the ssh session manually by typing exit then press Enter, then you can close Putty. The server should keep running. That's how it worked for me.
