[Alle Warnings from Conan Server will be shown in Windows Eventlog]

* * *

Have noticed this a while back, if you run a Conan Exiles Server on Windows it will flood your Windows Eventlog with 3-15 messages per second !per server!.

This happens for every message, from warnings to erros, yet even if a player enter or leaves the server.  
I’m happy to share more details/logs to mods/devs.

In my opinion this stuff shouldn’t be logged to the eventlog, its for sure not the best to pass 10 messages per server per second to the Eventlog.

Operating System is Windows Server 2012 R2, no mods installed.

This issue needs some attention I think.

Since you can’t run one on Linux, I’m not sure what else you would use.

I can confirm this is happening, however I have not noticed that it causes any issues.

Heya, sorry that we missed your post on this when you originally made it. I’ve notified a dev about this to see what they think. Thanks for the screenshot and letting us know! I’ll give any updates when I can.

On the contrary there are several guides for setting up a Conan Exiles Linux server. Quite a few linked in this forum. So if that rumor was ever holding you back from a linux server I hope you reconsider.
