Getting stuck when exiting server

I have just installed and tried out the reset plugin. Very nice, except I have a problem, which I have actually had all along manually shutting down the server. When I type exit in the console The server exits and then NWNX2Lib says its exiting and it hangs there. Nothing happens from that point onward. Any thoughts?

If I comment out the NWNx export LD Preload line it exits fine and even restarts when I place my while loop in. But after I uncomment it, it just hangs after NWNX2Lib exiting. I have tried to remove all the plugins except for the basic nwnx with no luck. I have even tried recompiling several times. The compile goes flawlessly but I still have the same problem. I have downloaded and made sure I have the latest version as of today, deleted the old .so files and recompiled. No Luck.

For now I'd be happy if it just would exit completely.
Using the reset plugin is kinda pointless if I can't get it to exit properly, any suggestions?

Thanks,

I had a similar problem, and it was solved by changing the version of reset plugin I was using, if I recall correctly. Maybe that's whats going on with you too.

I am using 0.2 of the Linux Reset Plugin.
Which I believe is the latest version.

It shuts down the server just gets stuck at that NWNLib2 thing.
It does the same even if I get rid of the plugin and just use NWNx.
In fact it does that if I rid all the plugins and use just the base nwnx.
If I type exit in the console, it hangs there.
If I remove Nwnx, it closes or restarts fine depending on what startup script I use.
One thing I noticed is that if I misspell the module name when loading, it trys the reboot or shutdown according correct. It doesn't hang. Only if it loads a module, any module will it hang and only if nwnx is there.

Not sure, but I'm thinking I have an NWNx issue outside the realm of the reset plugin. Its actually triggering the shutdown, but never ending nwnxlib2.

What version of NWNX core are you using? Did you compile it yourself or got the binaries somewhere?

Version 2.6.1 which I just re-downloaded a few days ago to make sure.
And Yes, I compiled it myself. No errors on compile that I'm aware of.
All Plug-ins seem to function fine.

Same issue,

I both deleted and put the .so file in and also recompiled it and tried it that way, no luck. Still sticks.

./configure and make install outputs

Fixed It!!

I had to remove both the Leto and Reset Plugins completely and then recompile them from their sources.

For some reason the already compiled .so files work but cause this problem.
Removing just one didn't do it, they both caused the issue.

I guess rule of thumb, always compile from the sources your .so files. Never used a precompiled .so for nwnx.
