detected incorrectly running system clock

[YJeeper]

Hello!
My TS3 beta 18 logs this:

2010-03-02 20:56:06.632750|WARNING |PktHandler | | detected incorrectly running system clock

10-15 times and more. With every error, some or all people get disconnected from the server.

It is a bug ? The system is a W2k3 32bit server (Xen Virtualized) with 8 gig ram and a Core i7-920 and X58 Board (Hetzner EQ4). It's the only guest on this system.
Other applications run fine like IIs or mysql etc. without probs.

Anwsers like: "Dont virtualize" are crap and unacceptable! Server Virtulization is an industry standard and must be even functional with TS3.

Please help and/or list it as bug that must be eleminated.

Thanks, Pierre

Hey,

this is not a bug, your system time is messed up. On windows we use the query performance counter functionality to measure time...msdn website says:

On a multiprocessor computer, it should not matter which processor is called. However, you can get different results on different processors due to bugs in the basic input/output system (BIOS) or the hardware abstraction layer (HAL).

If you are indeed seeing this problem you can work around it by forcing the ts3 processor to use one specific core only.
