For more information, see this post on the main blog.The version to be deployed is currently on the “Second Life Beta Server” channel of the Preview Grid (Aditi).
We have discovered a somewhat increased crash rate and a likely memory leak affecting some simulators in version 1.23.0. This has not yet had a widespread effect on the grid. However, if we leave it running, problems may compound. We will be reverting all regions on 1.23.0 to 1.22.4 in a rolling restart starting at 8PM tonight.
(This roll has been superceded by the rolling restart to revert 1.23.0 to 1.22.4.)After this morning’s rolling restart of half the grid, a problem was discovered with “floating text” over objects (SVC-2633). We have fixed that problem. We will be rolling out the fixed server version tonight (Friday night) at 8PM to all regions currently running server version 1.23.0. (That includes regions restarted last night and this morning.) The remaining regions (those currently on 1.22.4) will be restarted tomorrow morning for the deploy. For more information, see this post on the main blog.
The new server version which started rolling out today (currently deployed to half of the regions) has been found to contain a bug related to floating text, which results in text running together into one line.Affected residents can reset scripts to make the text appear correctly, which will last until the region is restarted.We believe we have identified the source of the bug, and will be testing a fixed version immediately.Related Jira: https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SVC-2633Related blog: Rolling Restart Thu/Fri/Sat July 10-12 â€" Please Test Server Version 1.23 on the Preview Grid Now!
