My log gets spammed by this "error message" non-stop while hosting. It's been going on for about 3 months. Hosting off of Linux.

Any idea what's up?

Have you considered updating your BYOND version to the latest? http://www.byond.com/download/

Everything I've seen thus far indicates that that error likely occurs around login/logout, so it could potentially be helpful to post any code that is called when players log in or out though, ideally, updating your server's BYOND version may help.

Ref=5:xx refers to a client, so I think what you're seeing is something cropping up around logout. I've seen this too and I can't quite figure out why it comes up. It may have something to do with winget(). My guess is it's a fairly old bug that shows up more often now due to our increased interaction via the interface. I don't think however that it's harmful in any way.
