edit the file exec/sbbsecho.ini and set the single line "Debug=true". Then run a Windows debug viewer (like https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/debugview)
I assume you meant exec/sbbsexec.ini, so that's the file I modified :)
I did. :-)
Debugger is running. Hopefully I capture something interesting the next time a crash happens.
Cool. You have to run it DbgView as Administrator too. You should be seeing log messages whenever any online 16-bit DOS programs are run from sbbs.
This logged error is likely the same issue reported by DesotoFireflite and recently resolved:
https://gitlab.synchro.net/main/sbbs/-/commit/9445866c80a38b5ee6c170ea8d68227c8497de03
There's no reports if it causing a door game to crash however. It was just a logged error that was in fact a harmless condition (trying to send data to a process that has terminated).
