Hi, I was just wondering if anyone is having problems with Oxide/uMod Core not loading on Rust server since this morning some time. 

It was working fine yesterday, but today it's not loading. Server starts up fine, but does not call oxide. Has something changed ?

I am Running on Windows server 2019, Rust is up to date, latest version of Oxide/uMod installed (deleted RustDedicated_Data, verified server to replace original game files, downloaded oxide several times (not cached version) but it's like the server isn't even aware it's there. 

Could an out of date mod cause oxide itself to not even load??

I can't see any logs since startup yesterday morning (servers restart every morning. We run 2 modded servers and they are both doing the same thing.

The only way Oxide would not load is if it isn't installed. Please check to make sure it is installed and check your logs for errors. Nothing has changed with how it loads.

I worked it out. It was due to my update script validating Rust server files every start, and deleting Oxide. I removed to update script on the modded servers, and it worked. I did have this in place last time I set up my servers, but that was years ago, and I completely forgot that the validate command in SteamCMD did this. Thanks.
