MajorMud Corruptions

[Raiden]

Syntax --



Working on importing some new areas from one of my editors. Import it through the database importer. Compile, run an offline recovery and then bring the board back up only to discovery it's gone into it's Majormud corruption utility.



I've tried it twice now and it's done the same thing. The area's work fine on my editors test board, what in the world could be going wrong?



Any information would be appreciated!

make sure you have the correct NMR version for your majormud version, other than that, then make sure there are no conflicts with the imported areas with the original files.

Running 1.47n, have a version of mmud n running. No reason the two should be causing conflicts.

"Majormud corruption utility" ?

Whatever program begins to run when MajorMud has a database corruption. Stops users from entering mud and makes you reinstall everything.

I've gotten those on more than once instance. Usually happens when an invalid attribute is assigned to a monster or invalid spell based attack. At least in Lunars case that is.

Ok, so no other program actually is running then. I wasn't sure if you were talking about the recovery console (wccmmutl.exe). There isn't any utility running, it's just some code mud does. I have only seen those errors on an unpatched dll. Check out this thread (http://www.forumshq.com/showthread.php?t=4914&highlight=attempting+fix).

Ok -- So that sounds like it may be the problem... With an unpatched dll that is... But the question is, how do I change/edit the dll?

Answering that question would break the rules of this message board. (hint)

[Raiden]

Ahh gotcha.



Anyhow... It's definitely not an unpatched .dll... Otherwise I don't believe I would be able to have the item, race, class, monster edits in that I currently do.



So, I guess the question becomes, what else could be causing this problem?



The edits are working fine on our test board, but when we import them to Boink, they corrupt the mud.
