Greets;
We recently encountered this error after a Mud crash and have been unable to figure out how to correct it so as to get the Mud up and running again. Any and all help/remedies/thoughts on this matter would be more than appreciated: Fri Feb 21 20:08:55 2003 :: [*****] FILE: forest.are LINE: 1 Fri Feb 21 20:08:55 2003 :: [*****] BUG: Boot_db: # not found. 1000.log (END) Thanks. :) You can either reply here, or email us @ |

Well, do you know what that error means in general?
Straight from the code (I'm assuming 1stMud is a ROM variant)... log_string ( strArea ); for ( ; ; ) { char *word; if ( fread_letter( fpArea ) != '#' ) { bug( "Boot_db: # not found.", 0 ); exit( 1 ); } So it's looking for a # that isn't there, on the starting line. Do you have a backup or original of that area file somewhere? Basically you have an incomplete area file somehow, and that's your culprit... |
