(FIX) line xx: unterminated quote

[snapplepeach]

Well, a fix for the "unterminated quote" errors that have worked for me and a friend of mine has been narrowed down to in using apostrophe's inside quotes.


Example..

MOTD = "Isn't a test server." = Provides the unterminated quote error.
MOTD = "Isnt a test server." = Everything loads smoothly and is ready to accept connections. (atleast for me :o)


So, check all of your configs, and if you are using apostrophe's in your configs for names, descriptions, or pretty much anything for that matter, removing them will fix it, sure itll break it grammatically, but atleast the server will function.


Hope this helps all of you who are recieving the error, but couldn't find a fix for it.


This has been confirmed working for antrix private wow servers and whatever lineage2 private servers are out which are recieving this error from config files..

You should be able to use a backslash before the apostraphe to use it and have things run smoothly, I.E.:

MOTD = "Isn\'t a test server."

Give that a try and see if it works.

Yep, that worked for me, but I didnt really need it :P

I figured as much I figured I'd share the knowledge though as I knew that from what coding I have done. The \ key negates the special affects of the immediate following characters, such as single quotes, making it simply a single quote instead of a command.
