Well, surely there's nothing wrong with it, you know it HAS to make mathematical sense somewhere someway somehow :wink: :):

Ah right... in that case sorry for my mistake! I tought it was something wrong from wanmei... xD
Ok so I got a new problem, after installing new memory chips (2133) and booting up server, when trying to create a char is says name already taken no matter what name we are trying to use. How to solve this one ? thanks again for all help.
anyone who wants to see the error im experiencing, i can screen share on skype, jz5500
I will be a little more specific as to what I have done. I installed a new 343 base pw package. I installed psytracs release, got everything configured IP's, transferring my gshops, tasks, elements, etc. I booted up server to get the clsconfig auto created. I closed it. Copied over all files in dbdata from gamedbd directory (all except clsconfig) I also made an sql backup of dbo on old server and on new server opened navicat, and installed it like a backup. I fired server back up and all my data is there, but all char names are taken it says when trying to create a new char. Please inform me if I did this wrong, or if there is another file that needs removed, or copied or etc. TY and i hope this helps you guys understand better.
That certainly sounds weird, I would try deleting the uniquenamed data to see if perhaps that had anything to do with it...
I deleted all Uniquenamed data and it didnt help. However i did try deleting all the data in the gamedbd except clsconfig and it works again. so either something on the sql or gamedbd side is doing it.
was how i described it up above correct?
If so than maybe i missed a step
Well the sql has nothing to do with gamedbd, so... If deleting gamedbd resolves it perhaps your game db is screwed. You could always try to 'fix' it, but I don't know if anyone has ever really had success 'fixing' their 'broken' game DB =\
the backup/transfer one more time:
1) back up gamedbd's db EXCEPT for CLSCONFIG
2) run daemons on new destination 'server' to create new/blank/empty db files
3) STOP daemons
4) copy gamedbd's db backup to new destination 'server'
so I do not think there is much you could miss, unless you forgot to stop the daemons or something then I'm sure that could have fucked the DB files (If you tried to copy them while gamedbd was running)...
I do the same thing for dbo.sql right?
Dump sql and execute sql correct?
Got a fresh install of the image / server not yet started or anything. in a few I will create my db backup EXCLUDING clsconfig, and my dbo.sql that i dumped and copy over to new server and test as described above in hopes that it was an accidental user error. Ill post back here when done.
Ok, hopefully it all pans out for you!
Well bad news is i couldnt figure out what was causing that error. But good news is creating same char / class / name I can just use the xml data to restore char level inventory etc so its as if they never left and without the errors.
Fair enough... As tedious as it may be, it works :):
