GameDBD error

Ok so, everything was running fine, and has been for a couple of days.

I haven't edited anything, but I started up my little virtual machine just 10 minutes ago, and this is occuring when I use start.sh

---GameDBD----
err : Initialize storage environment failed



then later on in GDelivery

---GDeliveryD---

err : gdelivery :: connect gameDB failed

Has anyone else had this occur? Like I said... I hadn't edited anything just started occuring when I booted up my VM last.

*This is on Asgborges 1.4.4 Release*

It would appear that your game DB is screwed. Delete the game DB and you'll be fine. One of the ways this can happen/be avoided is making sure you always properly shut down. Your MySQL DB should be fine BTW... It surely seems the game DB is much more 'sensitive' / 'picky'...

Ahh, do I just replace it?

And yes, I can login, it just no longer pulls the roles across which is a shame.
Unfortunately, this does seem to be my fault, as I was a bit hasty to get off, as it is a VM I just screwed it off basically.

Thanks for the quick reply

Sort of... You don't have to manually replace anything though since when you delete the game database files the next time gamedbd is ran it will automatically create an empty and new DB :wink:

So, locate you game DB files and delete them all (obviously while all the 'services' are OFF) and then re-start the server, it will then automatically create a new and empty DB for you :):

Ahh, yeah that makes complete sense :)

Thankyou for your time

...And just in case you don't know what you're looking for, you're looking for a directory with the following files in it (these are your game database files [delete them all]):

Spoiler:

auction
base
city
clsconfig
config
equipment
factionfortress
factioninfo
factionname
factionrelation
friends
gtask
inventory
mailbox
messages
order
rolename
sellpoint
serverdata
shoplog
status
storehouse
syslog
task
translog
user
userfaction
userstore
waitdel
webtrade
webtradesold
