Attempting to debug zone errors - Humbly request assistance
 

Good Day,

I have spent the better part of this month working through little issues that have popped up in our new server. I have come across errors that I have not been able to track down or resolve through forum searches or other avenues..

I would greatly appreciate the community's assistance with these issues.

To lay some groundwork

We are running the legit server "Good Times Gang"

Emu Ver - A0.8.0
PEQ DB - 1265 (Latest SVN)
Server - W2K Ent. 8GB AMD x2 2.9Ghz
Network - 18Mbit FIOS
Zone Config - Load 25 dynamic and 19 static (primarily zones with transport scripts IE: Nexus)
Clients - The members of our community are running the Titanium package. I have provided them with work instructions on how to optimize for dual core and if they are running Windows 7/Vista, launching tips.



Issue 1 - Nexus Scion going up
I've spent some time testing the various traveling devices such as translocators and boats. All seems to work well except for the Nexus scions going back to Luclin. I am able to port down from the nexus to NK, however, when the script runs to kick me backup, the client disconnects from the server.

I have tested this with a GM and non-gm account, with Windows 7 and Windows XP with the same results.


Issue 2 - Missing path files
In trying to debug my server and provide a stable environment, sorting through my log files, I've seen a lot of these errors. Is this normal? I've downloaded our server via SVN, so I would think I'd have all the file necessary.

Issue 3 - Random disconnects from clients
I am trying to figure out if this is a client side error or server. Clients will be doing their thing and just get dropped. Here is the error I've seen in the logs



Thank you all for your time and assistance with helping me provide a stable server for our community.

Upgraded to perl 5.10.1 - I had followed the apparent older Windows Setup on the wiki recommending 5.8. Once I installed 5.10.1 , I downloaded the latest compiled binary via SVN and updated the DB to 1365 and was able to launch the server. Going to see if this makes a difference on any of the above.

This change fixed the zone up to nexus script.
