Database problems
Okay, after fishing around on the forums I've concluded that it's down to possibly corrupt items existing in the DB. As I haven't added any customised items yet I'm happy to try and source the database with the latest dumpeditems table, to see if that works. Fingers crossed! I'll let you know when it's done.

I was going to post a new topic asking about this, but the forums seem to be throwing up errors when starting a new topic. Hrm. Anyway, I hope someone who knows about this will drop by this thread.
Right, well sorry if this is a bit of a silly question, but I was wondering if anyone could advise as to how many zoneservers I should have running for this server, considering that it's been having 10+ people trying to connect at times?
Note I said "trying" to connect, because I didn't realise until last night that I didn't have enough zoneservers running, therefore I think lots of people were getting turned away. :/ I only realised this when I myself tried to connect and kept getting 'zone not available' errors when there were 12 people online.
How many zoneservers does the more popular servers like Scorpious2k and The Grand Creation have running?
I was previously only running 5, but have now increased the number to 10.
So hopefully that will alleviate some of the 'zone unavailable errors'!
